Pride Month
June is the month to celebrate the LGBTQ community. But what do these letters stand for.
L is for Lesbian, women or non-men who are romantically or sexually attracted to other women. G is for Gay typically referring to men attracted to men, but can also be an umbrella term for anyone attracted to the same gender. B is for Bisexual individuals attracted to more than one gender. T is for Transgender people whose gender identity differs from the sex assigned at birth. Q is for Queer/Questioning. Queer is an inclusive term for sexual and gender minorities while questioning refers to individuals exploring their sexual orientation or gender identity. I is for intersex people born with physical sex characteristics that do not fit typical definitions of male or female. A is for Asexual/Aromantic/Agender/Ally. Asexual individuals who experience little or no sexual attraction. Aromantic are those who experience little or no romantic attraction. Agender those people who do not identify with any gender.
