What about those other combinations I keep seeing?


The "alphabet soup" of orientation and gender identity can sometimes be confusing.  In addition to LGBTS, you may see GLBT, LesBiGay, or even combinations with additional letters:

Q:      
Questioning, Queer
 
I:   
Inquiring, Intersexed or Intersexual
 
SBNN:   
Straight But Not Narrow (yes, it's real)
 

SGL:
 
Same Gender Loving (used primarily in the African American community)
 

Various contributors to our community may use different abbreviations according to their preferences.
