AI overview
LGBTQ is an acronym that refers to people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer or questioning—essentially, individuals whose sexual orientation or gender identity differs from heterosexual or cisgender norms. The term groups together these communities because they often share similar experiences and face comparable social challenges, making collective visibility and advocacy meaningful for their wellbeing and rights.
