LGBT Vs. GLBT LGBT モバイル

GQ JAPAN (ジーキュージャパン) 2011年 04月号 [雑誌]

日本国内では殆ど生活で接点が無いLGBT（レズビアン、ゲイ、バイセクシャル、性転換）に付いての海外での取り上げられ方が特集されています。広報活動や海外での厚生福利をLGBTへも平等に適用する等の企業活動やLGBTの有名人の写真リストが掲載されています。

海外出張などでは「政治」「LGBT」「贔屓にしているスポーツチーム」などの話題は余り触れない方が良いとされていますが、今回の特集によってLGBTに関してはある程度理解出来るのではと思います。

福山雅治のプライベートファッションショーや芸人のギャグをページ毎に紹介した記事も面白いです。

LGBT Vs. GLBT

Do you say LGBT or GLBT or queer or something different?

But pretty much everytime I say it, i get emails from people that are so upset that as a gay man, I didn't put the "G" first. To be honest, the reason I do it is because lesbians really face a double whammy of discrimination - first for being a woman, and secondly for being gay. So I put the "L" first in the acronym to recognize that. But really, if you think about it - transgender individuals probably face the most discrimination - and then most people don't even think bisexuality even exists. So maybe it should be TBLG? And then there's queer, but a whole bunch of people really don't like that. And maybe you're thinking, "What the big deal?" And sure there are plenty of other issues that deserve our time and attention, but it is something that matters to a lot of people and is certainly worthy of discussion. So - what do you say? GLBT? LBGT? LGBTUVWXYZ? And why do you say it?
