  We know what LGBT means but here's what LGBTQQIAAP stands for

  LGBT+ is an "inclusive" way to illustrate all the different identities in the longer acronym but here's a breakdown of what each of the letters in LGBTQQIAAP mean.

  L - lesbian: a woman who is attracted to other women

  G - gay: a man who is attracted to other men or broadly people who identify as homosexual

  B - bisexual: a person who is attracted to both men and women

  T - transgender: a person whose gender identity is different from the sex the doctor put down on their birth certificate

  Q - queer: originally used as a hate word, some people want to reclaim the word, while others find it insulting. It can be a political statement, suggest that someone doesn't want to identify with "binaries" (e.g. male v female, lesbian v straight) or that they don't want to label themselves only by their sexual activity

  Q - questioning: a person who is still exploring their sexuality or gender identity

  I - intersex: a person whose body is not definitively male or female. This may be because they have chromosomes which are not XX or XY or because their genitals or reproductive organs are

  LGBTQ
  Acronym for lesbian, queer , bisexual, transgender, and queer. The Q generally stands for queer when LGBTQ organizations, leaders, and media use the acronym.

  GLOSSARY

  The terms and definitions below are always evolving, altering and often signify different things to different people. They are provided below as a starting point for discussion and understanding. This Glossary has been collectively built and created by the staff members of the LGBTQIA Resource Center since the early 2000s.

  These are not universal definitions. This glossary is provided to aid give others a more thorough but not entirely comprehensive understanding of the significance of these terms. You may even consider asking someone what they mean when they use a phrase, especially when they use it to describe their persona. Ultimately it is most important that each individual describe themselves for themselves and therefore also define a word for themselves.

   

  “If I didn't define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people's fantasies for me and eaten alive.” -Audre Lorde

  This glossary contains terms, such as ableism and disability, that may not be considered directly related to identities of sexuality or gender. These terms are significant to acknowledge as part of our mission to disagree all forms of oppress

  Fact check: LGBTQ community rejects false association with pedophiles

  The claim: The LGBT acronym has expanded to incorporate a “P,” for “pedosexual.”

  Numerous images circulating on Facebook in the past limited weeks show a poster with the acronym LGBTP, which images claim stands for “lesbian, gay, fluid, transgender, and pedosexual.” Under the acronym, the poster includes the words "Equality and acceptance."

  A user who posted that image, which went viral, did not respond to a request from USA TODAY for comment or substantiation.

  Another viral composite photo includes text that claims to be from the LGBT Foundation and show the words “Love is gender and age-blind,” and text that claims to be from FCKH8 that reads "Some people are child lovers. Get over it." Both are emblazoned on gay pride flags, and accompanied by tweets from a now-deactivated account that uses the hashtag "LGBTP."

  Jordan McMillian, a user who posted the composite to Facebook, told USA TODAY that her intent was to debunk the claim. The post was "not intended to imply that pedosexuality is real or part of the LGBTQ community," McMillian explained.

  "It was to display that there is a group of pedophiles trying to ju
