I am not ashamed to say I had to look up “LGBTQ” to know what the last two letters stood for:
The term LGBT is intended to emphasize a diversity of "sexuality and gender identity-based cultures" and is sometimes used to refer to anyone who is non-heterosexual instead of exclusively to people who are homosexual, bisexual, or transgender. To recognize this inclusion, a popular variant adds the letter Q for those who identify as queer and questioning their sexual identity (e.g., "LGBTQ" or "GLBTQ", recorded since 1996). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT
Interesting times. Interesting times...
