What is LGBT?
Talk about whether homosexuality is a crime or not later, but the first question that will be in many people’s minds is what is LGBT? We have heard many names of homosexual, bisexual, and transgender.
So what is the difference between all these? Actually, LGBT is a joint name that is made up of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender. The existence of homosexuality has been found in all cultures and countries, although the governments of some countries refute this.
Actually, as a human we consider opposite attraction to be normal, like man’s attraction to woman and woman’s attraction to a man is a normal process. But in addition to this, attraction can occur in many forms, which we divide into many different categories by calling it unusual.
In this, the attraction of a woman to the woman is in the lesbian category, while the attraction of the man towards the male comes in the gay category. At the same time, people who are attracted to both men and women are called bisexual.
In this post, we have collected LGBT quotes, Gay Quotes, pride month quotes, quotes about LGBT discrimination, and also some powerful quotes from changemakers who are have contributed to the movement for LGBT equality.

I like the sayings except for the homophobic ones. I hope there will be a point in time when there will be no closeted LGBT People, at that point in time, there will be far less homophobia than there is now, just as there is far less homophobia than in previous time periods. My parents were homophobic when they were alive and would not be happy if I told them I am gay. They would say I became gay because I was not into sports during my childhood and was a “momma’s boy”.
