What does lgbtq mean anyway?

What does LGBTQ mean? Please see the Human Right's Campaign (HRC) Glossary of Terms which I have found to be the most accurate for orientations and gender identity. 

The website I have developed is for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer individuals, those that support us and those that accept us to find LGBTQ FRIENDLY Businesses and Resources in our area, but it is also an opportunity to ENLIGHTEN those that have no opinion to be ACCEPTING and those that do have a negative opinion, maybe to CHANGE IT. 

All I know is that being the "Change you want to see in the world" is real and "leading by example" is important. Take care Everyone. ~Beau
