Hello everyone! I have a quick update based on a few of your comments. Watch the video version here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Zp2clsV8mrSriGg.html I made this video several years ago using the sources that I cited in the description. They’re not perfect, and neither am I, so I wanted to address a few discrepancies in the video. First of all, I’m aware that since making this video, the term “Bisexual” has become much broader, and the term still varies from person to person. Some people still use it to mean attracted to both men and women, but many others use it to mean attracted to multiple genders, not just cis men and women, but trans and non-binary people as well. Either way, the term Bisexual has grown to be broader than the word itself might suggest. To clarify, “Bisexual” is when someone is attracted to someone of their own sex or gender and other sexes or genders. “Pansexual” is when someone is attracted to others regardless of sex or gender. Second, I apologize for leaving out “Aromantic,” or people who experience little or no romantic attraction for others. That should have been the third “A”: Asexual, Agender, and Aromantic. And I know there are many other terms I didn’t include in this video that have since been added to the LGBT Alphabet. That’s the nice thing about terms like “Queer” and "LGBT+”: they include ALL terms related to gender and sexuality, even the ones I missed! Finally, in regard to “Ally,” whether or not that term is officially included in the LGBT+ alphabet, I want to make it clear that this channel is made in part by and for Allies. I would not be where I am today without the support I’ve had from numerous Cis-Het Allies, and I want this channel to be a space for them too, especially because many closeted LGBT+ people identify as Allies before officially coming out. I was an Ally for years before I came out! Either way, I believe it's an important term for people to know, and that’s why I included it in the first place. All of these terms change and evolve over time, so 10 or 20 years from now, this video might be obsolete, and that’s totally ok! I hope it can still serve as a tool for learning and starting conversations. Thank you all for watching and keeping me accountable. I love making these videos and want them to be the best they can be, so I appreciate your input. Please keep watching and letting me know when I miss something. Mistakes are how we learn! Love you all!

I keep asking what LGBTQ stands for, but i never get straight answers.

I like both girls and boys but I’m still single Guess I’m meant to be bi-myslef

I came here to see what “I” stood for and thank god it isn’t incest.

I'm not sure yet so I'll just say I'm "Ally" 😁

When you said queer alphabet the first thing that came into my head is “qualphabet” and that’s what I’m calling it from now on

It's not that difficult to be fair: *LGBT* *L* - Lets *G* - Get *T* - This *B* - Bread

*Before watching this* : Friend: What is the full LGBTQ+ name? Me: Umm... lgbtq... um.... *AFTER* friend: okay, what’s the lgbtq full name? Me: LGBTQQIAAP.... 2S!

Aromaitc's watching this :

first i thought i was A (ally) then i started to be Q (questioning) then i thought i was B (bi) now i am a fully realized L (lesbian)

Daughter 1: Dad I need to tell you something Dad: Sure honey what is it? Daughter 1: I am lesbian Dad: Oh I am surprised you cam out this way don't worry I'll be there to support you Daughter 2: Oh dad I am lesbian too! Dad: Oh well I'll be there to support you both then! Daughter 3: Dad I am lesbian too... Dad: Oh come on! Does anyone like boys? Son: I do! Hope you get the joke lmao 😂

I respect the time and effort taken into this, but the A in lgbtq+ is not for ally. It is for agender, asexual, aromantic. And those alone, I respect that others have their own opinions on the topic but that is just a bit incorrect and inaccurate if you're trying to educate people on the community. Our community is for people who are discriminated against and not accepted. Such as transgender people. People who aren't straight. Etc. Allies don't go through any of that regarding their identity, therefore they are not part of the acronym, lgbtqia+, unless they directly identify as a legitimate part of it. (Not Ally) I am not here to start anything but, please do more looking into that specific section as a lot of us don't agree with "Ally" being part of the acronym.

I’m gay and he’s right it’s too many damn letters

I'm questioning My friend is gay The rest of my family is straight Help..

Don't mind me just passing bi

Ok to clear this up: Bisexual people are attracted to 2 or more genders, not just specificity male and female. - A fellow bisexual

When you accidentally come out to your mom by playing Girl In Red and then realizing your headphones weren’t connected

*Pansexual jokes:* I didn't come out of the closet, I came out of the pantry. I am a pansexual and a good cook. I like to watch PANime. I like PANdas. These jokes are so bad, you should hit me across the head with a PAN. _I'll stop here_

I feel educated... Time to watch a 10 hour version of nyan cat

I told my friend I’m gay and she said after that “when your talking to a bad boy I will push you to them” I said I’m mostly into people who are not bad boys She said after that “still gonna push you though” I was scared

This comment section really makes me sad like why can’t you just not be homophobic

I am either questioning or pansexual and to my mother that reads these Hi mom!

I used to be the second "Q" for questioning but im the "B" now 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

I woke up at like 1 in the morning wondering, "What does the Q and '+' mean?"

I'm an ally ☺️. I will always support LBGTQ...2s

Lesbian Gay Bisexual (me) Transgender Queer Questioning Intersex Asexual Ally Pansexual 2 Spirit +

I just usually say lgbtq+

My BFF is pansexual and when she told me, I was shocked. But I decided that I will support her with it and I will always be here friend no matter what! :D

Pansexual joke: Hi I’m pansexual And yes I did just come out of the PANtry Im cringing at myself

I literally got a LBGTQ+ commercial before this 😂

Hello LGBTQPP2S! I am a Ally, I shall support you 💞

I knew what it stood for I just wanted to know how to spell queer bc I’m rlly dumb ;-;

I'm straight and I support LGBTQ, not only me a lot of straight people. So don't feel broken if you're one of them

*When even KZfaq thinks I'm gay*

Nah I'm pretty sure it stands for Lettuce Guacamole Bacon Tomatoes

Why isn't there a FA F=forever A=alone

hey can anybody give me a site that shows the numbers/ percentage of how many people in the US belong to that community? writing a paper on it :) but the info online is very ambiguous and as I don’t know that much about it (kind of just chose the topic) I don’t know which site can be legit...

I was cleaning my phone for about 5 minutes then realized it was the whiteboard💀😂

omg same profile pic were like twins wtf but seriously tho

He doesn’t have a yellow maker 😭

I always thought the second A was for Aromantic and that there were more letters to it

So even if you aren‘t in the LGBTQ+ Community you are in the LGBTQ+ Community? (Because I just thought if Ally 😂)

This is so hard to remember. Imagine people adding more letters

Actually thanks for explaining this I'm bi but still did not know the other tricky ones I knew Pan and Asexual and the basic four of course but got confused from there

Find out who you are and be that person. That’s what your soul was put on this Earth to be. Find that truth, live that truth, and everything else will come.

WHERE ARE MAH FRYING PANS AT!? (Sorry if this offends you my friend came up with it for me)

I was homophobic and straight since i learnt what it was until highschool then i became a ally then i started to question myself. And i think im bisexual now and im proud of it 😍my boyfriend dont mind. Well he wouldnt bc rn we broke up bc he lied to me about some big stuff ;~;

One question, what's the difference between pansexuals and omnisexuals? (Yes I did look it up but I still can't figure out the difference)

The first a in lgbtqqiaaps+ can also mean aromantic, not just asexual

Okay so I just realized I'm not BI but Pan

Omg I'm actually going to cry. I thought I was bi but then I heard of "asexual" and didn't know what it meant and now I know I am Asexual I'm so happy!!

I never knew who i was before watching this video. Thanks for sharing this! I now atleast have a peace of mind understanding my own identity

Awesome Explanation Bro . Thanks alot for sharing the knowledge😊😊😊❤✌

daughter 1: dad, I’m a lesbian dad: okayyy daughter 2: I’m a lesbian dad: ..... daughter 3: I’m a lesbian dad: does anyone in this house like boys? son: I do

I think it might be easier if it was called SAGA sexuality and gender acceptance

The only one I didn't know about was 2S, so it was nice to learn about it.

thank you! :D this helped me I always questioned what it meant!

I was actually in the second q for a while '-' Also I'm a ally💖

Who watching it in 2019 but I'm wanted say is I'm bisexual but I'm still questioning if I belong to this group or not or I belong to a other group

I have a question What's the name of the song in this video?

Thank u so much but im confused whether im pansexual or bisexual

I know almost all This is what happens when your not out, you just research random things

I'm very surprised, I actually thought there would be more love and support in the comments, if you dont agree with it, then thats your business. seriously though, religious people, I too am religious, but I am a part of the lgbtq community. I'm not saying you have you be a part of the lgbtq community, what I am saying is you should come to terms with what you believe, and what you are saying. all this negitivity, is it really needed? are you throughly benefiting yourself and the environment around you by spreading hate towards a noble and just cause? really think about this, why should lgbtq be wrong? are you hurting someone? are you stealing? are you killing? no. those are all rightfully persecuted things, so what is there wrong with being gay? what is there wrong with being trans, or nonbinary? and before you respond with 'read this page in the bible' you should know I read my bible, I don't need your highlight. society is one fucked up cookie, if you ask me.

Next year, we will launch LGBTQIAmaxpro++. Pre order now

I need y'alls help. So I feel Sexually attracted to both men and women but I dont feel romantic attraction to anyone. Like here is an example, I might see someone and be like "o their hot" or "o their cute" but that's all. I can tell there beautiful but i dont feel anything else. Is this normal? Plz help

I’m bisexual

i refer to "the gay peeps" as "members of the LGBTQ-MUNITY" cuz WE ALL FAMILY HERE LETS BE REAL edit: and also is simpler to say and encompasses all of the gay and gender

So… I am a bit on the younger side, so I don’t want to start questioning it just yet, but I have recently found something that fits me somewhat well, that being aromantic, or someone who feels little to no romantic feeling to any and all genders, similar to asexual. Again, I don’t want to start questioning it just yet, but if there is anyone who is knowledgeable on that specific topic, that would be greatly appreciated. I’m not completely sure where to look when researching stuff like this…

Happy to know 💖 Hello world I'm an A 😋 Got many friends and relatives who fill in this alphabet and I am happy to see & finally have a complete understanding of it 💖 Take care & Spread Love!!!

I’m an ally

I am and always will be an ally. Everyone in the lgbtq+ community are so lovely ☺️🏳️‍🌈 Also happy pride month!

Idk if this is completely and I dont wanna assume but I'm questioning I'm either that or ally

I’m confused as I like all genders but gender plays a part in my attraction so I’m not I’m not gender blind can I still identify as pan or do I have to choose omni?

I Would belong in the ally section because I support and find that people should love whoever they want But I'm not gay I think...

I'm a proud pansexual. I believe that loving someone is not because of society choose for, what they thought was the 'right' and 'should', or because of looks, age, race and even gender. Love is love. you can't control yourself loving someone because it was 'must'. It's your life not them, it's not their life to choose who's to love, to be who you are, to your happiness and future. As long as you're not hurting anyone and even yourself, and you're happy. If you have mistake, it's yours not theirs. Remember, we only live once, don't waste it.

I have a question 🙋‍♀️ my friends are saying you can CHOOSE if you are in lgbtq or not... is that true? Because I feel like I am aromantic, but I haven’t chosen it. I’m really confused 😵 “my friends just confused me with lgbtq when I knew most about it!” Haha 😂 also I’m probably questioning-

What about aromantic????

This is so good. Proud bisexual 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 edit: nvm i’m a lesbian

Holy shoot- I just figured our where I fit. I'm two spirit 0.0. Holy crap I've been debating what I am for 2 years, thanks for the help cause I didn't know that existed 😂 Edit: I made this not knowing what two spirit was at the time, I was in no way intending to culturally appropriate. I apologize for my actions against the culture this term comes from.

I'm questioning ? I don't know if I'm lesbian, straight, Pansexual, or Queer

I’m bisexual but I use the word gay as an umbrella term because I don’t feel comfortable saying queer can I say gay as a term referring to the LGBTQ community

I’m bisexual and transgender (ftm) I except all can people please open up their minds and try to listen to our point of view?

Even tho im a kid i find this very useful and educational i thought i was gay because i like boys and girls but i found the term 'pansexual and bisexual' so its good to know that im not gay because my friends always bully me and call me gay for liking boys and girls. Edit : Thank you so much for the appreciation.

What about philophobia?

I’m a proud Ally

The only one I didn’t know was 2S. Very interesting video! I’m a panromantic asexual and I definitely enjoyed this. I’ll definitely share this with others

My fam is homophobic, I went into my bedroom almost in tears

So I think im bisexual,,, but I also think i maybe attracted to trans women/ trans guy, does this make me pan?

Someone could tell me what the "+" means ? 🌸 Sorry for my English-

Why is there no mentioning about aromantics? It falls under the A, too.

Ally💕 I love the people that are in the lgbt 🏳️‍🌈 community! I support! Even if im straight. And that’s what an Ally is!

This may be a stupid question but is hetrosexuality part of lgbtq+ or is it part from another category?

can you pls explain this clear what a Gray Ace is please?

I just like boys being gay because of anime ..... I hope that’s not weird right ?

*Words unrecognised - LGBT now stands for* *L - Lamborghinis* *G - Got* *B - Burnt* *T - Toast*

What is the 2s

Thanks for making me understand the term in the easiest possible way .I really liked it

Did you know that in the trials of Apollo by Rick Riordan, Apollo is bisexual? I don’t know why I said that, I just can’t wait for the burning maze to come out on May first! OK bye I love Percy Jackson!

This was great, thank you for letting everyone know what they all are 😀

Thank you so much for getting asexual definition correct. I am asexual and attracted to women but everyone always defines asexual as someone who has no romantic or sexual attraction but it means no sexual attraction
