Hypothesis

1. LGBTQ+ individuals who experience higher levels of social support from

their families, friends, and community members will report higher levels of

acceptance and well-being.

2. LGBTQ+ individuals who are more involved in their communities (e.g.,

through volunteering, activism) will report higher levels of acceptance and a

greater sense of belonging.

3.LGBTQ+ individuals who experience higher levels of stigma and

discrimination in their communities will report lower levels of acceptance and

well-being.

4. LGBTQ+ individuals who experience multiple forms of marginalization

(e.g., racism, sexism, homophobia) will report lower levels of acceptance and

well-being.

5. LGBTQ+ individuals who participate in community-based organizations and

support groups will report higher levels of acceptance and a greater sense of

belonging.
In contrast to lesbians, gay men, and bisexual men and women, transgender people are

defined according to their gender identity and presentation. This group encompasses

individuals whose gender identity differs from the sex originally assigned to them at

birth or whose gender expression varies significantly from what is traditionally

associated with or typical for that sex (i.e., people identified as male at birth who

subsequently identify as female, and people identified as female at birth who later

identify as male), as well as other individuals who vary from or reject traditional

cultural conceptualizations of gender in terms of the male–female dichotomy. The

transgender population is diverse in gender identity, expression, and sexual orientation.

Some transgender individuals have undergone medical interventions to alter their sexual

anatomy and physiology, others wish to have such procedures in the future, and still

others do not. Transgender people can be heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual in their

sexual orientation. Some lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals are transgender; most are not.

Male-to-female transgender people are known as MtF, transgender females, or

transwomen, while female-to-male transgender people are known as FtM, transgender

males, or transmen. Some transgender people do not fit into either of these binary

categories. As one might expect, there are health differences between transgender and

nontransgender people, as well as between transgender females and transgender males.

INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND
THE LGBT COMMUNITY
The phrase “lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender community”

(or “LGBT community”) refers to a broad coalition of groups that are diverse

with respect to gender, sexual orientation, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic

status. Thus while this report focuses on the community that is encapsulated

by the acronym LGBT, the committee wishes to highlight the importance of

recognizing that the various populations represented by “L,” “G,” “B,” and

“T” are distinct groups, each with its own special health-related concerns and

needs. The committee believes it is essential to emphasize these differences at

the outset of this report because in some contemporary scientific discourse,

and in the popular media, these groups are routinely treated as a single

population under umbrella terms such as LGBT. At the same time, as

discussed further below, these groups have many experiences in common, key

among them being the experience of stigmatization.

The LGBTQ+ community has been long faced discrimination, marginalization,

and exclusion from the society. Despite significant progress in recent years,

LGBTQ+ individuals continue to encounter barriers to acceptance, inclusivity,

and equality.
