- I attempted to make a change on the introduction to use language consistent with the actual organization. Specifically, I attempted to delete the word "homosexual" and replace it with the phrase, "lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender." Using the term homosexual to describe a lesbian or gay individual is offensive and is like using the "n-word" to describe African-Americans. The negative connotation of the word homosexual came initially from both religions who are against "homosexuality" and also from early psychoanalysis, a field dominated by white, straight, privileged men. Similarly, terms like "sexual preference" and "alternative lifestyle" are no longer considered appropriate. Preference implies that sexuality is a choice arising from a belief system-which it's not given it is the essence of the person. And for gays and lesbians, heterosexuality is the "alternative" lifestyle. The correct term is sexual and romantic orientation.
