This guide from the Michigan State University School of Journalism is designed to be a starting point for learning about gay, lesbian, bisexual, asexual, and other sexual orientations.

The language of the guide is approachable and easy to understand.

Does everyone fit into a category? Are bisexual and pansexual the same? What does heteronormativity mean? What about homonormativity? Why do some gay people say "queer" or "faggot?" What is intersectionality? What percentage of Americans identify as gay? Are gays more feminine and lesbians more masculine? Do gay and bi people have only gay and bi friends? Are people born gay? Can sexual orientation change? How is dating different in the LGB community?
Autorenporträt
This guide is one of more than 10 guides created through the Michigan State University School of Journalism. The editor on this guide was Dr. Dawn Thorndike Pysarchik in the Department of Advertising & Public Relations. The series editor is journalism instructor Joe Grimm. Both have been working in cross-cultural communication for 25 years. The concept of this series is to teach cultural competence by spreading awareness about a specific group or community. Ultimately, the goal is to break down cultural and socially constructed walls by opening up discussion among groups. The guides have been used in diversity training in business, the health industry, universities and law enforcement. We approach cultural competence on the basis that questions asked out of sincere interest, even if phrased in a less than graceful manner, are the best way to bridge cultures. The guides are meant to start that process and to lead to face-to-face conversations. The guides are icebreakers individuals can read on their own to make awkward conversations easier. Answers in these cultural competence guides are meant to be clear, honest and non-judgmental.
