LGBT aspects
There is an international gay esperantist organisation called Ligo de Samseksamaj Geesperantistoj ('LSG) – League of Homosexual Esperantists (of both sexes). It was founded in 1977 by Peter Danning.
"Gay" in Esperanto is "geja"; "homosexual" is "Samseksema", and "LGBT" is "GLAT" ("gejoj, lesbaninoj, ambaŭseksemuloj kaj transgenruloj").
