I know I thought it was odd too - this is taken from the article itself. I kinda want to ignore their odd abbreviation.
Gosh, that is awful formatting.

Yeah... I thought the same thing... personally I'd just use LGBTQ because I feel like BGLTQ will just confuse people...
However that IS apparently what they use.... http://bgltq.fas.harvard.edu/ It's just not what I've seen anyone else use

I would recommend we use LGBT as it's more widely used online. My personal favorite is LGBTQ - but it's not there yet (sadly).
Many student groups use different combinations (there's a Wesleyan College office this uses other twelve letters - some University of Michigan groups use TBLG), however for our purposes I'd suggest LGBT.
Also, there's a notability tag on the article that should probably be addressed first or it may wind up deleted as it's being promoted.

To clarify - I am speaking about in the social media sense with use of hash tags. :)
For the blog and place without hashtags, LGBTQ is probably best.

Good shout. I'd use those that don't namecheck her, then.
