LGBTQ* What’s Your Sign?
ASL - American Sign Language - Signs for LGBTQ* Words
Lesbian - make a ”L” (same as the letter “L” in sign) rest it on your chin.

Gay- using your thumb and pointer finger (creating the symbol for the letter “g” in ASL), touch the base of your chin.  —The letter “g” below.
(note: tugging one’s earlobe can also be used as slang for gay)

Bisexual - Make a “G” hand shape (like above) that starts at your chin, and brushes upwards towards the top of your head.
Transgender - the ASL for transgender seems to shift from area to area, having its own slang/signs within the community. Many people finger spell FTM or MTF.
I Love You - hand shape for the combined letters, ”I” “L” and ”Y”
