This is not all identities out there. If you comment, we will add another identity soon (as in sexuality, gender, etc.).

Gay:
A man attracted to men only.
A homosexual person.
An umbrella term meaning lgbt+.

Lesbian:
A woman attracted to only women.

Bisexual:
Being (sexually) attracted to only 2 genders.

Transgender:
Your gender not lining up with what you were born as. (E.g. someone born a male with male body parts, but idetifies with a woman on the inside.)
Non-binary, gender non-conforming, etc. people can also identify as transgender.

Transsexual:
Transgender, but has now transitioned physically.

Pansexual:
Can be (sexually) attracted to anyone despite of their gender (gender-blind), or (sexually) attracted to every gender.

Polysexual:
Can be (sexually) attracted to many genders,but not all.

Demisexual:
Can only feel (sexual) attraction after forming a deep/strong connection/bond with someone.

Asexual:
Not sexually active/has no sexual desires/cannot be (sexually) attracted by someone.

Queer:
Not straight,not cis, and/or etc. Because each person is different and definitions could apply to you in a slightly different way, some identify as gender-queer or queer instead of going with a specific label like a gender, demisexual, gay, etc.

Questioning:
Being unsure if a specific part of you (gender, sexuality, and/or etc.) identifies with LGBT+ or not.

Agender:
Has no gender.

Gender-fluid:
Your gender fluxuating between two or more genders.

Non-Binary:
Identifying as a gender that is neither female or male.

There are also romantic attractions, gender expressions, and more, that I didn't dig into. Feel free to make any request or any corrections (I suck at explaining stuff, so it's appreciated).

Thank you for reading,hope this helped!
