is there any other parts? does it also come with an economic, political and religious component or something? what am i missing here?

Gender. Straight is usually just to reference sexuality. There is the word "cis" for that but I don't tend to see it used that often outside of specific spaces. Saying non-lgbt was just quicker. Admittedly I was just talking about sexuality there, but you can apply a similar idea to gender.

No? Sexuality is the gender you are attracted to. Gender is more of a sense of self thing.

isn't sexuality a sense of self thing?

Rose wrote

I guess, but gender is a lot more about the self, rather than others.

read that post again please.

i am not asking for something that is exclusive to lgbt people. i asked if people experiencing sexuality differently is exclusive to lgbt.

Hmm. Misread the view on that then. But you did ask earlier:

shit that's specific to lgbt people.

which is what?
