In a survey conducted in December 2020, a majority of close to 74 percent of Japanese respondents had not learned about topics regarding sexual minorities or different gender identities, such as the term LGBTQ+, during their compulsory education.
The acronym LGBTQ+, often just LGBT, is an umbrella term describing members of sexual minorities. The individual letters stand for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer or questioning, with the "+" including an additional and larger spectrum of sexual identities and gender identities.
