The order of the letters LGBT wasn’t the original order! It used to be GLBT, and was changed due to the impact that lesbians had on the gay community during the AIDS crisis. They supported and cared for them in their time of need and they stood in solidarity against the discrimination they experienced. Due to the increased solidarity, it resulted a rise of feminism in both sides, and thus the order change occurred.
