Facts about LGBT

Education about LGBT issues requires a sound understanding of the available facts. However, it is not easy to get hold of the ´facts´.

Furthermore, perspectives on and definitions of LGBT feelings and practices vary tremendously across different cultures. All this leads to a lot of discussion about what the facts are, and how to interpret the facts.
