Hello all,
The document I'm translating has to do with reproductive health rights for these sub populations. With respect to the acronym, the Q is new to me, but I'd say it may go as follows:
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer.

Thank you.
Alejandro

Citations: 1991 Val Codd, Rebecca Myers-Spiers Off Our Backs (Aug. 1) “Young queers unite” vol. 29, no. 8, p. 4: Many participants voiced concern that although the Castro, the city’s premier gay neighborhood, is a safe space for all lgbtq people, it is primarily a gay male middle-class enclave, and is not always a safe space for queer homeless youth. 1998 Daphne Scholinski The Last Time I Wore a Dress (Oct. 1) p. 209: National caolition of organizations and agencies serving LGBTQ youth. 2004 Sheila Mullowney Newport Daily News (R.I.) (May 17) “‘Queer’ label still raises questions”: It can be used to describe both gender identity and sexual orientation and increasingly is being used in a new, wide-ranging alphabet soup—LGBTQQ, for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning in Youth Pride’s case, or in the case of the Rhode Island Foundation’s “Meet the Neighbors” report released last year, LGBTQ, for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, two-spirited (a Native American reference), queer and questioning.

supongo que queer se podría traducir como 'otros' y questioning como 'en duda' o algo así; me parece que todavía no está muy oficializado su uso
obviamente queer ya no va para homosexual, menos en algo tan políticamente correcto
