- A
great way to get involved as lesbian, gay,
bisexual, transgender people, or as heterosexual
allies, is to learn more about our lives.
Many communities have books in their public
libraries, and cities like Madison and Milwaukee
have excellent LGBT bookstores. Even local
bookstores and national bookstore chains
have great titles from which we can learn.
Here
is more of a professional bibliography of
articles, mostly available in university
libraries, that provides a somewhat more
academic view of the psychology of LGBT
people.
