In a survey conducted in December 2020, a majority of almost 54 percent of heterosexual respondents in Japan stated that they had neither a favorable nor a negative attitude towards members of the LGBTQ+ community, viewing sexual minorities in a rather neutral way.
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.
