- 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.
