“…Trans* is the umbrella term used by those who do not identify with the gender identity that they were assigned at birth (known as cis people; 'trans-' stems from the Latin word for 'across', while its antonym 'cis-' refers to 'this side of'). Words like transgender, transsexual, and transvestite are also used, but each has a different (and often controversial) meaning (Devor & Dominic, 2015). The asterisk (*) is borrowed from computer sciences where it represents a wildcard placeholder, meaning that trans* encompasses everyone who does not identify as 'cis'.…”

This chapter provides a critical review of research concerning Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans*, Queer, and other non-heterosexual people (LGBTQ+) 1 in the field of marketing and 1 While many phenomena are complex, dynamic, and contingent, sexual identities are a particularly contested discursive terrain (see Ghaziani, 2017;Weeks, 2007Weeks, , 2017. We understand sexuality as a fluid entanglement of desires, practices, and identity propositions that are continually negotiated by individuals and collectives. These characteristics pose a challenge to researchers seeking a parsimonious but accurate label that encompasses all nonheterosexual sexualities. The acronym LGBTQ+ refers to the five main identity categories within this collective -Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans*, and Queer. Trans* is the umbrella term used by those who do not identify with the gender identity that they were assigned at birth (known as cis people; 'trans-' stems from the Latin word for 'across', while its antonym 'cis-' refers to 'this side of'). Words like transgender, transsexual, and transvestite are also used, but each has a different (and often controversial) meaning (Devor & Dominic, 2015). The asterisk (*) is borrowed from computer sciences where it represents a wildcard placeholder, meaning that trans* encompasses everyone who does not identify as 'cis'. The '+' is used to appreciate that even these five broad labels do not encompass the full variety of sexual and gender subjectivities, and can refer to asexual or questioning people, heterosexual allies, and intersexuals, amongst others. As discussed in the "Future Frontiers" section below,

“…On the other hand, limitations of this research include that this study was based on a nonprobability sample using methods that tend to overrepresent White, younger, more well-educated TNB people (Devor & Dominic, 2015). This study also used a correlational design, meaning we cannot rule out alternative causal hypotheses such as those suggested above.…”

“…Furthermore, people's sexual behaviors, desires, and fantasies change over time (Devor & Dominic, 2015). In such cases, limiting one's self to one partner would then require that aspects of one's sexuality may never be explored or expressed, unless, both changed together or the relationship ended.…”

“…In such cases, limiting one's self to one partner would then require that aspects of one's sexuality may never be explored or expressed, unless, both changed together or the relationship ended. For trans* people, particularly those who undergo transition, this may be especially so, both because of the effects of hormone treatments and because of the psychological effects of living and being perceived as their authentic gender (Devor & Dominic, 2015). It is not uncommon for trans* people to find that their sexual attractions change as their gender identities change.…”

Gender, Sexual Identity, and Families: The Personal Is Political Gender is a fundamental organizing principle of families and is a complex mix of biology, identity and behavioral expression. Similarly, sexual identity includes a wide range of identification of sexual attraction and expression, and is also fundamental to understanding families. In 2016 Groves Conference program built on the Groves Conference's past and recognized that social change has been swift in some areas, such as marriage equality with the 2015 Supreme Court ruling. However, full equality for all individuals and families throughout the U.S. is still not present and counter movements to social change are many, such as turning back the clock on fertility decisions, voting rights, even the definition of citizenship. For professionals who do research, who participate in policy, and who conduct prevention and intervention, the work presented in this volume is refreshed by new perspectives, new information, and new commitments.
