There was no LGBTQ movement in the 1970's. There was a Lesbian movement, and a Gay one. Sometimes they overlapped, mostly they did not. Q and T were added much much later, which, IMO, only serves to make actual Lesbians and Gay men invisible. The alphabet acronym- which many radical feminists disavow - also makes it oh so easy for people to avoid saying "Lesbian" "Bisexual" etc and does the great disservice of lumping us all together. That said - mazel tov to all the Jews who are involved as Lesbians, Gays, etc.
