LGBTQ Conservatism
LGBTQ conservatism refers to LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer) individuals with conservative political views. Terminology LGBTQ conservatism is an umbrella term which may be divided into two specific sub-categories, each with its own term and meaning. The first sub-categorical term, pre-Stonewall LGBTQ Conservatism, refers to LGBTQ individuals embracing and promoting (even in the post-Stonewall era) the ideology of a traditional (and traditionally anti-LGBTQ) conservatism in either a general or specifically-LGBTQ social context or environment. Post-Stonewall LGBTQ Conservatism, refers to self-affirming LGBTQ persons with fiscally, culturally, and politically conservative views. These post-Stonewall conservatives' social views, though generally conservative too, at the same time reflect a "gay-affirmation" based on self-determination and more recent socio-historical issues like marriage equality for same-sex couples, LGBTQ family recognition, civic equ ...

People From Odda
The term "the people" refers to the public or Common people, common mass of people of a polity. As such it is a concept of human rights law, international law as well as constitutional law, particularly used for claims of popular sovereignty. In contrast, a people is any plurality of Person, persons considered as a whole. Used in politics and law, the term "a people" refers to the collective or community of an ethnic group or nation.
