Many people would perhaps not be interested in these sort of books, some would, perhaps, be shocked or disgusted. While the text speak terms may we well know 'in the scene' I would suggest that in a general forum the words in the title should be written in full to avoid problems.

Yes, but Lesbian/Gay/Bi-Sexual/Transsexual takes forever to type out (while LGBT is quick and doesn't spawn as many anti-comments from those who don't want to read the category, from what I've seen, as well as by those who either object to the word Gay or want it's meaning returned to "overly happy" ... not to mention those of us in towns with a Gay Street, named after a person, not a lifestyle).
