LGB characters: Just treat them like any other character. Gay people are normal enough in modern western society that you will probably do a reasonable job if you want to. T characters: Best avoided unless you know whereof you speak. Most representations are cringeworthy, as trans people appear to be the latest, hottest trend in our culture. You’re likely to do a bad job unless you do a ton of research. These two groups are so disparate that you cannot possibly address them in the same breath. It would be like properly representing both sex workers and Canadians.
