Casting call is only looking for lgbtq+ or non binary actors, should I say my sexuality or should I just say I am lgbtq?

It says “lgbtq+ or non binary actors” but in the slate the only instructions are to say how you relate to the character- who’s description also says “either lgbtq+ or non binary” lol. I’m a lesbian, so I’m not sure if I should just say that since it seems...
