    I assume everything of the form LGBT[any other characters] is the same, LGB being a special exception because I know they did that for a reason. I do like queer as a community label though, it feels like a fuzzier term which reflects the fuzzy nature of community.

      the fuzzy nature of the community

      Exactly

      Sex, gender, sexuality, etc are all on a spectrum and trying to fit anyone into any specific category without overlap just ain’t gonna happen so using Queer is more inclusive IMO

      Not much skin in the game as a straight male but I like queer. It sounds fun and fuzzie. I am Native, Tsimshian, and the 2A thing is new to me. From the outside, all the different tribes culture get lumped into an amalgimation. I’m progressive, and like to consider myself an ally, but it’s a little hard to keep up with the alphabet and now math symbols.
