John Wiswell"Queer" is a great alternative to LGBT+. It's quicker to say. It doesn't relegate any identity to the other side of the plus sign. It invites all queer folks to be equal. It's cool being queer.
KarmaWaters@Wiswell Im a cis/hetero boomer ((yeah we're not all just putting cat pictures on fb) and I still struggle with using the word queer.
When I was growing up it was always used as a slur and an excuse for violence "queer bashing" was a common after the pub sport for groups of young right wing men
Im so glad its being reclaimed and has become such a positive thing.
