I've long believed that the crucial advantage of the term "queer" over the acronyms is that it acknowledges that diversity is not something you can exhaustively enumerate. we must be always prepared to embrace diversity that we hadn't considered before. this is the most consistent inclusivity
@lewdum I understand/like your point except that "queer" also has a negative connotation to me, a cis woman. Why should anyone be considered odd or be defined by a "peculiar" label?

Are you really so conformist you can't imagine there are people who take pleasure in being recognized as nonconforming?

@lewdum

@lewdum @siderea You’re missing my point. A higher level of acceptance means that you don’t see people as different.
