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 That's why I favour it. There's no way to be completely inclusive of the finer and finer distinctions that can be made about sexuality & gender. We end up falling on using a "+" as a crutch. A single word that covers the gamut is far more useful than trying to specify every possible shade up front.
