[QUOTE="ncurd, post: 1097545, member: 72205"] Its an odd one the first time I became aware of the T was 2001 when my college added it to the LGB Society. I didn't understand it all back then but its not something new by any stretch. My understanding is vast majority of LGB peeps are quite happy with the inclusion of T of course there are outliers in any group. In recent years we've seen all kinds of letter added I think the longest acornym I've seen is LGBTQIA+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transsexual, Queer, Intersex, Asexual, +anything else) no I didn't know what the I stood for until 5 seconds ago. I stopped at LGBTQ+ mainly because what is the point of Q+ if we keep adding the letters anyway. So yeah its more an acronym for non cis-het people and I think their community is quite comfortable with the spectrum of inclusion and its not my place to tell them they should segregate them into specific self interest groups. They wish to speak as one and therefore that's okay. [/QUOTE]
