"Queer" is an accepted umbrella term that covers everyone in the LGBTQIA+ community, and there are lots of people in the queer community who identify specifically as queer or use words like "genderqueer" that contain the word "queer" to describe their sexuality and/or gender.

Are you also confused as to why there's a "T" and an "I" in "LGBTQIA+"? (The "Q" stands for "queer" BTW.)

'She was a little younger than me, so it's like the Romeo and Juliet story.'"

A little younger?! Good thing this Family Values Republican wasn't in Pennsyltucky.

I’ve had reservations about the “people of color” term, because it inadvertently endorses the opposite of what it intends, treating whiteness as normative. Similar, the LGBTQIA+ term can inadvertently treat being straight and cis as normative.

I found this chaste illustration in 1959 in a copy of a little humorous review which I remember as being titled 'The Humanist', but which does not seem to correspond with the actual magazine of that name. Clifford Prout, the founder of SINA, turned out to be Buck Henry.
