Yep, I officially gave up on this.

Stopping at LGBT. Too complicated.

“LGBTIQCAPGNGFNBA”

Looks Icelandic.

What does it mean in English?

No one uses those unweildy acronyms outside of activist circles that no one but them pay attention to. I just use LGBT. Sometimes I'll throw in a Q but that's it. And the pronoun thing is stupid. I can understand taking someone aside and politely asking their pronouns if you really don't know (like if they are really androgynous) but you don't need to ask everyone.

It would be more useful if the acronym were something pronouncable. Elgubt just sounds stupid.

Just be who you are and shut up.

LGBT isn't pronouncable to you?

Heck no. I can say NASA quite easily. It sounds like Nassah. Very easy.

But elgubt (LGBT) sounds weird. Don't you think?

You say the letters, not as a word.

I know... But only because we have to because it sounds stupid to say elgubt.

But NASA sounds good when you say it like a word.

Same for you and everyone else, then.

 

[Sunstone]

I like that.

I wonder if it would be disrespectful if people just started referring to them as the LG's. Or... "Elgees".

...It would be soooo much easier. But I wouldn't want anyone to feel left out.

Why is this important to you?

Well...from Christians I appreciate more this outspoken honesty

Spoiler

rather than cold phoniness.

Just ignore the activist and use people's names. Bob's stuff. Dora's stuff. Darcy's stuff (hah with that one)

 

[SomeRandom]

I simply call it alphabet soup. But maybe that's just my natural snark.

 

[Terese]

LGBTIQCAPGNGFNBA? That's a real mouthful I'm sure it's just LGBT, sometimes they add in the Q. Anyway, much quicker for everyone.

well...I prefer simplicity.
like: Bob and Mike are brothers...but Bob likes beavers, while Mike likes snakes...
