As the title states really. I need to refer to this diverse group of people, who somehow have gotten put in the same box labeled “sexual minorites”.
I’m a boring CISHET vanilla white male, so I don’t really know. I want to include as many as I can when I refer to “lgbtq+ people”. I’ve been studying various flags, trying to find the one flag I need. But I can’t really figure it out.
Is lgbtq+ the preferred term, or what should I use? Is a flag better? I don’t want to hurt someone by not including them.
Last time I did was today, but that was in a teasing funny setting, and to a person I hold a great deal of respect for.
I wouldn’t in a discussion, I hate name calling, it’s counter productive. But in my mind…
But it exists in your head, right? Like you have mentally categorised an age of people as boomers, and you’re associating a behaviour with that category?
The reason I say is that age is also a protected category…
Hmm I guess you’re right… I hadn’t thought of it that way before.
I think I describe the behavior more than the age group, but I still see what you’re saying. Thanks for call me out on it.
