if queer can’t be a synonym for the whole community, that’s fine. but then stop dropping the Q off the acronym. if it’s not a synonym, include queer people when you talk about the community!
you cant say “identify as queer all you want but don’t force others to” and then proceed to ignore that queer people exist.
i am not lgbt. i am queer.
also i’m tired and cranky, if that wasn’t obvious.
