The List Keeps Growing

[Khandro]

It's now 'LGBTIQ+' (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, queer or questioning) groups, according to an article I've just read on the BBC web site.

What's the '+' mean, & what might be added next?

[1ozzy]

Do you need =?

[Mozz71]

The + just means anything not included in the other letters: asexual, pansexual, gender fluid etc.

[1ozzy]

I identify as pansexual.
I am very wok.

[barry1010]

Isn't 'queer' the same as 'lesbian/gay'?

[douglas9401]

'Queer' is odd or unusual.

End of. :-P

[Khandro]

//'Queer' is odd or unusual//

Correct, but I thought we were allowed to say so

[Khandro]

not allowed

[1ozzy]

So?
Feel free to say it.

There used to be a very nice man here - gay - who took great exception to gay people being lumped in with all these various varieties - and unusually, for this place at least, he wouldn't automatically support them either. We could do with more of his honest common sense.

The '+' denotes 'BR' for those who wish to identify as Blackburn Rovers fans.

[douglas9401]

Name please, so I can look this wonder up.

[naomi24]

No.

[vulcan42]

There was an old queer from Khartoum,
who took a lesbian up to his room.
They argued all night,
as to who had the right,
To do what, with what and to whom.

Pity there won't be a Blackburn/Burnley derby next season!

[douglas9401]

Oooh! You big tease.

[Ken4155]

Davebro, there may yet well be. BR may not finish in the play-off positions (3 good teams directly below them and with games in hand) and we look almost nailed on to go down.

[Zacs-Master]

The '+' has been around for years, Khandro. You're behind the curve, pal. In fact there's a 2+

You do visit some strange sites Zacs, & you criticize Breitbart !
