I know that some people don't want to use the term "queer" as it's been used as a slur for so long.
Personally, I'm tired of the letters expanding each year to include a new 'subset' of people.
If I were the leader of all LGBTQIA?+ people (I refer to us as the "alphabet crew" - I believe Demi Lovato calls us the "Alphabet Mafia") I would make the following changes.
All the letters would be gone, and we'd be The Queer Community.
Gay men would no longer have the rainbow flag, the rainbow flag would represent the Queer Community.
Gay men would now be represented by a white flag with a pink triangle, point down.
