I can only speak for myself, but this is a topic I've talked about here.
It seems we always add more letters, and separate ourselves more.
If I had my way, the whole LGBTQIAAPDSLSKFJWEORJOIJS go away. We would simply be known as the Queer community. The rainbow flag would no longer be the gay flag, it would encompass us all, and gay men would get a new flag that would incorporate the pink triangle, as a way to acknowledge those lost in the death camps.
However, I know that "queer" is problematic for a lot of people, so I know it would never happen. I wouldn't want anyone to feel they have to identify with a word they are uncomfortable with.
