I'm sorry if it's not my olace to say this, qnd I don't wish to offend anyone, but lesbians are gay, right? Maybe "gay" has once meant only "homesexual men", but now many lesbians call themselves "gay" so having both the "l" anf the "g" seems redundant. In fact, an even broader definition of "gay" may even encompass bisexuals, so gtq+ seems sufficient. But the word "queer" is also used as an ulbrella term for all lgbtq+ identities, so really, q+ seems like would suffice. Or if it has to be lgbt, they could at least switch the "b" and the "t" so that it can also mean "Let's Get This Bread".
I've started just using the term queer as an umbrella term. Some of the older people in the community don't love that term because they lived in a time when it was considered a slur, but it's pretty rare. It's just really convenient because it includes everyone under one simple term.
Also, yes, I have noticed a lot of lesbians have started referring to themselves as gay. It's all evolving, and I agree that queer is better than continually adding letters. to LGBTQIA2S+.
