The acronym system is anti queer philosophically relies on strict taxonomies and fundamentally hierarchal exclusionary while not telling us why these people are lumped together their issues have so much in common its really liberally stupid and as as queer I take offense
I used to be uncomfortable with using queer as a self-descriptor, but TBH I'm getting to be in agreement with you these days.
Now I'm wondering about getting a T-shirt with it on, for pride (or any other day I don't mind stirring the pot)
Gsm/grsm works too but is also for phones
Nobodies going to understand acronyms where I live anway, lol (words regarding all the labels feel pretty awkward to me in Spanish)
