Comment on How do you refer to the lgbtq+ "community" least excludingly?
BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 4 months agoI hear you loud and clear. I’m probably adding the “+” as well, but I also realize that some people just want to be offended. If I can get people to be offended that I don’t oppress lgbtq+ people, then that’s fine. But I don want to accidentally hurt people by being ignorant.

I'm going to open this in a way that is probably offensive and not lending credit to much, but I'm a CIS straight white male.
I'm also Aromantic.
I'm a tiny part of the A at the end of LGBTQIA+, and I have no strong opinions on being left out! I love that we are included at all!
I hit the big supportive events in my community, and occasionally visit a couple of the gay bars while sporting my Aro flag ring and dying my beard in various colors.
I can't remember where I was going with this comment.

That’s ok, I was distracted by my slight misreading of your second sentence and found myself wondering why you would mention that you smell nice 🙃
