LGBT Activists Want To Change The Term To ‘LGBTQQICAPF2K’

LGBT. That much I can keep track of. Most of us know it stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender. Obviously, this is problematic. It’s not inclusive enough! What about the crystagenders and two-spirits? Why are they left out? And what about generally kinky people, huh? Where are they supposed to reside?

LGBT activists to the rescue! They want to add “K” to LGBT. ‘Cause the “kinks” need representation! So basically, the new proposed term is “LGBTQQICAPF2K.”

It stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, curious, asexual, agender, ally, pansexual, polysexual, friends and family, two-spirit and of course, kink.

I had no idea what questioning, curious or polysexual meant. For those wondering, questioning basically stands for anyone totally confused by their sexual orientation (which basically describes everyone else in the other letters). I’m assuming curious means just that– curious. And a polysexual is basically the same as a pansexual. Pansexuals aren’t limited to one gender, or something. Wikipedia’s definition of polysexual legitimately cracks me up. “Polysexuality is sexual attraction to multiple, but not all, genders.” It’s funny because, as you know, there are only two genders in existence. “Multiple, but not all, genders” is the most hilariously absurd statement ever. These people are mad.

Anyway, I’m very confused by some of these proposed additions. Are friends, family, allies and kinkiness sexual orientations now too or…?

Katherine Timpf tried to flesh this out.

One specific description can’t be used to describe anything and everything, because then it ceases to be a specific description. If you look at that LGBTQQICAPF2K+ acronym, it’s clear that it would be pretty damn hard to find someone whom it does not include — which means that it destroys the purpose of the acronym altogether.

Yep. Still confused.

There’s now a K for Kink in the LGBT+ acronym. Really? Is kinkiness now viewed as a sexual orientation? Clearly I haven’t kept up with the community I’m meant to be in…

why are they trying to add a k (for kink) to the lgbt+ acronym? y’all do realize being kinky doesn’t make you one of us right?

LGBT-Z, I’m telling you it’s much more inclusive. You can even add the infinity sign if you choose.

An epic example of how complicated it has become to socialize correctly today. Make it stop. https://t.co/CYWuYhNwrI

This is all ridiculous. Can we just stop the madness? I’m never going to be able to remember “LGBTQQICAPF2K.”
