A major dictionary adds us into the lexicon and no one cares, yet I see a lot of whining about erasure and not being included. Apathy much? It’s easier to complain than celebrate I guess.

Powder Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Really nice to see romantic orientations being added; this can be a game changer for varioriented people without much access to LGBTQIAPN+ spaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
