To be fair lgb and lgb+ was a lot easier. Its practically doubled over time. Is the Q even needed? I thought queer was a slur.

It's lgbt, not lgb. And queer is a reclaimed slur.

gotta realize I have experience going back to the 70's. I could be wrong but I swear it was lgb at one point.

"LGB" may very well have been used to refer to sexual and romantic minorities, but now it's mostly used by transphobes who want to exlude trans people from their own community.

I mean I was never in the community but it was pretty well represented in communities I was in.
