Those are clear cut examples, I think, but there are others that aren't.

For example, I don't think Furries should be included in there but I have heard some people do consider them as part of the +.

like most of these things, depends on context I think. being a furry is technically something different and not inherently sexual, however furries are treated as such and also overlap a lot with other queer communities. so there's lots of solidarity to find there. same goes for lots of neurodivergent folks too.

My take is that Furries align conceptually better with the leather community for roughly that reason. It's not exclusively a sexuality, but deals with stigma in ways that are similar and has some other overlaps.

That's pretty close, tho leather is much more sexual imo and furries also dip a little into identity
