MOGAI vs. LGBTQIAP+

What is the difference between queer and gay? I thought they were the same...

Lol this is a pointless thread. Most people know it as LGBT. That isnt going to change.

Also, Pansexual is basially same thing as bisexual, Asexuality means no sexuality so it shouldnt be grouped with anything, and Intersex is basically the same thing as transgender.

I wonder what percentage of asexuals are just scared of sex or in denial about their sexuality? I saw a video where a few of them said that they have been sexually aroused and masturbated in the past. I'm just confused by the whole thing.

Sometimes. Because queer is a reclaimed slur it has to be used very carefully. I know people who would never use it to describe themselves because it's been used against them and the word feels very traumatic for them. Whereas others have reclaimed it and identify with it (sometimes for political reasons). I identify as queer as a non-binary person who doesn't really understand my own attractions. I would describe myself as sexually and romantically attracted to awesome people but I don't really understand whether gender has an impact on my attraction. To me, it's purposefully ambiguous. It's also a '**** you' to cisnormativity and heteronormativity.

Absolute nonsense. The only thing that's ambiguous is whether you genuinely believe that you're non-binary or if you try and pretend to be different to hide insecurities, for lulz, or whatever. People are straight, or gay, or bi, and I can hear arguments for very small numbers of people being transgender, but the need to classify yourself into x, or indeed decategorise the system in some kind of wannabe internet revolution, is just evidence of people with too much spare time.
