    What the fuck is 2SLGGTQIA? you know LGBT or even LGBTQ covers all your bases right? And I’m a lesbian. We don’t need 35 damned letters everybody knows what group of people you are talking about if you just say LGBT

      It will never not be interesting to me how lesbians, including my parents, continue to be the least accepting among 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals in my experience. The number of lesbians I know who are TERFs is insane.

      But for the record:

      • two spirit
      • lesbian
      • gay
      • bisexual
      • transgender
      • queer
      • intersex
      • asexual
      • and anybody else who we missed

        That’s where QUEER AND TRANS covers everything else on your “list” y’all over complicate every fucking thing.

            Some see usage by non-native groups of “two spirit” terminology as being cultural appropriation.

              Calling yourself 2S when you aren’t native might be appropriation depending on the context but I wouldn’t consider using it for inclusivity purposes to be appropriation and I don’t think anybody else in my tribe would either.
