That said, i don't mind when ohter people go with the acronyms, and it often tells you a lot about the background of the person using it. Like, i see that it starts with 2S, i immediately know they're Canadian because that's the only place in the world doing that. Or when somebody still says GLBT like they did before AIDS, i know i'm reading a post from a cis gay boomer. And when i see something including LGBTT, i know they're a transmedicalist and possibly from Southwest Germany and think you're not valid if you don't get bottom surgery.
Are the two Ts for counting "transsexual" and transgender as different things that are both included?
Yea
TERF ass trans people
