Edit: Nvm, should just google first :D
Q = Queer + = All the other orientations that would reword it to QUILTBAG.
I'm an originalist... GLBT or nothing.

What I have trouble with is the word 'gender.' I am not a 'gender' and don't know how I couldn't possibly be one. The proper term is 'sex.' 'Gender' applies to a word.
I don't know how, why, or when this changed. All I know is, whenever I see a form nowadays to fill out my 'gender,' I just leave it blank.
In the US, it started in late 2000 in Academia, & has infested our Political discourse.

What is the difference between Gay and Queer. Ive always wondered. And for you old schoolers do you mind so many different groups being lumped in together Can only speak of my experiences here in the USA as an Old Schooler.
Queer for the longest in the States was used as a slur against gays. Much like the Fa-word, or N-word. However, in recent years the Gay Community has started to take it back, and turn it into a positive expression. Without going Political, the Identity Politics craze/hysteria/division, along with Social Justice Warriors, has tarnished a lot of the other groups as "wannabes" in the sight of some. Again, this is from my experiences in Florida, in the Gay Community here.
Me personally, I think adding on letters is a unnecessary complication. GLB (gay, lesbian, bi), or GSB (gay, straight, bi) are perfectly fine without the rest of the Letters, and the Identity Politics behind them, interfering.
