As it is a day ending in Y, this is your friendly reminder that "gay" is not an umbrella term for the LGBTIQ+ communinties.
We're not all gay. We're bisexual, pansexual, queer, asexual, lesbian, and some (this may even surprise you) are straight (I'm referring to trans people FYI).
So if you find the acronym LGBTIQ+ too difficult, then you can use QUILTBAG (queer, undecided, intersex, lesbian, trans, bisexual, asexual, gay) or "queer" as umbrella terms.
