I don't get the gay acronym thing.

Here's a quote from a website:

What Does LGBTQIA mean?
Lesbian – A female- identified person who is attracted romantically, physically, or emotionally to another female-identified person.

Gay – A person, mainly a male-identified person, who is attracted romantically, physically, or emotionally to another a person of the same sex.

Bisexual – A person who is attracted romantically, physically, or emotionally to both men and women.

Transgender – A person who is a member of a gender other than that expected based on anatomical sex.

Queer – An umbrella term which embraces a variety of sexual preferences, orientations, and habits of those who do not adhere to the heterosexual and cisgender majority. The term queer includes, but is not exclusive to lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, transpeople, and intersex persons, traditionally, this term is derogatory and hurtful, however, many people who do not adhere to sexual and/or gender norms use it to self-identify in a positive way.

Intersex – Someone who’s physical sex characteristics are not categorized as exclusively male or exclusively female.

Asexual – A person who does not have a sexual orientation. A person that does not experience a sexual attraction but can experience a romantic, emotional, or aesthetic attraction to another person.

Ally – A person who does not identify as LGBTQIA, but supports the rights and safety of those who do.

Seems like a lot of superfluous letters, not the least Q, which seems to mean all the others. Who decides/agrees on this stuff?

I think the issue is what do individuals self identify as? - grouping these disparate people together within the acronym isn't done because they share an identity, it is more that these people often have shared needs / goals and because the individual groups are quite small in number, banding together into one larger group with well defined goals they can achieve more.

Religions self identify with all sorts of sects branching off a main religion or create whole new ones on a whim, atheists also self identify with different groups (humanist, agnostic, secular, etc), sports followers self identify according to the sport they love etc. What is wrong with self identifying the gender you are and the gender you are attracted to? It clarifies the issue with those they wish to share that information and it allows statisticians to identify these people in a way that can be meaningful to others.

Thanks for a really informative post. I don't have any problems with anyone identifying themselves as anything, it's just the terminology seems a bit complex. Why was Queer included if it just means all the other ones? They need to rearrange the letters to make a pronounceable word. LIGBAQT? BIGQLIT? Q is just awkward.

By the way, what is 'cisgender'?

 

[Dr Spaceman]

By the way, what is 'cisgender'?

I believe cisgender refers to someone who was born a male and identifies as a male, or born a female and identifies as a female.

Not sure why this needs a title but there you go; welcome to 2016.

Be thankful you're not in a situation where you need that distinction, then! Pretty tough life for those who do.

Cis and trans are terms used in chemistry where isomers of a chemical can have attached groups either on the same side (CIS) or diagonally opposite (Trans). There may be other usages, but I am unaware of them. That the terms cis and trans have been repurposed for sexuality / gender is in my opinion a quite a clever and entirely appropriate usage. A cis gender person is one whose gender matches the physical body (what many call normal). A trans gender person is one whose gender does not match the physical body (usually the opposite)

Queer is a term that has been reclaimed after being a derogatory term. It is often used to indicate not having a normal sexuality, but it is obscure enough to mean a number of different things to different people.
