@tophermcdaniel0: I Apologize For Being Dumb But Why Isn’t There An S In LGBTQ ? Is Straight Not A Sexual Orientation ? Maybe I’m Wrong Because I Genuinely Do Not Understand 🤷♂️#viral
the "A" in LGBTQIA stands for Ally which are straight people that support and stand beside other members of the queer community

this is the "all lives matter" argument. straight people aren't harassed, attacked, or legislated against for being straight. 🙄

it is a sexual orientation but the whole point of the acronym is for people who aren't the norm which is straight

Straight is normal. Therefore it goes without saying or needing a letter.

Because inclusion is not the goal despite what is preached.

I think it’s like saying POC includes white people bc white is a skin color too. While that’s technically correct, the semantics here matter less and the social implications are what matter. POC is meant to mean people who are out of the majority. LGBTQ+ are folks who aren’t the majority. Bc if you include straight, then it’s just the conversation of sexuality and not a minority group of people.

Because the acronym is for queer identities ?

Yes, heterosexual is a sexual orientation. But it’s a similar concept to “black lives matter.” Obviously, all lives matter. But we say “black lives matter” because black people are highly discriminated against across the world. It’s a slogan to bring forward injustice so we can crush it. The name for the LGBTQ+ community is much the same. Heterosexuals are the non oppressed majority

the point of the lgbtq+ community is to celebrate those who ARENT straight because of the unfair treatment queer people face compared to straight people.

Darkwing :
simple it's because of the straight people that think certain groups of people shouldn't have a right to exist which is why lgbtq is even a thing in first place

I think you are asking in good faith, so I’m sorry for all of the snark and hostile comments. But it is because “LGBTQ+” is not meant to cover all sexualities. It’s meant to help to describe/connect those do not necessarily belong to what is “standard” in society.

Someone in the LGBT once told me “ being in the LGBTQ community isn’t about your sexuality, it’s about being a marginalized victim of society.” and I think that says a lot.

Well, the reason there’s not an S in it is because the rest of those letters don’t really mean anything either

Same reason there isn’t “white pride” same reason there isn’t a “white history month” you don’t need to include the people that are seen as the “default” they aren’t the default, but that is the societal perception
