And don’t get me started on the “isn’t bisexuality and pansexuality the same thing?” Argument people sometimes start. Technically no, there are more than just two genders and pansexuality means you literally do not care about that.

Everything is like “QUEER history” and “List of QUEER young adult books” or “Top 10 QUEER movies” and queer this and queer that and for the love of god please just say LGBT.
