Ok do we need to change QUILTBAG to QUILTBANG to include non-binary?

Big love to everyone enduring various shades of cisheteronormativity and queerphobia in order to connect with their families today!

You are courageous simply for connecting! You are brave for existing! You don't have to come out, or face down the Baptist Church, if you can't--knowing your boundaries is also being true to yourself!

And remember the true reason for the season--the winter solstice!

The dark times are passing away, and the light is returning!

( It won't be like this forever! Sadness is temporary!)

Welcome Yule, and merry holidays to you, quiltbang community.

Money is couple and relational therapist, co-host of QueerWOC The Podcast, and a self identified Black Queer troublemaker from New York.

If the Black Marxist Feminist Revolution ™ kicked off tomorrow, what would you do after the dust settles?

I would run a series of FREE healing spaces for women, queer folks, and queer folks of color in my landlord-free Healing House!

What’s one nickname you wish you had, but never did?

Two.... cause I am NOT the one!

This blog uses QUILTBANG, not LGBT, as its blanket term. Queer, Uncertain, Intersex, Lesbian, Trans, Bi / Pan, Ace / Aro, Neuroqueer / Nonbinary, Gay.

You are part of something beautiful.

(edited to add pan and aro.)

I have been informed of an acronym that I quite like: QUILTBAG - queer, undecided, intersex, lesbian, trans, bi, ace, gay

also: QUILTBANG - queer, undecided, intersex, lesbian, trans, bi, ace, nonbinary, gay

My dad: *sees the mention of a single gay romance in a movie/tv show* This is disgusting! They’ve turned everyone gay!!
