Lexicon
Definitions and uses of some terms I use.
I think we need a vocabulary that defines our opposition rather than let them define us. In the world of ideas it is often define or be defined.
Alphabet Soup
This is a reference to the LGBTQIAPP or whatever intialisms are used. I call it Alphabet Soup, because it is a different groups slopped together despite the fact that some form communities, some don’t and they may or may not have any real material relationship to each other. [See also, Initialism.]
Alphabet Soup Scolds
Those individuals and groups in the Alphabet Soup [See Alphabet Soup], who are basically upset that Gay men are having fun. Generally repressive of Gay sexual desire. Also, where jealously is represented ideologically as something else.
Typical things they rail against is dieting, working out at the gym, and guys that some other guy might consider hot.
Initialism
The use of ever longer series of letters such as LGBTQ, LGBTQIA, LGBTQIA2SPP+ lumping together disparate elements and unrelated elements together. [See Alphabet Soup.] It is a tactic where some person outside the Gay community can lecture the Gay community on how their community should work, who they should be, how their events should be constructed, because they are in this fictious community represented by some initialism.
LGBTQXYZ
A way of mocking initialism. [See Alphabet Soup, initialism.]
lgBTQXYZ
A group saying it is LGBTQXYZ, but isn’t really, but is actually really BTQXYZ or QXYZ etc. This can also be done as lgBTQ, lgBTQIA. These groups represent themselves as all of the communities in the letters, but actually don’t and often they are attacking the Lesbian and Gay community or exploiting them to support an agenda. For example, saying something is an attack on the LGBTQ+ when it really doesn’t have anything to do with Lesbians and Gays.
Transgression
An attack on the Gay community by a trans person.
Transplaining
When a trans person is lecturing the members of the Gay community what their sexual desires should include them, or is appropriating the Gay community, asserting that they are the interchangable equivalents to “cis” Gay men, that their strap on or thing from some surgical operation should be considered the equivalent of a penis, or otherwise telling the Gay community how they should exist or think.
