Can we just rename this and all Queer pages to LGBT+ please? It's in really bad taste for a lot of members of the community and a lot of people are against queer being reclaimed.

Queer is an umbrella term. It's a simple straight-forward word. What's the problem. Does it carry a lot of baggage cause tons of gay kids were insulted with that word? Lots of black people were insulted with nigger but they still call their friends that.

Can this index include tropes about gender nonconformity such as In Touch with His Feminine Side?

I've got a question. shouldn't there be some kind of trope regarding asexuals (and aromantics)? and possibly more than one? you know, like Sherlock - too busy being clever to be attracted to anyone. or the other one, "this person is shy and has no social skills so they're also ace". or the one with being really passionate about a hobby so you "have no time for romance" (aka Charlie Weasley). just wondering. maybe it's because I'm ace but I see them far too often

Can't find anything. Maybe Quickie Questions can help.

Well, I see that it was confusing enough for a new acronym to be created for that acronym. Still can't find what it means though. Kinda silly if you ask me. We are approaching US Navy levels of crazy ass acronyms here...

Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, Allies and Pansexual. No idea what the second P is (typo?). I assume GQ is qenderqueer. But really, we should have just stuck to LGBT, since everyone knows what that is, and the page only touches on gender minorities and doesn't seem to mention romantic minorities at all.

I have a serious problem with the Have you tried not being a monster trope being a queer (or homo or whateversexuality) trope due to the abundance of Friendly Neighborhood Vampires and other creatures getting the same treatment lately. It's hit the TRS for something else, but I'd like to see it change to a more... indicative trope than what it is.
