"Queer" is the proper nomenclature after all, and is no longer considered a derogatory or politically-incorrect term.

Quote:
LGBTQ: "LGBTQ" is an acronym that originated in the 1990s and replaced what was formerly known as "the gay community." The acronymn was created to be more inclusive of diverse groups. LGBTQ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (and/or questioning) individuals/identities.

A success story for the gays, they took a slur word and made it their own.

It is interesting that a word that most of us thought was derogatory is not.
