Instead of LGBT why not change it to GSM?

Gender and Sexual minorities.

That way theres actually a reason to include the trannies.
>>
GSM (Global System for Mobile communication), plus no one cared enough about the mentally ill to change it.
>>
problem is pedophiles who will try to latch onto it

Wait so it's ok for trannies to latch on but not people of color or pedophiles?
>>
>>5942235

This.

The term will turn ambiguous and confusing once all the special snowflake sexualities and genders are on board.

No but if your argument for allowing T into LGB is that there oppressed too, then you would have to include POC as well. Unless you want to call it gender and sexual minorities.

top b8, made me respond

>>5943095
Yeah, maybe we should include people with disabilities too! And religious minorities!
Oh wait. Specific groups already exist for that specific reason.

If you want to argue that T be it's own separate thing because it has to do with gender instead of sex, then go ahead. But come up with a less half assed argument.
>>
If we're establishing a term for it to make more sense why even both lumping together gender and sexual minorities at all? It was an erroneous link created by a flawed understanding. There's no logical reason why gender and sexual minorities should be together.

And why should asexual and gay people share a moment also? They want entirely different things and entirely different spaces. Let's just have a Homosexual rights movement, covering gay, lesbian and bisexual and a separate Transgender rights movement. No needless and ignorant lumping together of people who are entirely fucking different.

Black people can't be LGBT

>ok
>>
>>5946059
there's significant overlap between the T and the LGB though. Most trans people seem to be bi or pan or whatever people are calling it. Plus things that trans people want also overlap with the LGB part. Generally speaking as a group that represents only a small part of the population (10% if you're being super generous) LGBT people shouldn't be splintering off because then they would be completely powerless. That's probably what the concern trolls want.

Why not just have LGB and then T on its own? The special snowflake shit can fuck right off.

>>5946228
black people __________ LGBT

how is this hard to grasp

probably because it doesn't matter

What do you mean by this?

>>5943095
LGBT isn't a bin for sexuality, its a bin for fags

No? The people who support trans and gay rights still would support trans and gay rights. Literally nothing would change aside from getting rid of an erroneous link made by people who didn't know what they were talking about. Movements aren't exclusive.

If you want to get into trans people being gay then everything they want from the gayness is covered by the gay movement. While the transness is covered by the trans one. They're not a "bisexual trans dancer", you shouldn't flanderise people like that. They're a trans person who is also bisexual and a dancer. They can be all at the same time without defining themselves by it entirely. They can be gay and trans abd still support both.

Why not "androphilia"?
>>
Ok, do it.

Start using the term if you want to, that's how language change works. It's all mostly arbitrary anyway.

That guy sounds like an insecure fag.

>>5949253
That's because he is, anon.

>>5942064
There is nothing beside from LGBT that is affected in any way by LGBT issues. Asexuals have no need for any political change and enbees dont exist.
>>
>>5949667
We do exist, though.

HBT is the only one that makes sense
