Intersex is now part of the ever-growing acronym? Really? I think I've mentioned my distaste about such things before. So now it seems that we have become LGBTQQIAA. WTF? Can we at least get a few more vowels so it's an actual word?
It seems to me that, in the time I grew up as an adult gay person, our identity WAS about "sexual orientation". Then we changed our tack, because we needed people to understand that our "orientation" was about more than sex (for some of us anyway), and that it wasn't as simple as us having a "preference". I think we screwed ourselves in doing so. The activists in the 80s tried very hard to break free of the gender myth and show that there were no definitive lines about what it meant to "act like" a man, woman, boy, or girl. There was some truth and justice in that.
But look at what's happened. "Queer" and "questioning" were words grassroots organizations made up to make our "community" more "inclusive". OK. But let's look at what the "community" has been trying to accomplish. Mostly civil rights issues I'd say. Do all people deserve basic human freedom? Of course they do. Did we need straight allies to help us? Sure, but did we have to then tack that onto ourselves to, what, PROVE that we had straight support? What a bunch of crap.
It is my understanding that Asexual is sexless, having no desire or interest in sex, perhaps androgynous, whatever. I fail to see how this category became such a necessity to include as part of our "community."
Asexuality and "transgender" (another made up word, to my knowledge) are largely issues of biology, so where is their place among a small percentage of our population who only started decades ago to simply fight for the freedom to love the people we were choosing to love?
Transexuals in particular I have nothing against, but the desire to actually BE the opposite sex has to do with a personality disorder listed in the DSM IV and nothing at all to do with freedom of love and partnership.
What began as a cry against "boys wear blue and girls wear pink" has mushroomed into this clusterfuck of too many issues to belong to one "group" as it were. Where does it end?

This means that God is "allowing" this man to come forth at this time to eventually rule most, if not all of the earth, for a specified period of time As new messages are received in Microsoft Outlook, right-click on the message and left click on the command Create a Rule to apply a category or move the message to a folder If we're going to take this lame saying seriously, then why aren't we demanding that our kids be lazy, do everything wrong and take drugs? Then we could sit back and watch them do just the opposite? Why would God have wasted his time with Ten Commandments? Couldn't He have done better with the ten sinful options? Maybe we should be grateful that God doesn't have any notions The megaliths and stelae or other Neolithic Libraries are the subject of serious investigation again
