    2SLGBTQI+ is widely used in Canada for people who consider themselves two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning or intersex.

      When speaking I always try and say LGBT+, the “+” being everyone else. Or just queer, which is a decent cover-all on it’s own. The ever longer acronyms get in the way of the point.

        think we need to solve this with some regex. Do they accept wild card * ?

        Just physically say 2SLGBTQI+ out loud and hear how ridiculous that sounds.

      2SLGBTQ is a common term in the queer community where I’m from.
