LGBT - Walt has used that unwieldy set of initials before to refer to the queer lobby, the Lesbian, Gay, Bi and Transgendered folks. Don't call me a homophobe. I didn't make that up. It's their own way of referring to their "community". Until this week.
Now we must add a "Q", making it "the LGBTQ community". I'm not making this up. I found that in an upcoming event announcement in my local paper yesterday.
What does "Q" stand for? I know what you're thinking! That's what I thought too. But it turns out "Q" is for "Questioning", i.e. those who aren't sure what they are! As the Aussies say, "you wouldn't read about it..."
