      No it’s not, it’s adding random extras to the acronym. LGBTQ covers the range. Add the + if you really want to. Anything past that and it’s baiting ridicule and defeating the purpose of an acronym.

        It’s also Canada focusing on indigenous peoples for its inclusion in the list. 2S is usually at the front in Canada.

        From my understanding, it’s an indigenous/aboriginal/native identity concept. Roughly, the idea is that one body has two spirits.
