    If anything, I’ve gotten even more progressive over time.

      Yeah, agreed. I’ve learned a lot about gender minorities and issues affecting the 2SLGBTQ+ population in the last decade.

          Yes, starting with 2S is part of Canada’s move toward Truth & Reconciliation with our local First Nations, to recognize how the intersectionality of racism further marginalizes Two Spirit First Nations people.

        Hot take, 2slgbtqia+ is cringe. I vote we should keep it at lgbt+ or lgbtq+ stop making the community sound unapproachable and weird.

          I get that, but 2SLGBTQ+ is the most politically acceptable term in Canada. It’s used by politicians and in education, and the 2S being at the start is a conscious act of reconciliation with our First Nations.
