That’s my point though. We already exclude some sexual and romantic orientations. I’m not suggesting we change that or suggesting anyone (except homophobes) are doing that.
My point is LGBTQ+ isn’t just a catchall for everything. I don’t see why sex-act preference (or non-sexual BDSM/kink preference) would be included. Just like it doesn’t include people simply for being jewish, neurodivergent, or every other marginalized group.
Still, even if LGBTQ+ did include the kink community, that still does not justify removing city-sponsored LGBTQ+ pride support. If anything, they should more explicitly state their support for kink community.
