i don& #39;t know if y& #39;all really understand why people are frustrated that gay is an umbrella term... we have no other word for our sexuality. nblm/mlm are umbrella terms that include bi and pan men and non-aligned or male-aligned non-binary people, achillean is also a general+
+nblm/mlm term, homosexual also applies to lesbians. gay was our term originally, now we no longer have one. especially trans or non-binary gays. when we say we& #39;re gay people don& #39;t think we mean gay, they think we mean bi or pan or whatever. it& #39;s frustrating to not have a term+
