    Why the 2?

      LGBTQ 2 has better graphics, split-screen multiplayer, a customizable interface, and hot-swappable controls. It also supports macros.

      But now you have to pay for DLC maps.

      It’s LGBT Q2. It’s the second quarter for the LGBT corporation.

      It stands for “two spirit,” which is an Indigenous term for a gender identity similar to being transgender. Canada has been making a more concerted effort to acknowledge and respect Indigenous views and traditions, so it’s added to the LGBT+ acronym in Canada

        I have no idea what any of this means lol. How’s it different from the T? If they “added” it on, then where did the + go? I’m old and confused and people are just people regardless so I have no idea what is the correct term for anyone anymore, y’all are just humans to me.

        What if you don’t believe in spirits or souls?

          You get kicked out of the rainbow and have to make your own rainbow.

            When did the rainbow go from “it’s OK that some people want to have sex with their own gender” to “you must believe in abstract religious concepts”

        I always thought it was for 2A, for asexual and ally.

        Having allies be a part of the acronym is a whole other debate though.

      I’m not sure of why anything but Q is involved, doesn’t Queer basically cover everything that isn’t Hetero? Also I thought people were against labels, but maybe I was wrong since everyone seems to want a label now.

        Don’t know the answer to your question but wanted to support the question anyway. I don’t get why you’re being downvoted

            Thanks! I’d never heard of it and my comment asking about it was a bit judgey, but I appreciate the info.
