Am I a Tig or a Sarah?
There is pressure to define yourself within a community. Even just breaking down the LGBTQ+ label you can be lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or questioning. If you go for the extended version of the acronym and add the IA to the end, you can be intersex, asexual, or aromantic. The plus sign stands for everything else that we don’t mention in casual conversation because we’d spend so much time naming labels that the actual conversation would get lost. These are the ones people know about. But within each of those, there are more subcategories. Lesbians, for example, can be butch, femme, stone butch, lipstick, chapstick, gold star, b-o-i boi, power, hasbian, until-graduation, baby dyke, etc. etc. and on forever.
