I really hate how there seems to be no one in the arts which speak out against this, aside from J.K Rowling. I hate that the art culture promotes adoption of these so-called "progressive" views because art culture preaches "freedom of thought" but neglect to encourage "critically analyse thought". I hope we can abandon the "T". It was originally "LGB" and that acronym rolls off the tongue better. The acronym was originally meant to represent non-heteros regardless of their hobbies and their beliefs. If we are are to include every single category, let's start adding races to the acronym too, it's redundant, the acronym doesn't include nor exclude anyone.

Hell, that acronym is used to identify the group of people and a way to identify communities and identify movements (by giving them a name) to stop the oppression of LGB people and for others to communicate they're not heterosexual. So the need to "include" as much different minorities in the acronym is not even relevant and can detract the original focus of the issues. Anyone can fight for LGB rights, hetero or not. It's like fighting for animal rights, you don't need to create an alphabet acronym to represent every single non-human creature nor do you need to be one. I feel included regardless whether if I'm a homosexual or not.

Edit: Changed my comment a bit because I just realised I said something wrong and have created a horrible point about the LGB acronym.

I'm thinking of drawing jobseeker comics to unleash my long-time jobseeking frustration and to mock the jobseeking systems. Along with that, I also want to mock the gender delusion with my comics too.
