Left is lesbian pride flag, right is gay male pride flag. Rainbow is basically the catch all LGBTQ pride flag.
I swear, Zoomers and ever more specific labels...
What? These things have been around long before zoomers.
Down with specificity! We want the confusion that arises from ambiguity! Things were confusing in my day and I will not put up with people being able to understand each other! Harrumph to you good sir! A harrumph and another harrumph for good measure!
In my day everyone was just straight or queer. You could get more descriptive if you want, but no one cared about the particulars of your sexuality unless they were interested in fucking you.
I do not give a fuck about the particulars of anyone's life. Here's the thing, if you actually didn't care you'd not be complaining, now would you? Whenever I see this shit I just give a blank "Ok" and move on about my day because I genuinely don't care.
I think it's silly. That's the extent to which I care. Which is more than zero, enough to post about it, but not much more than zero.
I guess technically I have a vague worry about the general increase in tribalism among gen z but this is a tiny part of that. And probably the most benign aspect.
