Constitutionalist / Universalist
Currently the political movement to include LGBT individuals,
right down to demanding of others what pronouns or labels to call them
(where refusal to comply is considered discrimination and harassment),
doesn't yet recognize "ex-gays" or "ex-trans."
Should LGBT be expanded to include LGBTX?
Also, why stop there with only these minorities?
Why not recognize ALL people with alternative beliefs, identity or preferences
of labels and terms:
What about Atheists requiring that references to God be changed to
Greater Good or Public Good?
Or God's laws to be called Universal Laws or Laws of Nature?
Could Christians insist that references to Justice be called by the name of Jesus?
And vice versa, secularists insist that if you are going to talk to them about Jesus,
then have "courtesy" and use the term Justice to avoid harassing nontheists.
If anyone is complaining about the recent court case, NOT forcing teachers
to use transgender pronouns,
just imagine if other faith based groups or people of other or no beliefs,
started demanding public accommodations for each and every
preference in belief, identity or terminology
to avoid "offending" or "harassing" them!
