This LGBT thing becoming a confusing bandwagon

    Gimme an "L"
    First there were the lesbians cause ladies first I guess

    Gimme a "G"
    Next there were the gays & now we have an umbrella group, that makes perfect sense

    Gimme a "B"
    Well that's bisexuals which are a offshoot but I suppose they belong here although their not 100% gay

    Gimme a "T"
    So know we have the transgenders which may or may not be gay or straight but are looking to change gender & for it to be legally recognised.
    That's all very well & it's a cause I agree in but I'm not sure whether their needs are best suited under this grouping

    Do original gay activists feel their message is not becoming diluted under this extended umbrella, is LGBT a media construct for an easy pigeon hole ?, I don't know.

    Has the expansion of the group stopped now at "T" or are any other minority groups looking to tag on the bandwagon ?.
