    Not buying it. Probably just scared of the well deserved ridicule received if they identify as Republican. We’ll see how the vote goes.

      You’re dubious because why? Do you think there were only two options? Do you identify as republican or LGBTQ?

      This is actually quite interesting. For me, answering a questionaire like this is frustrating because the true answer is much more nuanced than what the given options are and I feel like I know what they’re trying to ask but my honest answer is going to give them confusing results from which they’re going to pull incorrect conclusions from.

      For example: Politically I’m slightly right from centre but I’ve always voted left. I’m also non-straight but I don’t identify as LGBTQ (I literally had to look up the correct way to type that)

        If you identify as non-straight then you’re identifying as LGBTQ. Don’t get hung up on the specific letters in the acronym, that sort of changes from year to year. You can pretty much sum it up to literally mean anything that isn’t straight which is what you said you are.

          If you identify as non-straight then you’re identifying as LGBTQ.

          No I don’t. That’s the point; if this is asked on a questionaire my answer will be no. It’s irrelevant if other people want to label me like that - I don’t.

            You labeled yourself non-straight. That falls under LGBTQ.

            Edit: I’m not trying to force you to use the acronym, I’m just saying “non-straight” most definitely falls under it.

        Weird that your response got downvoted, but that seems to be how things go on here. Weird, but not surprising. If you’re slightly right from center, you sound like a centrist Dem.
