What LGBTQ+ topic do you wish more people knew about? This could be a queer icon, a piece of history, knowledge about certain labels, specific philosophy topics (or notable philosopher), art, or anything else. Also if there are topics that you wish specific sub populations had greater access to or knowledge of, feel free to qualify (for example, you might wish there was greater knowledge about a specific cultural gender to all cultures which don't have exposure to this gender, or a desire for your local gay community to be more educated on a topic important to you).

This is such a small thing which I have so few occasions to use, but I wish the term "QUILTBAG" had become more popularized when it was coined in 2006 (caps are for accuracy, not shouting). It's just more fun to say, and I'm a sucker for a good acronym

That is an amazing acronym and I wish to see it everywhere!

Also dating from that time, pronouncing LGBT as Legbutt. I love it because having a leg on your butt is extremely normal actually.
