Gender's alphabet soup.

"IT'S A MIXED UP muddled up shook up world," proclaimed The Kinks. Through the secular "progressive" looking glass, the term "sexual orientation" has, in a few short years, evolved to accommodate an ever-expanding fruit basket of carnal appetites. First it was "LGB"--liberal shorthand for "lesbian, gay, and bisexual." Then they added a "T" for "transgender." That is crossdressing--like 45-year-old Clay Francis (aka "Colleen"). Mr. Francis enjoys macrame, long walks on the beach, wearing lady's knickers, and showering fully nude with six-year-old girls. Because it is illegal to "discriminate based on the basis of gender identity," and since it is the only "tolerant" thing to do, this brave bellwether of the persecuted LGBT victim class has secured the "civil right" for him and other men to expose themselves fully to your daughter in the lockerroom at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Wash.

According to the law, if you have a problem with Mr. Francis bating all to your baby girl, then you are the problem. You are a "transphobe" (13omophobia's evil twin sister, er, brother ... whatever). Deck this sicko for terrifying your first-grader and you are off to jail while "Colleen" is off to the Human Rights Campaign for a commendation as the latest victim of an anti-LGBT hate crime.

To make sure they did not miss anyone, the pooh-babs over at Child Corruption Central added a "Q" to the sexual orientation mix. In case some fifth-grader in Ms. Adamsapple's health class gets the urge to "taste the rainbow" (and I do not mean Skittles), the catch-all term "questioning" was tacked on.

According to the gay activist group GLSEN, sexuality is "fluid" and "may change over time." Unless, of course, you already are gay; then change is impossible, fixed, and immutable. Like that hotel in California, "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave."

Nobody said it's supposed to make sense. Still, because progressives are not progressive unless they are progressing toward progress, this nonsensical alphabet soup of sexual deviancy has ballooned to a marvelous "LGBTQQIAAP." No kidding. The latest word salad in the counterheterosexist war against "heteronormativity" (yes, they consider these real things) is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning, Queer, Intersex, Asexual, Allies, and Pansexual. In Canada, they have added 2S, which means: "Two-spirit. The visionaries and healers of aboriginal [sic] communities, the gay and lesbian shamans."
