    An ethnicity is a group of people united by culture (among other things) and, LGBTQ+ is definitely a type of culture.

    No, while there is a subculture, they are not an ethnic group. Thus using the term of offensive to people who have been part of genocide. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnicity

    he left wants to expand or restrict what other words mean for various reasons.

    This was converted in 1984. We call it New Speak.

      Which part of your link were you proposing supported your stance? Reading it, it seems to say the opposite of what you are suggesting.

            You’re making the claim that transgender is an ethnicity. I have never seen it used that way in any way. An official document is easy way to prove your position

              Showing you US documents doesn’t make it clear what part of your link made you think it supported your stance. It’s a distraction.

                Where in the link does it show trans gender is an ethnicity? Nowhere. Nothing zero. Zilch

                  The first two sentences.

                  An ethnicity or ethnic group is a grouping of people who identify with each other on the basis of perceived shared attributes that distinguish them from other groups. Those attributes can include a common nation of origin, or common sets of ancestry, traditions, language, history, society, religion, or social treatment.
