Alternative Initialism

Alternative Initialisms or Acronyms for a gender/sexual identity umbrella movement have been suggested as a solution to the ongoing fragmentation of the modern LGBTQI+ movement into assimilationist and radical subsets, and the increasing visibility of paraphiles and MAPs.

• QTIMAPZ+ consists of: Queer, Trans, Invalid(ated), Minor Attracted People, A-spec, Paraphiles, Zoophiles + Others.

The inclusion of the term "Queer" with the specifier "Invalid(ated)" is intended to place emphasis on the historical and theoretical meaning of Queerness.

• QTIP+ has also been suggested as a shorter version, but is also in use for a patented personal hygiene product and a musician.

• LGBTP To include pansexuals or pedophiles has been suggested, although often in the context of trolling, due to the pejorative nature of the term "pedophile". Dr James Cantor, a gay psychologist, has been known to support the inclusion of pedophiles in principle, with his series of infamous "include the P" tweets.
