Just to offer an alternative that I don’t think I’ve seen voiced yet:

parmaq’e’ loD maSbogh loD ghaH.

and the equivalent {be’} phrase.

Love is love.

charghwI’ vaghnerya’ngan

rInpa’ bomnIS be’’a’ pI’.

 I've started using Har'ey, rainbow, to refer to LGBTQ+ people: Har'ey tachHar'eynganpu', Har'ey loD ghaH'a' etc. DeSDu' and I came up with this while sitting in a gay bar and struggling to talk about it.

This is decidedly not canon, and has nothing to do with fictional Klingons. I also don't hate le'yo', pride, being used with lgbtq connotations. (Google Klingon Pride and there's a good picture of the Timmins Klingons with a le'yo' sign.) I don't have a good way to be more specific than that, yet. le'yo'ngan ghaH, loD ghaH parmaqqayDaj'e'. ???

Tangent: Think of the valences maqoch and chaj could take on in some gay/lesbian/bi/pan fiction!
Another tangent: SIHwI' and SIHmoHwI' for "top" and "bottom."

I noticed talk about neutral gender yesterday, which leads me to ask about LGBT terminology as a whole, since it's heavily gendered language. 

Concerning trans people, I've defaulted to be' ghe'/be' ghe'pu' and loD ghe'/loD ghe'pu', but I welcome any suggestions.

As for gay/lesbian/bi and straight people, I'm have no idea, although I know it's been at least implied by MO before. Anybody know how one would say that?

Thanks for maintaining this mailing list.
