For the longest time it used to just be "homosexuals" and then "gays" (for some reason "homosexual" fell out of use and is kind of considered an insult, and not used anymore, even though it is the most "official" term). The term "lesbian" was used if one wanted to be a bit more specific, but they too fell under that same umbrella.
Then the "woke" social justice warriors started gaining a lot of power in society and with it came all kinds of wordplay. I still remember that for a relatively short period of time the first Holy Acronym was just "LGB", but the "T" was quite soon attached to it. It remained that four-letter acronym for quite some time, and in fact many people still use it to this day. However, over the years more and more letters started being attached to it, to the point that there basically is no one single "standard" Holy Acronym. The longest versions of the Acronym are outright ridiculously long, with repeated letters, numbers and symbols. It's just ridiculous.
Why do they insist in this kind of acronym, and why do they keep adding more and more letters and symbols to it? Why are some ridiculously long versions of the acronym being seriously used out there?
There's a peculiar psychology behind it, a psychology that I believe is more prevalent in people with obsessive personalities, particularly when it comes to subject matters that they are passionate about and obsessed with. And this is a personality that loves to categorize and compartmentalize things, to micro-manage different elements of that thing, divide them into categories, each sub-category neatly compartmentalized into its own separate folder.
This kind of behavior can be seen in all kinds of obsessed people and addicts of certain topics. For example porn addicts (especially those of more... niche porn categories), the type who are avid collectors of such pictures and videos and may have literally thousands and tens of thousands of such files in their computers, may spend hours and hours literally subdividing the material into minor categories, literally each in its own folder, and in sub-folders inside those folders, forming an entire directory tree, with each folder meticulously named. Even if it takes them hours and hours, and even though it's mostly completely useless work and serves very little purpose, this kind of obsessive compartmentalization and categorization tickles some part of their brains.
Of course that's just one example of many. And I surmise that far-leftists who are obsessed with "sexualities" do it for the same reason: It just excites their brains to meticulously subdivide, categorize, compartmentalize, write lengthy definitions for each of the literally hundreds or even thousands of little sub-categories. It's one form of obsessive behavior.
It's very similar to why far-leftist activists just love to write lists of demands. It excites their obsessive personalities to think, come up with and write long lists of demands to whichever entity they want to take over. It gives them some kind of satisfaction to think and write down these neat bullet point lists.
The same goes for their millions of different pronouns, of course. However, with pronouns in particular, those serve a dual purpose: Not only do they fulfill their obsession to categorize and compartmentalize things and come up with new categories and terms, but it comes with the added bonus of being able to boss people around with them, control people's speech, play the victim, can gain victimhood points when someone uses the "wrong" pronouns.
