Remove "queer" as a banned word Queer is not a slur. It is how a HUGE number of people identify, ESPECIALLY by those who are non-binary or exist outside of the gender spectrum.
It is used by prominent politicians, organizations, medical offices, artists, creators, and members of your own site.

Prohibited words in title Why is blm now a prohibited word? It's been in my stream title up until recently when it tells me the word is not allowed. This is not the first time I've not been allowed to use regular words or certain acronyms. Please explain.
