 An '''Exclusionist''', also known as an '''Exclus''', '''Exclu''', or '''Reactionary Exclusionist Gatekeeper (REG)''', is someone who attempts to gatekeep the [[LGBT+|LGBT]] community by claiming that certain groups aren't "really" LGBT based on their own definition. The term includes [[TERF|TERFs]], TEHMs, [[Transmedicalism|truscum]], enbyphobes, [[A-Spec Exclusionist|aphobes]], biphobes, [[M-Spec Exclusionist|mphobes]], and ENM ([[Ethical Non-Monogamy|ethical non-monogamy]]) exclusionists.
 == How exclusionism is harmful ==
-Exclusionism is harmful, not only because it ignores what being LGBT+ means, but also because it leaves out essential groups and invalidates the harm and lack of representation done to other members of the community. Many exclusionists believe that to be LGBT+ you have to be severely oppressed. While this is how the LGBT+ community started, it is not what defines the LGBT+ community, as not all people of a certain sexuality, gender, or relationship type are oppressed to the same extent.

-The LGBT+ community is a space for anyone who are not [[queern't]], whether oppressed harshly or not. The LGBT+ community is supposed to promote diversity in sexuality, sex, gender, and relationships; which by nature includes [[A-Spec|a-spec]], [[Ethical Non-Monogamy|non-monogamous,]] and any other [[queer]] identity, whether oppressed or not. So long as they are lacking attention and validation in media and everyday life, are ''safe'' and ''consentual'', they are LGBT+.
