Clearly any persistent ordering of the letters shows an implicit bias. The only reasonable thing is to randomize the letters on each use with (at minimum) a cryptographically secure PRNG.
As an ally, I figure I'm in the +. Or not in the name at all. Ally means an ally, not included in the group. But still welcome.
Straight guy. Wife and I love Pride events. We've never felt unwelcome. Just be cool to everyone.
There are a few in the community who are not inclusive to allies or they suspect ulterior motives. They don't represent everyone and are best left alone.

True but, and hear me out, now it can be pronounced Slug-Butt-Que

I remember as a child playing slug bug on family trips. Playing slug-butt is gonna make those trips pretty awkward

I was reading it as slugbaitqueue myself. Now I'm picturing a rainbow slug mascot waiting in line and it's actually kinda hilarious

You can just put us in the + at the end.

Back in the day it used to be
LGBTQIAA
For queer, intersex, asexual I believe, and ally.
Ally includes basically everything else and turned into the plus

Not gonna lie, adding the S at the start is pretty funny

To be fair, S would be the largest subgroup ;)

So the S isn't for "super?" Well that's a waste.
