Etymology
The word 'queer' originated in the late 16th century from the German 'quer', meaning 'oblique' or 'askew'. Initially, it was used in English with the meaning of 'strange' or 'peculiar'. In the early 20th century, 'queer' began to be associated with homosexuality, often used derogatorily. However, in the late 20th century, the term was reclaimed by the LGBTQ+ community, transforming into a descriptor of pride and identity for non-heteronormative individuals. The comparative 'queerer' has emerged as society has progressed, reflecting ongoing shifts in understanding gender and sexual identities, as well as promoting inclusivity and acceptance of diverse sexual orientations.
