A phrase meaning "whatever gives you sexual pleasure" or "whatever sexual activity you enjoy." It's used similarly to "whatever floats your boat," but specifically carries a knowing, often ironic, reference to sexual preferences and activities.
Originates from the excuse used by anti-gay activist George Rekers in 2010 when caught traveling with a male escort ("rent boy"). Rekers absurdly claimed he only hired the young man to literally lift his luggage.
Popularized by sex columnist Dan Savage and comedians like Stephen Colbert, who seized on the flimsy excuse. "Lifting someone's luggage" became a euphemism for providing sexual pleasure, often (but not exclusively) in a same-sex context.
The phrase "Whatever lifts your luggage" extends this to a general, sexually-tinged statement of acceptance for someone's preferences or kinks.

The phrase "Whatever lifts your luggage" extends this to a general, sexually-tinged statement of acceptance for someone's preferences or kinks.
As a general statement of acceptance (like "whatever floats your boat," but sexual):
Person A: "I don't understand their particular fetish."
Person B: "Hey, whatever lifts your luggage, right? Live and let live."
As a euphemism for the sexual act itself (often using the verb form "lift luggage"):
"He claimed he was just going over to 'study', but judging by the sounds, I think they were lifting some luggage."
"After Rekers got caught, everyone joked about whether he found someone else to lift his luggage."
With direct ironic reference to the origin:
"He spends all day condemning 'the lifestyle' online, but you just know he's secretly looking for someone to help lift his luggage."

Hym "So you DON'T have a right to use theft, stalking, and gaslighting to make me say you kids lives have value and they don't deserve die or Jews good and not literal Nazi. Fantastic. So, I'm going to need that money from both my labor and my property and the only way you are not going to pay me is if some kids die for this. So, my rights NOW... OR... Your kids rights will be revoked. You Have A Right To Say Whatever You Want To Say... About me getting my money... And I'm sure you will. I genuinely can wait to see it. But, in the mean time, Jews bad! Hilter was right! If Hilter succeeded how would have ended racism once and for all. Your kids are shit. When they die it heals the world. Retards bad. All of them. I (exclusively) should be allowed to rape women."
