A slang for Exclusionist, usually used on social media.
An Exclus is someone who doesn't want to confront their internalized transphobia and would rather gatekeep terms and sexualities that sometimes even aren't theirs instead of just include nonbinary identities.
Bonus: Nonbinary identities are included in every sexuality, even Straight

slang for exclusionist. basically gatekeeps certain sexualities (mspec labels) that they deem unnecessary or harmful. opposite of inclus / inclusionist who include every sexuality, no matter the historic background or if it's harmful. most exclus and inclus agree that "bi/pan lesbians/gays" aren't valid, though.
i love exclus and i respect them for fighting against harmful sexualities even if they're a minority. i can't believe platforms online support mspec even though actual LGBT people are against them. it's completely performative and they don't really care about LGBT people and will never understand how it feels to get disowned or even threatened to be killed just because of our sexuality. sexuality and pronouns AREN'T a joke and aren't fun or for comfort.
