    This ideology is often due to the claim that the the LGBT+ community is for individuals who are "same gender attracted" (SGA). This ideology also ignores the m-spec individuals who are ''not'' attracted to their own gender (ie: a woman who likes [[Male|men]] and [[agender]] individuals.)

    There is a large amount of overlap between a-spec exclusionists and other exclusionist groups. Many a-spec exclusionist originally took part in so-called "[[bisexual]] discourse" in which they excluded bisexuals using many of the same or similar arguments. Along with biphobia, many exclusionists also gatekeep the LGBT+ community against [[Pansexual|pansexuals]] and [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] individuals. A-spec exclusionists often dislike anyone who does not strictly identify as [[lesbian]], gay, bisexual, or [[transgender]]; as such, many dislike the usage of the word [[queer]], as they believe it to be too inclusive of individuals they believe should not be part of the LGBT+ community. They may also claim that queer is a slur that should not be used at all. A-spec exclusionists may also be [[Transmed|transmedicalists]] or [[TERF|trans-exclusionary radical feminists]].
