Что такое alphabet mafia
Обновлено: 05.07.2024
Alphabet mafia is a slightly controversial term used to refer to LGBTQIA people. Originally coined by intolerant people who intended to mock the ever-growing LGBTQIA (or LGBTTQQIAAP, if you really want to go for broke) acronym, alphabet mafia has since been reclaimed by LGBTQIA people who think the label sounds dope as heck.
The bigots who created the term alphabet mafia intended to demonize non-heteronormative people by implying they were members of a secret, unsavory cabal. In years past, similarly intolerant people attempted to label gay people as part of the gay or homosexual mafia.
However, the name alphabet mafia did not catch on among bigots - possibly because they realized how cool it sounded. Claiming the term as their own, LGBTQIA people have since begun referring to themselves as members of the alphabet mafia. There is now even an LGBTQ+ podcast and clothing brand that calls itself The Alphabet Mafia.
Even among LGBTQIA people, however, there are some who would prefer their community stop using the term alphabet mafia. For example, those who live in countries where the mafia is a real, threatening presence may be uncomfortable thinking of themselves as members of the alphabet mafia.

About Alphabet Mafia
First and foremost, Alphabet Mafia is one big gay family. We are also the first specialized LGBTQ+ brand, creating pride clothing for you. We got tired of corporate retailers seemingly taking advantage of our community by slapping rainbows on products and calling it "pride", so we started our own. Founded by LGBTQ+ individuals. In addition to taking pride in our identity, we want to take that a step further.
Our mission is to create a safe and welcoming space for people of any orientation or identity. We want our logo to serve as a beacon to those who may be lost or struggling with their identity, to find comfort knowing that the stranger in the gym or on the bus understands what they are going through.
In continuing the brand's mission, Alphabet Mafia also has a podcast in which LGBTQ+ individuals from various backgrounds share their story, struggles with identity, journey and ultimate discovery of who they are. New episodes come out every Tuesday and Friday morning and can be found on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, or just ask Amazon Alexa to "play The Alphabet Mafia Podcast".
