Interesting!

I don’t like this. Sexuality is not linear (no room for trisexual/polysexual/pansexual/asexual etc people) and neither is gender identity (though adding more colors than pink and blue is a nice improvement, but not all non-binary people identify as genderqueer). I don’t know how I feel about biological sex being linear either, as if intersex people are just gradations of male and female.

These things are aimed and are more targeted to people who are just beginning to understand that gender and sexuality are a spectrum.  And visually I can see it being difficult to portray a spectrum of all these identities.  We need these diagrams as stepping stones to get individuals to a more advanced understanding of the identity spectrums.
