Among a crowd that includes a lot of furries, actually! "Queer" as an identification has lately been picked up (revived and reclaimed, really) as, among other things, a way of opting out of a lot of the assimilationist and gym-clone tropes that've taken over so much of what it means to be "gay". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queer has a reasonable overview, to which I'd add only that it's also a good term of identification for men who love men, but who find "gay" to be so rigid and prescriptive in its meaning that it fails to accurately describe us.
