The argument that a word is unnecessary and therefore offensive baffles me. No one's going out recategorizing other people's relationships and saying that someone's romance is actually queerplatonic, which would be offensive (but oh, wait, apparently doing the opposite somehow isn't?). No one's relationships are being affected by there being a word out there to describe things that aren't applicable to those particular relationships. Reactions like this make me want to scream.
