Other Pride Flag
Othered or otherized: someone who belongs to the socially subordinate category of the Other.
Within LGBT+ perspective, people represented by the plus in the acronym are usually considered the "others" (it can be a reclaimed slur), but queer people as a whole can be othered, as well as any sociopolitically marginalized people as anomie in biopolitics.
Otherness, othering, otherizing, and alterity are also conceptualized in philosophy and psychology. Similar to subalternization in postcolonial studies and critical theory.
