Today, I asked this question: https://interpersonal.stackexchange.com/q/21557/21067

I added the [tag:lgbt+] on it with the following explanation:

> I put the lgbt+ tag because changing names is a common issue among the trans community.

A moment later, the tag was removed and, when [I asked in chat][1], people seemed to have mixed feelings about it.

I do believe the [tag:lgbt+] tag was relevant because trans people often have this kind of problems and having this question tagged like that would help them find it so they could give their advice. 

Also, I wanted to use it even though I wasn't ready to say that I belong to the trans community (I later reconsidered because I really wanted to use the lgbt+ tag and because someone told me adding this information might give me better answers).

However, the question remains: **Should have this tag been removed in the first place?**
