Lack of understanding of genderqueer

No of course not. And I know it's used in many ways. That's also why I'd like to encourage those who do ID as genderqueer to explain how they use it.

I also know it's used as an umbrella term - for example there have been dyke, butch, femme, bear, transgender, Transexual, a-gendered, boi, and unnamed gender at bar nights at various times in London and those places, as a general term have been referred to as "genderqueer clubs"

Genderqueer just generally means outside the realm of single gendered woman or single gendered man.

I also know one gal who is a femme gender with masculine pronouns and IDs as a femme daddy. She calls herself genderqueer. It's pretty much anything out of a recognised binary.

But I'd love to hear more from those who do use it, and why.
