Pride Month is just around the corner and you know what that means ...
the homophobes and transphobes will be triggered.
But here's the interesting thing about that β the people who complain about Pride are the very reason Pride still exists.
If LGBTQ+ people were fully accepted, protected, and treated with dignity, there would be far less need for a month dedicated to visibility, community, inclusivity and advocacy.
But every year, right on schedule, people show up to complain about rainbow flags, same-sex couples, transgender people, pronouns, drag queens, and the mere existence of LGBTQ+ people.
So every year when someone asks, βWhy do we still need Pride?β
The answer usually shows up in the comments.
Happy Pride to everyone.
