Family Shouldn't Have to Come First
Humans are social animals, and have been from the start. So, it's only natural that our society is built on interacting with each other. However, part of our social nature includes tribalism. We form cliques. We are afraid to leave established groups in favor of new people. We are afraid to leave our families even if it means sacrificing our mental or physical health.

How I Came Out to My Mom... Again
An unedited excerpt from by upcoming book—Dysphoria Diaries—coming April 2030. My second coming out I don’t think any lgbtq+ person would enjoy coming out twice. I know that some have, but I never in a million years would think that I would be the one coming out again. When I came out as a bisexual person, my personal style was evolving; at that time I wanted to wear a mixture of both “men’s” and “women’s” clothing. I wanted my style to be gender neutral. I wanted to have faux dreadlocks, and I wanted to wear them in a messy bun all the time. I wanted to wear makeup, and I wanted to have acrylic nails. At the time, I came to terms with this. I had plans on getting all of this eventually. But when I came out as bisexual, I didn’t tell my mom all of this, I felt like coming out as bisexual was enough “disappointment” for the day. So I just knew that coming out as non-binary was gonna be hard.

Guide to Supporting Your LGBTQ+ Child. Top Story - June 2019.
As Pride Month comes to an end, it is important to remember that queer pride should not just be reserved for one month of the year. LGBTQ+ pride needs to be 24/7, 365 days a year. The acceptance of queer and trans youth is especially important in the home and between family. For some parents, the thought of having an LGBTQ+ child may be difficult to understand, for others, it never even comes to mind until their child comes out. The fact is that queer and trans youth that are accepted by their families are much less likely to commit suicide, or suffer with depression surrounding their sexuality or gender identity. In general, acceptance increases thehappiness in the home, and in the child.
