Happy Pride Month, y’all! June is the month of coming out and new beginnings and coming out again and again and again. I’m a trans individual. And it takes a lot to come out all the time. And in case you missed it (ICYMI, for those hip with the acronyms), so many trans people and kids are being punished for being honest and authentic to themselves, from not being allowed to play sports on teams that align with their gender to being restricted from bathrooms or having businesses be forced to have signage that potentially “outs” a transperson just trying to perform a bodily function.
Be nice, y’all. And ask about pronouns, and share your pronouns. And mind your own business in bathrooms, unless it’s a matter of #I’llGoWithYou.
