You already know what month is here: PRIDE MONTH, where we celebrate ourselves and let our voices be heard. Let people see that you don’t have to be straight to be loved and accepted and show people that they don’t have to be afraid.

Be who you are, it is our month and it is time to be proud- don’t let anyone discourage you, you are happy and that’s all that matters.

Who does pride month celebrate well pride month celebrates the “lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) social and self acceptance, achievements, legal rights, and pride.” That’s not all pride celebrates it also celebrates you and that’s the most important thing of all.
