San Francisco Pride parade day 1989.
Thank you for this post. I have Complex PTSD from a series of traumas through out my life. The first traumatic experiences came from my family’s reaction to my sexuality/gender. I will say they are on a much lesser scale than the things I experienced later in life, but none the less… I was told things like, “We don’t have gay people in this family.” The church attempted to “pray the gay out of me.” If I was thought to have romantic feelings for someone I was no longer allowed to see them, and I lost my friendship with my best friend from birth because his mother did not approve of me anymore… Don’t get me started on conversion therapy and Ipecac… It all instilled a lot of guilt and self hatred very early on. I don’t know how much it contributed to my addiction, but it definitely didn’t do me any good.
Bisexual trans man checking in 7 days sober. I really appreciate this app and I’m glad I found it, I’m also glad I’ve found all of you. I love this post. Happy pride month everybody! We got this!
Congratulations on your 1 week Alyx.
Thank you so much. Today was really difficult and I thought I wasn’t gonna make it but honestly it feels good to reach this milestone
That first week ten days is the worst. Keep checking in.
Anyone attending any pride parades in their cities?? I’m excited for mine!
We have this sign too! (but also it’s wild that you have to let your neighbors know you aren’t ignorant! )
Happy Pride Month!!!
Last night my partner and I worked a pride party at our friend’s salon. We’re vendors and sell homemade candles, rugs, and macrame planters. It was really fun to see and interact with new people in the community, and our friend had tons of sparkling waters on deck for us We made a bunch of new friends, and I even talked with a drag king who encouraged me to try drag! I’ve always had an interest in trying out drag, but it was really nice to speak with someone who was so enthusiastic and excited for others to join. My only concern is that I cannot do makeup to save my life and I don’t want to look terrible
Sounds super fun!! There are lots of YouTube videos I am sure for makeup. However, find a drag king or queen and ask their advice!! Or have them help. Hope you have a great day!
Is that real?
That’s awesome
I found it on the web. I believe it’s a frozen pizza with new toppings added.
Either way, it’s pretty cool.
Happy pride everybody.
I’ve just been driving around a cool rainbow coloured electric car for a week. It’s the councils pride and inclusivity car which they got last year
It was actually really speedy
Thank you for posting! This is so important. I always wonder how genuine companies are when they fly the rainbow flag this month.
