Supporting everyone I can, in anyway I can. My Trans flag is in the back window of my car year round - it's not a big party month for me - It's more just blocking out what terrible family members say when they hear about pride...I want away from them so badly. Otherwise, reaching out and trying to make friends and make others feel accepted. It's not so much a month for me. At the same time crying in my bed wishing I could be me, and wishing I came out a long long time ago. Sorry for being a downer. I'll probably go to Sephora and get a makeover - they are nice to me there. IMO the best way to celebrate pride is to normalize it and not make it an event. But I'm so happy that there even is a Pride month - I just wish it was more popular when I was younger. Sorry again.

Oh Brooke, you NEVER need to apologize for feeling this way. I am so very sorry that your family members are not accepting. I know you do not know me and I may be much older than you, but as a biromantic asexual women who is still closeted and knows that I may never be able to to come out for fear of being rejected by friends and family, I send you so many hugs. You are so incredibly and wonderfully you. I truly hope that you find loving friends and or colleagues who accept you for you are! Now go get that amazing makeover at Sephora and celebrate how amazing you are! I hope that you get to celebrate Pride month in your own special way. You are not alone and as another member of the LGBTQIA+ community I stand with you.

Same way I celebrate LGBTQA+ pride every month: Support the right for you to be you. For me to be me. It's a human right. We're all on some spectrum/rainbow of some kind, in our own ways, so ... I just keep on with telling politicians and religious nutters that nobody's setting laws about their (presumably) hetero-normative lives, so just shut up, sit down, and do something productive, like feed the hungry, or demonetize higher education.

I can't do too much, as I'm in school, but I have a cute rainbow flag I stick in my backpack pocket, wear many colorful pride bracelets, and text/email/say "Happy Pride Month [insert heart emoji]", as well as answer questions others may have. I also make paintings and simple sketches related to pride, and dive into those pride-related books!! Happy Pride Month beautiful people!

I did that last year--"This Book is Gay" by Juno Dawson--because I wanted to better understand my LGBTQIA+ friends. Turns out...I've been ace my whole life and just always thought it was normal to have zero interest in sex. I'm 44. (shrug)

My daughter came out about 18 months ago, so this is my second year to actually celebrate Pride Month! Sadly, before that, I was one of those people who was like "Ugh. Why do they NEED a Pride Month! They're shoving it in my face! Blah blah blah!" (I am NOT proud of that!)
BUT things are different now and my FAVORITE way to celebrate Pride Month is by volunteering with Free Mom Hugs at Pride celebrations in my area! I absolutely LOVE doing this! I've been to two celebrations so far, and am scheduled for another one at the end of the month!

I am a pansexual panda who eats pancakes on a pan. I need a pansexual badge so badly and a friend is handing out pride bandages to my lgbtqa+ classmates. I hope I get a pansexual badge soon.

Congrats on your amazing, unique family. Some are unfortunately not, but I'm sure, against the homophobes wishes, this will be the future and they will have to deal with it. We need more Moms like you out there! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈

this might sound a little strange but i "revisit" my childhood by watching old disney princess movies and thinking about little me and how she would be so happy to know that she is allowed to like women
i also listen to wlw music while painting said disney princesses as couples to make both me (an 18 year old) and my inner 8 year old smile
happy pride to my fellow lesbians and obviously to every other member of the lgbtq+ community!

I celebrate June for all it's worth! From hiking in the mountains and fishing in waters that are ice cold from snow melt. From encouraging seeds to sprout into flowers and vegetables in my gardens and beds. June is a wonderful month! The final month of transitioning from winter to summer is a constant celebration of nature at its finest!

Sorry I came late; I celebrate in secret by making art because my family is extremely anti LGBT.

My hometown library has a lovely display of lgbtqia+ materials. Within hours (not days, my Pandas, hours) they started receiving complaints and nasty comments about it. One person accused the librarians of "grooming children." SMH. I feel the need to go check out more books now.
