Sunsetting Pride 2024
Happy Pride! As Pride Month 2024 begins to sunset, I want to congratulate every individual who has become brave enough to take control of their life and live as their authentic, beautiful self. This is a month when it highlights those accomplishments. From acceptance within families and friends to acknowledgement in the political arena. Starting with Stonewall (and events prior) leading to the Supreme court ruling for same-sex marriages. We are here, we are queer, and we should never live in fear.

A Letter to the Baby Queers
To All Whom It May Concern (even if you don't know it yet), I must begin with my deepest apologies. I'm sorry that for all our struggles and gains over the past decades, true acceptance still seems so far away. Gay marriage is legal, but disabled Queers can't take advantage of that without losing the benefits that keep them alive. Pronouns and Gender-Affirming care is becoming more common, but trans-athletes experience pushback and no politicians seem willing to look for a third option.

Community Workshops on Sex Education
Sex education significantly impacts young people's understanding of their bodies, relationships, and personal safety. Throughout my career, I’ve seen firsthand how community workshops play a vital role in bringing together the learning that takes place in both school and home environments. These workshops help parents and educators align on the content and values taught about sexuality and relationships. This alignment is crucial for providing consistent and supportive messages to students, reinforcing their understanding and encouraging healthier behaviors.

"The Paradox of Pride: Seeking Acceptance Without Celebration". Content Warning.
I've been openly gay since birth, yet I've never attended a pride parade. I think the only reason I'd go is to meet attractive people, but from what I've seen online, Pride isn't where they go. During Pride month, there's a push to take pride in something you didn't choose. Being told to be proud of being gay feels like being told to be proud of having brown hair or two hands. These aren't things I chose; I just happened to be born this way.
