Ally up
LGBTQ
How you can be a better ally.
Be supportive, listen and be understanding
Members of the LGBTQ Community face a lot of discrimination, 1/5 LGBTQ Americans face discrimination in public spaces. You can help by listening, and being a good friend, be understanding and don't assume anything.
Speak out about whats wrong
If you see someone spreading lies, or talking about things they do not understand. Speak out. By speaking out you might prevent lies and misconceptions about LGBTQ being spread, and you might teach someone in the process.
Attend Protest/walkouts
As of the year 2022 there has been nearly 240 anti LGBTQ bills signed, and we cant do much about it on our own, however united we can perhaps force a change, and educate the masses on many things that are wrong with those bills, and perhaps even change the government's mind about them.
What is LGBTQ
LGBTQ People are people who are:
Lesbian - women who like women.
Gay - men who like men.
Bisexual - a person that liked men and women.
Trans - Someone’s who's personal identity doesn’t correspond to their birth sex.
Queer - People that are unsure.
and many more.
Why I chose lgbtq as my ally group
We live in California, which is known for how supportive it is for queer community, unfortunately thats not something that everyone was blessed with. I wanted to learn more about the day to day struggles that queer Americans have to face as well as how to be a better ally to them.
