Frequently Asked Questions

What is Pride Month?

Pride Month is celebrated in June to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in New York City, a turning point for the LGBTQ+ rights movement. It's a time to celebrate LGBTQ+ identity, remember those we've lost, and continue fighting for equality. Parades, marches, and celebrations happen worldwide. Pride is both a protest and a party — because joy is resistance.

What is the difference between Pride and a Pride parade?

Pride is the broader celebration and movement — the history, the activism, the community. A Pride parade is one expression of Pride — a public celebration of visibility, joy, and solidarity. Some criticize parades as too commercial, but for many, especially in places where it's dangerous to be out, a Pride parade is a powerful act of visibility and courage.

How do I support someone coming out?

Thank them for trusting you. Say 'I love you. I accept you. Nothing changes except I know you better now.' Don't ask invasive questions about their sex life. Don't say 'I always knew.' Don't make it about you. Just listen, affirm, and love them. And then protect their confidentiality — don't out them to others. The best support is presence, not performance.

What does "queer" mean?

Queer is an umbrella term for anyone who isn't straight and/or cisgender. It's used by many as an inclusive, fluid identity. Historically, 'queer' was a slur — and for some, it still is. But many in the community have reclaimed it as a positive, affirming term. Always respect how someone chooses to identify — don't call someone queer if they don't use that word for themselves.

What is the difference between gender identity and sexual orientation?

Gender identity is who you are — male, female, non-binary, etc. Sexual orientation is who you love — gay, straight, bi, pan, ace, etc. They are different. Trans people can be gay, straight, bi, etc. Non-binary people can have any orientation. Don't assume someone's orientation based on their gender identity.

What is the "T" in LGBTQ+ for?

The T stands for transgender and transsexual. Transgender people have a gender identity different from the sex they were assigned at birth. Trans rights are LGBTQ+ rights. Some have tried to exclude trans people from the community, but trans people have always been at the forefront of Pride — including Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera at Stonewall. We stand together.

What does "non-binary" mean?

Non-binary is a gender identity that doesn't fit exclusively into 'man' or 'woman.' Some non-binary people feel like both, neither, or something else entirely. Non-binary people may use they/them pronouns, or other pronouns. They are valid, real, and deserving of respect. Non-binary is not 'trendy' — it's who they are.

How can I be a good ally?

Educate yourself (don't expect LGBTQ+ people to teach you). Use correct pronouns. Speak up when you hear homophobic or transphobic comments. Support LGBTQ+ organizations. Vote for LGBTQ+ rights. Show up — not just in June. Use your privilege to protect those with less. And remember: being an ally is an action, not an identity. Do the work.

What should I say to someone who just came out to me?

'Thank you for trusting me. I love you. I accept you. I'm so proud of you.' And then ask: 'How can I support you? Do you want to talk more?' Don't say 'I always knew' (it can feel dismissive). Don't ask invasive questions. Just be present, loving, and respectful. This moment is about them — not your reaction.

Why do we say "Love is love"?

'Love is love' is a simple, powerful affirmation that all love — whether between same-sex couples, opposite-sex couples, or any other combination — is equally valid, beautiful, and deserving of respect. It counters the idea that some love is 'less than' or 'alternative.' Love is love. Period. End of discussion.
