THIS JUNE, LGBTQ (LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, TRANSGENDER, QUEER/QUESTIONING) PERSONS IN AMERICA CELEBRATE PRIDE MONTH. SO I WANTED TO KNOW: WHAT DOES PRIDE MEAN TODAY & HOW DOES IT RELATE TO THE EVER-EVOLVING LGBTQ COMMUNITY?
Pride starts with self-acceptance and should stop before arrogance. We need to be proud of who we are, what we are, what we've accomplished and the challenges we're meeting every day. With pride, we want society to acknowledge our part in it, as any other community.
I think that pride involves who we are individually as gay men and collectively as the gay community. Our pride includes patience, tolerance and compassion for those outside our community.
