Gender Equality

Happy pride month everyone :)

**HAPPY PRIDE MONTH 🏳️‍🌈**

Hi Everyone, 
Wishing you all a very happy pride. The reason we celebrate this month is to support self-affirmation, dignity, equality, and increased visibility of the LGBTQQIA+ community. 

***I actually had a question to ask:*** *Lately, I've been seeing a lot of brands convert their logo into a rainbow-coloured version.*
How do you feel about this gesture? And what does pride mean to you? Do you wish brands did something more than just changing their logo?

I'd love to know your opinions and also learn how we, at an individual level & at Now&Me, can be better allies for the LGBT community 💛💚💙💜🧡

LGBTQ

So my parents are vary different my mom doesn’t understand how I feel my dad supports me I came out as bisexual to my mom years ago she said just because I hang out with them does not mean I like them and this year I told my dad and he said if you are in love and happy then I am happy for you and I was raped when I was younger to freshman year to my dad has a deep conversation about my depression he said he understands and all and just today my mom said it should be over by now meaning I shouldn’t be depressed but she makes up things she been through and stuff and I don’t 

Coming Out

I'm bisexual but I don't want to assume it 'cause I'm afraid to not find a girlfriend 'cause I'm more attracted to girls so I tell people that I'm lesbian, I'm confused but I also like boys as well as girls (masc lesbians), some of my 'friends' even told me to choose one and some even said that it disgusted them and even did "🤢" and it hurts. My family are homophobic so I just keep it secret, I had my first girlfriend and looks like she never loved me since she's telling everyone was we were just friends and I don't even know what to reply when someone come and ask me what's my problem since they think that I'm lying but I'm so tired that I just walk away. I think that I have social anxiety 'cause of my family since I hate to go out, my family always judge me and I don't feel safe being with people

I am bisexual and I was able to come out to my mom and some close friends. My mom didn't react when I told her and she hasn't brought it up since (she's not homophobic just uncomfortable talking about my sexuality) and my friends took it really well. The problem is, where I live the homophobia is very bad, and I know if I come out I'm gonna become the outcast on the team I love. I'm a football player, and my teammates are my brothers, but if most of them knew who I truly was they wouldn't touch me with a ten foot pole. I guess I care a little too much what other people think, but the way our world works, we base our lives off of other people's opinions, or at least some of us do. I really want to have the confidence to paint my nails or wear something feminine or go into school with a pride flag strapped around my back like superman. But there's this part of me that knows if i share who I am there's no going back, so I stay sheltered in my masculine façade, waiting for my breaking point, when I cant hold in who I am any longer, and I can finally find happiness not caring what others think.

I’m cisgender male and in search of a cisgender male best friend!! Prolly from LGBTQIA+ Community. I know this ain’t a social media or any sort of friend meeting app!! Still I need them to vent my emotions and feelings out. 

omg guys i tried being somebody else but damn it feels sad and not happy at all i lost everything my friends my job even myself. how can i live in a homophobic place and be myself please help me 

Happy Pride Month Everyone!!!!!
