Creating a pride club at my school has helped offer not only a space for support, but for conversations about the importance of self-exploration and understanding.
Because visibility is key.

For nine months, I stood outside of grocery stores asking people to support LGBT rights. I launched the "Reject Stereotypes, Accept People" Campaign at a conservative business university. I always compliment people on their style.
Because after I dyed my hair purple and got tattoos, people started rolling their eyes every time I spoke. Because I grew up not knowing girls could be gay. Because LGBT youth are 4 times more likely to contemplate suicide or self-harm.

Being a good friend
I am currently student teaching in a first grade classroom. Every day I treat my students with respect and compassion because I want to see them grow to be the best that they can be. They may just be 5 and 6 years old but they are already so smart and so thoughtful!

I am an outlet to my friends, family and even strangers to come to and ask questions regarding safe sex and the LGBTQ community. I was the first person one of my friends came out to.
I have never had negative labels. I created and publicly identified by my own words and actions my whole life. Labels describe me; my personality, my orientation, my gender identity, how I see the world, but I never let them define me.

I treat cows, pigs, sheep, goats, alpacas, llamas, and other food animals just like I do dogs and cats. They're no different!
