A lil reminder for 🏳️🌈Pride🏳️🌈 season if you’re…
- Not out of the closet yet (or ever)
- Questioning
- Not sure what LGBTQ+ labels fit you best (or don’t want to use one at all)
- Going through a rough or confusing time with your sexuality or gender identity
You do not have to be out & wrapped in rainbows - Pride is for YOU too, to celebrate in whatever little way makes you feel best! We see you, you still belong here, and it gets better. 💜
P.S.: if any of the above applies…our TikTok, Youtube, and Get Help page are pretty much made for you. ;)
Really…it’s…okay. Just apologize, move on, and try to get it right next time! 💜

A VERY HAPPY International Non-Binary People’s Day!
Just a lil reminder:
💛 You can present any way you want (masculine, feminine, androgynous, or anywhere in between) and still be non-binary.
🤍 You can use any pronouns you want (they, she, he, etc) and still be non-binary.
💜Your gender is real and valid.
🖤It’s okay to be unsure of your labels or pronouns - there’s no pressure to figure it out right now.
💛No matter where you are on that journey, you deserve respect!
Check out our whole trans/non-binary playlist on TikTok, and know that no matter what part of your journey you’re going through right now, it gets better.
🗣Calling all LGBTQ+ illustrators, storytellers, photographers, videographers, writers, 3D artists, and other creatives!
Shutterstock is on a mission to change how our community is represented in the media. 🏳️🌈
You may remember that poll we sent around, where we asked you how you want to be authentically represented. You said you wanted more depictions of family events, the workplace, and sports. You asked for diversity across different age groups and body types, including trans and non-binary bodies. You want to see content that reflects reality and our every day lives, that doesn’t just rainbow-wash everything.
Based on your feedback, Shutterstock is partnering with us to give grants to LGBTQ+ artists so that our community can keep creating the content we actually want to see, that shows our authentic lives.
