“To young people, I want to tell you, no matter what anyone tells you, you are loved and cared for and you’re not a mistake,” said 78-year-old Rev. Troy Perry of the Metropolitan Community Church. ❤️
Jalen Bell-Syftestad, a youth-focused ally-activist and one of Perry’s parishioners, follows: “It’s always important to me that we continue the fight that Troy started… and it’s a fight that’s always going to have to continue because there will always be people against us.” 🌈
For #LGBTQHistoryMonth we brought five pioneers from the Los Angeles #LGBTQ+ scene together with five young #activists. The results (and pictures) were amazing! For the full story, click here!

Time to d-d-d-drop some knowledge about LGBTQ+ terms!
Today’s term is non-binary: A person whose gender identity does not conform to the gender binary, which is the erroneous idea that only two distinct and opposite genders exist (man and woman). In reality, many genders exist, and have existed throughout history! Some nonbinary people identify with more than one gender, while others don’t identify with any.
The important thing: there are many ways to be nonbinary, and everyone’s experience with gender is different.

My dear lgbt+ kid,
I kept this message in my drafts for a long time because it’s so kind - and also because it reminds me that I am doing my best to support people.
I tend to feel guilty for not doing more, for just writing silly little letters on tumblr. Your message really provides a different perspective: I took time to make a whole blog just to share love and comfort! Yay, me!
Seriously, thankyou <3
With all my love,
Your Tumblr Dad
