For anyone in the LGBTQ+ community that needs to hear this.
You are all valid human beings. No matter what society and close minded people in this world say, who you are is 100% valid. No matter who you love, the way you express love and attraction, if you don’t feel romantic or sexual attraction at all, what your pronouns are and who you know you are deep inside. You are a valid person and human being that is worthy of respect and the right to be whoever you want to be. You matter so much in this world, in this life and in the universe in general just because you exist and you’re alive at this very moment. I’ll admit that I’m not gay and I’m cisgendered so I could never fully understand what you all go through in your lives and the oppression you face every single day by my own experiences. Plus you shouldn’t have to go through those things at all! No one deserves to feel like who they are is wrong or feel like they’ll be attacked or killed for being who they are! I believe that you, your sexuality and your identity are valid and that they deserve respect, to be represented and to be talked about in general. So please hang in there I know that life can be extremely difficult and overwhelming. But I promise you things will get better and there’s so many wonderful experiences and people that you have yet to see and meet. So keep going and please know that there’s nothing wrong with who you are. :) -Vannessa
