I love quotes. Some of them are inspiring, some are sad, and some are happy. Here’s 10 of what I think are the best LGBTQ+ quotes.
1. “It’s okay. It may not seem like it right now, but you are going to be fine. I know it’s scary, but don’t be afraid. You are who you are, and you should love that person, and I don’t want anyone to have to go through 22 years of their life afraid to accept that.“
2. “My parents taught me never to judge others based on whom they love, what color their skin is, or their religion. Why make life miserable for someone when you could be using your energy for good? We don’t need to share the same opinions as others, but we need to be respectful. When you hear people making hateful comments, stand up to them. Point out what a waste it is to hate, and you could open their eyes.“
3. “Being transgender, like being gay, tall, short, white, black, male, or female, is another part of the human condition that makes each individual unique, and something over which we have no control. We are who we are in the deepest recesses of our minds, hearts and identities.”
4. “The most radical thing that any of us can do is to stop projecting our beliefs about gender onto other people’s behaviors and bodies.”
– Julia Serano, Whipping Girl: A Transsexual Woman on Sexism and the Scapegoating of Femininity
5. “Women are women regardless of sex and men are men in the same respects. You can be both or a mix of the two or you can be neither if that’s what suits you. But, people are people no matter their parts, because what really matters is what’s in our hearts.”
– Unknown
6. “The beauty of standing up for your rights is that others will see you standing and stand up as well.”
7. “Love doesn’t discriminate and nor should the law. Not in this country, not in this world, not in this lifetime.”
– Liz Kessler, Read Me Like a Book
8. “When all Americans are treated equal, no matter who they are or whom they love, we are all more free.”
9. “Being gay is natural. Hating gay is a lifestyle choice.”
10. “I hate the word homophobia. It’s not a phobia. You’re not scared. You are an asshole.”
