@WillRobinson not to detract from the beautiful message, but I thought that pride had nothing to do about kids... it was about sexual freedom. That being said bullying and lack of acceptance most certainly can lead to those deaths especially when those around queer kids make them feel less than human.

@LeatherCubAndrew @WillRobinson It’s not about kids it’s just saying pride makes people think it’s more okay to be who they are which leads to fewer deaths
@WillRobinson can attest it works too, as one of the not dead lgbtq kids
@WillRobinson This is on top of just being able to share who they are and be who they are without any consequences.
@WillRobinson I also tend to think Pride is about raising awareness and social acceptability.
