The internet is f*cked up rn and so are our real world spaces. Being LGBTQ+ unfortunately often means constantly assessing risk in daily tasks.
Having to calculate whether a space is safe before you walk into it or wondering if honesty will cost you family, housing, friendships, or opportunities is a horrible feeling. Like we are out here just trying to buy groceries and pay bills, cut us a break.
We know how this feels, so we are always pushing for businesses to make inclusivity intentional in their marketing strategy. If the LGBTQ+ community is welcome in your space, say it. Put up a sign, a sticker, a t-shirt!
You shouldn’t underestimate the importance of making it clear that people are welcome and respected at your establishment. You can use your website, social media, policies, staff culture, reviews, and reputation to communicate your values before a customer ever interacts with you.
The LGBTQ+ Community notices when inclusivity is intentional and appreciate the effort 💜
