A Call to Men’s Post

We recognise this day at Odyssey House Victoria to help us remember that LGBTQIA+ liberation and inclusion is a recent and ongoing event in history and that the community still faces high levels of discrimination.   Here are some ways you can be an active ally and support for the LGBTQIA+ community:   -Being intolerant of intolerance - call it out if it's inappropriate.   -Respecting pronouns - Not sure which pronouns someone uses? Just ask. Then use that pronoun and encourage others to do so.   -Not assuming someone is or isn't LGBTQIA+ - LGBTQIA+ people don’t all look a certain way, and many may not appear to be part of the community.   -Listen to LGBTQIA+ voices in your workplace and community - Listen with an open mind and heart to the experiences of LGBTQIA+ people. 

It's time we began pushing boundaries to build an environment that's more accepting and loving. An environment where inclusivity feels natural, and isn't looked at as a privilege. It's time we started looking beyond these boundaries to spark conversations, which in turn create real-world impact. Cos closets are for clothes, not for identities.
