Gender-nonconformity is getting more and more attention as our societies develop. It’s a common theme with the LGBTQIA+ community, but isn’t this something that happens when we’re younger? Not always!

A lot of us have been there: you’re going about your day and suddenly someone says something. It usually hits like an emotional bomb at first before our ears fully process what we’ve heard. Prejudiced comments are unfortunately still a part of our environment.

If you’re part of the LGBTQIA+ community, you can point in any direction and likely find someone who’s experienced prejudice. The prejudices we face while we’re moving from childhood through adolescence are harmful.
