Absolutely. Never hide. And if you have to, just like we all felt the need to move to cities that would accept us and celebrate us, move agencies.

A few know a few don’t. I don’t hide it anymore so depends on the relationship and if they are asking about my weekend.

No.

I work in a political space, so yes. It comes up often. In previous roles, I think if they didn't know it was purposeful ignorance based on how I presented myself.

Happy Pride! Wondering: we have an unique POV in life. Have you used your identity to help land you a gig? How so?

I am an advertising professor studying how people’s identities shape their experiences in advertising. I am interested in interviewing LGBTQ+ folks to learn whether and how your identity shapes your experiences and perspectives on advertising and the work you create and produce. If you’re willing to chat, email me at kwindels at UFL dot edu.

Let’s not have pride this year that is all about rainbow colors. Remember those who have lost their lives during the AIDS crisis, and the years they were ignored by the government and couldn’t get healthcare to save their lives. Same as what is happening today - those who are not privileged don’t have equal resources, or even access to healthcare. That’s why equality should matter for everyone. It’s not just a party, it’s to show that we’re still here and we will not give up.

Does anyone know of a good therapist they could recommend in the LA area? Saw someone post something similar to this in the bowl the other day so I thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask. They don’t have to be LGBTQ+, but it would help if they have some experience in that area.
