National Coming Out Day 2020
Source: Awareness Days Today's National Coming Out Day, and I just wanted to write a brief post on the matter. It's a day to celebrate those who've come out in the LGBTQ community, as well as those who aren't out yet, but still show support for those who do. Coming out isn't an easy feat, …
