National Coming Out Day!

For all our dear friends, family, and community members who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender - I hope this National Coming Out Day finds you living openly and freely in a way that is healthy and happy for you.

Sexual orientation and gender identity are fluid and unique aspects in all of us, and I have always identified as a staunch ally to our LGBT friends & family.  There is NO EVIDENCE in the psychological research over decades that LGBT individuals are any more or less human than all others.
