Thank you for sending in this ask. Our first and foremost goal is to make sure everyone is represented and respected. While we use the word “queer” in in our acronym and posts, we heard from several followers that they found the word hurtful and triggering. Because of this, we started tagging posts with this word as “q-slur” in case anyone in the community might wish to avoid the word. However, we want you to know that we respect your identity. We’ve taken your concern into consideration, and are now going to tag posts containing this word as “queer” instead of as “q-slur” to avoid further confusion and hurt. Thank you for trusting us with this comment, and we hope that you continue to find YA Pride a safe and inclusive space. Best!

Thank you.
