Here's your weekly food for thought through a Fun Fact or Quiz.
Did you know that “The Invisible Orientation: An Introduction to Asexuality” (2015) by Julie Sondra Decker is considered a landmark book within the asexual (ace) community? Written by a community member, it offers a deep exploration of asexuality, debunking myths, sharing personal stories, and highlighting its social impact. Although, relatively new to the queer and trans space, the ace community is well-knit and deeply involved in human rights activism. To spotlight the community’s thriving presence, the ace pride flag was designed in 2010. Created by a member of AVEN (Asexual Visibility and Education Network) Zinnia Jones, the flag features four stripes representing asexuality, greysexuality/demisexuality, sexuality, and community. This flag has become a powerful and widely recognized symbol of ace identity and pride.

Curious Cat:
Why is International Pronouns Day important, and how does respecting pronouns support the LGBTQIA+ community, especially trans individuals?
Answer:
Sharing and respecting pronouns is important because pronouns allow people to express their gender identity the deeply felt sense of being male, female, both, neither, or somewhere else on the gender spectrum. When we ask for and use someone’s correct pronouns (like he/him, she/her, they/them), we show respect for who they truly are and create a welcoming, inclusive environment.
For trans people those whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth being misgendered (called by the wrong pronouns) can be very hurtful. It can make them feel unseen, disrespected, or invalidated. This emotional harm can lead to increased feelings of anxiety, depression, and isolation. Using correct pronouns helps affirm their identity, supports their mental well-being, and fosters a safer, more accepting community for everyone.
To that end, International Pronouns Day celebrated on the third Wednesday of October, is dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of pronouns, encouraging people to share and respect them as a simple but powerful way to show inclusion and respect for all gender identities.
