February 1st to February 28th is a month dedicated to understanding the journey the LGBT community have been through.

But as time is developing we are seeing more and more rights given to the LGBT community. As people are getting more educated and are learning about the wider world and exploring different views society is becoming more accepting of this once marginalized group of people.
Discrimination in any form is not acceptable and as individuals are educated they learn that accepting peoples sexual identities and sexual preferences is a part of life.
