I recently have been coming out in professional contexts in my workplace and have never been the person who wears a lot of pride merch. I've worn ally symbols often, but not as a central point.
I recently attended my first Pride event and I got a free wristband that I've been wearing every day since. I was thinking I would put it away after June, but this made me tear up. I think this should be something I sincerely incorporate into my self presentation so that others who need the safety know they can count on me for it.
