While homosexulaity was taken out of the DSM, many therapists still believed that there was something wrong with being gay, lesbian or bisexual. I grew up in a time that being LGBTQ was a thing of shame and an object of hatred. I jumped off my bike and was motionless for a moment. I shouted out, “The White House is lit up like a gay pride flag!” I decided that I had to see it in person, so I rode my bike to the White House, arriving at 12:30 am. The White House was bathed in the six colors of the gay pride flag. It was late, almost midnight, and I quickly checked Facebook and saw what seemed unbelievable. I was at dinner with some friends and things were winding down. July 27th, 2015 It was the night of the Supreme Court decision on marriage equality.
