October 11 is International Day of the Girl Child, On this day we should honor the girls we love, and remember the struggles that girls face, like bullying, body image issues, hunger, poverty, neglect, abuse, and sexual assault.

I can feel it. We’re building something big here. People are showing pride in themselves, and our orientation. MAPs are taking care of their own. People are organizing, educating others.

I had the pleasure of meeting a fellow MAP through video chat yesterday. This person is someone I’ve talked with for a few years online. I’ve always gotten good vibes from them, and we’ve become rather close recently. It was a fun chat and it was cool to be able to put a face to
I joined the MAP community as a young, naive, teen. I was hopelessly in love with little girls and the prospect of a lifetime of loneliness seemed inevitable and devastating.
