The president of our club and one of our main teachers of new people is an amazing guy. We'll be at Kitsap Pridefest this year again! Last year was our first, and he was so supportive about us going that he volunteered to pay for it, if the club didn't agree with a vote. Of course, they absolutely did agree, with enthusiasm. Before pride he seemed a little nervous and asked how we can tell what pronouns to use for people, and how to know when to ask. (He'd seen me (Vic) ask some new people what their pronouns were.) I told him to just ask everyone when you get their name, and that no one would think it was rude- and the look of relief on his face ya'll. I have never seen a more relaxing deflation of a man in my life. The stress leaving his body was visible to the naked eye. Amazing.
