    The It Gets Better Project asks people to provide their name & e-mail & to take the Pledge, but as we don't provide this sort of information & some of us are still in the closet, then this can be our own personal Pledge :slight_smile:

    Take the pledge and get involved by helping spread our message of hope to LGBT youth: It Gets Better.

    THE PLEDGE: Everyone deserves to be respected for who they are. I pledge to spread this message to my friends, family and neighbors. I'll speak up against hate and intolerance whenever I see it, at school and at work. I'll provide hope for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and other bullied teens by letting them know that it gets better.

    I have been bullied for being gay in my past, now I am happy in an awesome relationship. It honestly does get better.

    I take the pledge. I will try and get in touch with the head of the student council at school, and see if we can arrange an LGBTI awareness and acceptance day

    I take the pledge!

    I don't tolerate bullying, and I stand up to it every time I witness it. No matter if it's based upon LGBT or not. And I want to organize a GSA at my school. I'm here for anyone who needs support. And it does get better.

    I take the pledge, and apply it especially to autistic teens. Whatever our orientation, we tend to be bully-magnets, and we usually don't have a choice to be in the closet about being weird and socially inept.

    Autistic people are misunderstood, being Gay must make it harder!
