This is one of the most adorable Pride posts I’ve ever seen

What I love about the imagery of the turtle is that it’s sending the message that they are protecting themselves by being in their shell. It’s not about deceiving straight people (like we are often told), but about the turtle’s own safety. They’ll come out when the time is right and they feel comfortable. ️‍

I don’t quite know how to adapt ”You Can’t Make a Turtle Come Out” to fit this scenario, but perhaps someone else can
