On "What does Pride mean to you?" from Kodax Bear:

"When I sit down with the question what does pride mean to you?
This bear is left with so many questions in their head, they don't Know were to start.

But if I was to find a starting point it would have to be a point of were we can as a whole reflection on the year prior and then so far as the current year is going, to be reminded that we have works still to do and have to push back against those who still hate us in this current world,

On the personal scale for me, I get to see the community come whole hartley together and be the biggest badest bear puppy I can be and show off so others can feel confident and show there true selfs toos,

I get to celebrate with my pack, my extended pack, and kink and leather family, meet others and connect in a world that some times feels shut out."

On "What does Pride mean to you?", from Pup Tuukka:

"Pride has to do with loving both community and yourself. It means wakin’ up and not caring how others perceive you. It means gloating about your friends and being happy to be your truest self. Everybody deserves pride in their life."

On "What does Pride mean to you?", from CJ:

"Pride means having the freedom to be myself, to be allowed to freely explore my desires while being with someone I love. Pride is celebrating my existence and right to live in this world as I am."

This Pride month, we're asking our members: "What does Pride mean to you?". Tune in to hear what they have to say, and give us your own answer in the comments! Our first spotlight, our Northstar Puppy of 2024 and rambunctious runt Yakum had this to say...

"Pride means to me:

Dignity, of who I am a TransMan, Sober, Poly, Kinky, Puppy!

Honor, the history of my local community movements, legends and leaders and take the opportunity to learn and share history here at home!

Pleasure, enjoying my legal or supported freedoms I have gratitude for either of the government or of the space that my community provides me as a Transgender person celebrate being alive with love, and not fear even if it's just for a weekend!" 🏳️‍⚧️🐶💕
