LEGO’S MASSIVE FAIL AT CELEBRATG GAY PRI

As a kid, I didn’t know I was gay, but om how people treated me, I knew I was different — and that different wasn’t okay. I told them how exced I was to meet them, and how I didn’t know there were any other gay AFOLs like me around.

I joked that there should be a way for to fd each other… and wouldn’t be cute if we lled each other “gayFOLs”?

It was that day, while standg le, that I got on my phone and created the “GayFOLs” Facebook page thkg would be a great way to meet others like me. It took a few years before GayFOLs found s purpose.

LEGO COM OUT AS GAY

In June 2018, some AFOLs shared Pri MOCs on a popular Facebook page, only to be met by hostily, dismissivens and homophobic vrl. That’s when I remembered my GayFOLs page.

From then on, whenever homophobia raised s head on other pag, we’d wave our flag and say “We have a safe place where you n be who you are, and meet others like you! GayFOLs rhym wh AFOLs.
