5 Of Our Favorite 'It Gets Better' Videos
In honor of MTV’s second It Gets Better special, airing tonight on MTV and Logo at 11pm/10c (just a couple of days before national Coming Out day), we thought we’d share some of our favorite submissions from the very important video project reminding kids of all shapes and sizes; all genders and sexual orientations; all heritages and races – that life, in fact, does get better!
Janet Mock: Aside from being a personal friend of ours (We love you, Janet!), Ms. Mock is a true inspiration to all. Her story of growing up transgendered in Hawaii will leave your heart warm and your eyes wet!
Stephen Colbert: What’s great about funny man, Colbert, is that he doesn’t just remind us that it gets better. He offers a meaningful anecdote about how to take back power in compromising situations and make things better right away.
Pandora Boxx: "You are fabulous, you are wonderful and we need you!" We couldn’t have said it better ourselves, Pandora!
Dan Savage and his partner, Terry: Duh! These are the guys that started it all. Mazel Tov, boys!
Christine Quinn: What is a better reminder of how good things can get than an openly gay woman being elected City Council Speaker in one of the largest, most public cities in the world?
