It’s April 25th, so I just wanted to make a quick post to celebrate. I’m not really the best person to go over the history of this day, how it came about, or what it means to the MAP community today, but I wish everyone a safe, happy, and healthy day where they can feel a bit more connected with everyone and (just maybe) feel a bit of pride in having survived in a society that mistreats us.

If anyone knows about or can point to some resources that discuss Alice Day, feel free to post it!

      From my understanding, it’s a generally MAP-positive holiday that was founded to celebrate the life of Alice Liddell (the inspiration for “Alice in Wonderland”) and the bond between her and Lewis Carroll. I believe there’s more to it overall, but I’ve always tended to simply celebrate the day as a symbol of connection between MAPs and our workings to create a more accepting society for us (and all paraphiles).
