I think this was well-intentioned but it missed the mark on a good number of the stories. There were some I teared up at and some I didn't quite "get" and some that I got angry about. It was full of very stereotypical stories and written by mostly straight people and I think that it could've been better if the majority of the artists had been part of the LGBTQ+ community. It was a lot of what we see in the media about LGBTQ+ folk - mostly white gay men with a few white lesbian women, coming out stories, abusive families, deaths and tragedy, and attempts at hope that people can change. I think it could've been much better if more LGBTQ+ voices had been involved.
