WILMETTE, Ill., Oct. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Chrysalis Mama today announced the release of "The Language of LGBTQIA+," a comprehensive guide that offers knowledge and vocabulary on a topic many are unsure how to approach.

"While it is a necessity for parents and allies of LGBTQIA+ adolescents, teens, and young adults to better understand their children and loved ones, it is also ideal for anyone who has ever found themselves feeling lost or clueless in a conversation with an LGBTQIA+ friend or colleague," says Heather Hester, Founder and Creator of Chrysalis Mama and Just Breathe: Parenting Your LGBTQ Teen.

"The Language of LGBTQIA+" is the most complete and detailed guide available. It is based on hundreds of hours of research and talking with actual human beings. Every single one of us knows a person who is a member of the LGBTQIA+ community; what better way to show our allyship?" she said.

Features and benefits of "The Language of LGBTQIA+" include:

• A complete and thorough glossary
• Detailed explanation of more complex words
• A discussion of how to use (and not use!) words and phrases
• Clarifying commonly confused words
• An in-depth exploration of pronouns and gender
