Yes. There are a few ways that one can avoid marginalization because of their sexual orientation or gender identity. One way is to build community and feel secure in the identity that one has chosen for themselves. Avoiding homogenous social circles with views that don't align with one’s values is another way to avoid marginalization. Speaking up for other queer or trans people when their rights are violated or when they face discrimination and intolerance is a good way as well. Lastly, actively participating in LGBT+ related organizations, clubs, political campaigns etc, help those affected feel supported while also enabling them to be a positive influence on society.

One way of avoiding being marginalized because of your sexual orientation or gender identity is to stand up for yourself and be proud.
