During Pride Month—and every month—we believe that everyone has the right to move freely, safely, and without fear.
We’re dedicated to supporting our community in living an open and authentic life, loving whomever and however they want, and feeling empowered to speak their truth.

Feeling that people value me for being exactly who I am gave me the strength that I need to go through the daily challenges of being a transgender person. Uber taught me that it’s only by knowing and listening to people with different experiences and backgrounds that it is possible to set the world in motion.

Uber’s mission is to make movement happen at the tap of a button. This movement gets amplified when we are inclusive, and #MoveWithPride is exactly that—reducing barriers and giving a part of the community a chance to be well represented.

I have never felt the need to hide myself at work—everyone has been so welcoming, and no one assumes anyone else’s sexuality, which I really appreciate.

Pride comes in all colors
We’re proud to help shine a spotlight on the flags, sexual orientations, and gender identities that represent some of the colors across the LGBTQIA+ community. *

Genderqueer
Genderqueer people typically reject notions of static categories of gender and embrace a fluidity of gender identity and, often, though not always, sexual orientation. People who identify as genderqueer may see themselves as being both male and female, being neither male nor female, or falling completely outside these categories.
Intersex

Lesbian
A woman who is emotionally, romantically, or sexually attracted to other women.
Non-binary
An adjective describing a person who doesn’t identify exclusively as a man or a woman. Non-binary people may identify as being both a man and a woman, being somewhere in between, or falling completely outside these categories. While many also identify as transgender, not all non-binary people do.

Polysexual

Queer
A term people often use to express fluid identities and orientations. Often used interchangeably with "LGBTQ."
Transgender
An umbrella term for people whose gender identity and/or expression is different from cultural expectations based on the sex they were assigned at birth. Being transgender doesn’t imply any specific sexual orientation. Therefore, transgender people may identify as straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual, etc.
