U.S. Surgeon General on Twitter: "Also, though I’m not opposed to a little snark myself, the latter part of your educating response might have discouraged other well meaning folks from continuing to engage on the topic in the future- thus defeating the purpose. Twitter can be tough, and kindness usually wins!… https://t.co/it0QDBI6fw"

Unless you’re wondering about someone’s “sexual preference” ie the method by which someone chooses to engage in sexual pleasure, please use “sexual orientation.” The @NIH and @AmerMedicalAssn manage to use this language, I’m sure Dr. @JeromeAdamsMD can manage as well. #Pride2019https://twitter.com/Surgeon_General/status/1145457766561144832 …

I’ve often said I’m not the SG for one group, but for everyone regardless of race, sex, or sexual preference. On #WorldPride day, lets celebrate the advances we’ve made in LGBTQ health, and commit to doing more to eliminate health disparities/ establishing health equity for ALL. pic.twitter.com/8wdkqxRqnv
