5 Inclusive Father’s Day Card Ideas That Celebrate Chosen Family
Father’s Day isn’t one-size-fits-all. For many in the LGBTQ+ community, dad can mean a lot more than a biological parent. It can be a stepdad, a queer parent, a chosen family figure, or simply someone who showed up when it mattered most.
At The Queer Store, we believe greeting cards should reflect real, diverse experiences — across gender, sexuality, race, and family structures. That’s why our Father’s Day collection is created with inclusivity at its core.
Celebrating Father’s Day on the 16th of June, here are five card ideas that celebrate fatherhood in all its beautiful forms:
🗓️ UK/US Father’s Day: 16 June
1. For the Two-Dad Household
💖 Two dads are better than one.
This card is perfect for kids and teenagers (or grown ups!) who want to celebrate both of their dads this Father’s Day.
2. For the Dad Who’s Been an Ally
“Dad, thank you for always being an ally.”
This one’s for the dads who stood by their LGBTQ+ kids with love, pride, and open arms — especially after coming out.
3. For Trans Dads
“Happy Father’s Day” 🏳️⚧️
A soft and powerful design featuring the words “Happy Father’s Day” with the trans flag colours in the background. Because trans dads should be seen and celebrated.
4. For the Schitt’s Creek Fan
🖤 “Warmest regards on Father’s Day”
Featuring a quote from David Rose, the iconic pansexual character from Schitt’s Creek. A stylish and witty nod to queer culture for any dad with excellent TV taste.
5. For Single Dads or Father Figures
Make it stand out
👕 A lumberjack t-shirt design — one small, one big — no people, just possibility. This card is a tribute to any father figure, biological or not. And also a good fit for single dads.
Because Love Makes a Family
At The Queer Store, we’re proud to create greeting cards that reflect the full spectrum of family and identity. Whether it’s a gentle dad, a stepdad, two dads, or a father figure who simply showed up, our Father’s Day collection is made with love, humour, and inclusivity.
