“We wish William and Kate every happiness. May they have a joyful

“The royal couple are lucky. They have the option to get married. Gay
couples don’t have this option. They are barred by law from marriage.
“We urge Kate and William to support marriage equality: the right of
same-sex couples to get married. Their support would mean a lot. They
take for granted the right to marry. Marriage is something that many

发帖数: 19713 | 3 Some of Whitney Houston's friends, including gay rights activist Peter
Tatchell have said that the singer took to drugs and drinks because she was
hiding her true sexuality.
Tatchell even insisted her marriage to Bobby Brown was a smokescreen, and
that she was "only really happy" in the 1980s when she was with a "lesbian
partner".
"It's important to tell the truth about this aspect of her life," the Daily
Star quoted him as saying.
Although the Britain-based Tatchell didn't say who the partner w... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 2153 | 4 A United Nations panel’s decision to remove sexual orientation from an anti
-execution resolution is “shameful” and may encourage murders of LGBT
people, gay rights campaigners say.
The body voted this week on the amendment, which was passed 79-70. The vast
majority of countries in support of the change were African or Arabic.
Veteran gay rights activist Peter Tatchell said the move was a “shameful
day in United Nations history” and would give a “de facto green light to

While Britain's Queen Elizabeth II is being hailed as a progressive leader
for signing a new Commonwealth charter that opposes discrimination based on
gender, LGBT activists note that the monarch has never actually uttered the
words 'gay' or 'lesbian.'
Queen Elizabeth II on Sunday backed a new commonwealth charter for the
United Kingdom, which some are saying indicated the monarch's support for
LGBT equality. But as Zack Ford at ... 阅读全帖 |

In a Sunday meeting with U.K. gay rights activists, Conservative Party

5月29日在莫斯科，俄罗斯同性恋者团体的一些人士巧妙避开了警察的干扰，成功
举行了一次街头反歧视游行，尽管这次游行规模很小、时间短暂。
星期六当天，俄罗斯的一些同性恋者反歧视人士和来自欧洲的几位支持者在莫斯科
市一条大街上举行了游行，游行只持续了几分钟时间。参加游行的人数约有30人，其中
包括“国际不再恐同日” （IDAHO）委员会的路易斯-乔治斯-汀（Louis Georges-Tin
）、英国的同性恋者反歧视活动人士彼得-塔切尔（Peter Tatchell）和德国议员沃尔
克-贝克（Volker Beck）。游行者在街上亮出了呼吁同性恋者平等权利的标语和大幅面
彩虹旗。
俄罗斯的同性恋者团体此前已经宣布了在本周六举行游行的计划，但游行申请如往
年一样被卢日科夫为市长的莫斯科市政府拒绝。
游行组织者之一、当地同性恋者反歧视活动人士尼古拉-阿列克谢耶夫对媒体说，
由于市政府禁止同性恋者游行，他们不得不采取了“声东击西的战术”，在几天前故意
公开宣布将在驻莫斯科的欧洲委员会办事处外举行游行集会，但在周六当天又临时改换
地点，使得警察措手不及，在游行结束十分 |

发帖数: 2632 | 11 上周六莫斯科举办了两起同志游行。这是自2006年首次有人试图举办同性恋游行以来，
第一次以零容忍著称的俄罗斯当局没有介入。
活动发言人说，没有烦扰，打击和阻止是因为他们的“军事般严格的计划”而不是因为
当局对非主流行为的热心。
莫斯科防暴警察一般会残忍地驱散集会，市长Yury Luzhkov认为同性恋是魔鬼的言论鼓
励了他们。
活动发言人还谴责了俄罗斯复活正统教。它们公开和苛刻的指责同志文化，煽动恐同论。
大约25名活动者在“the arbat",一条主要的旅游步行街发起了游行，这条街到处是商
店和餐厅。
他们游行了约10分钟，手持条幅，口喊口号“不要歧视性倾向”。一些围观者向他们挥
手和大笑，但他们并没有表现出敌意。
警察没有试图驱散游行，但当示威者们看到一排穿制服的警察拦在他们面前时，队伍散
开了。
几小时以后，莫斯科西北部，更小的，国际组织包括英国活动家Peter Tatchell发开了
一条彩虹旗和条幅“俄罗斯不要恐同！”和“平权，不妥协！”
“今天就象以前的苏联时代：那一些寻求和平示威的人们被警察和安全局的追捕。”
