Internationla Day against Homophia and Transphobia

Today we mark the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia to raise awareness about LGBT rights: too much prejudice still persists and many people across the globe still suffer because of it; from frowning and misunderstanding at workplace to blatant attacks and physical violence, in many African countries even death penalty. Stop it now and embrace diversity and mutual respect!
