Mental Health needs TLC: PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ

My whole world came falling down in silence and there was no one there to help cushion the fall.   We walk the streets of London on our way to work every morning. We either wait at the bus stop or we queue to enter the tube. As we stand there, we stand amongst our fellow Londoners. Some dressed in suits ready for work in the city and others in their uniforms. We stand in silence as we await our destination, holding the railings or sitting down,our eyes firmly on the ground. Do you stop to think what might go on in the lives of those that surround you on your daily morning routine ? I sit there and I look at every single person and I try to imagine what their lives might be like. By the expression people carry, nine times out of ten you can tell if they are in muddy waters. I sit...

Gay Mormon tells the whole world he is happily married to a straight woman.” Sure, Jan!”

He felt the urge to let the world know that despite him being gay, he is in a happy marriage with a straight woman. Our today’s “fun fact” is proudly “sponsored” by the New York Post, that has published this young man’s confession. The 25-year-old said: named Skyler “That sexual attraction came from, I mean, trial-and-error and a lot of practice. We have our struggles of course, like every marriage, but me being gay hasn’t been … the biggest issue in our marriage. It’s been communication, normal marriage things.” A “mixed orientation marriage”? Apparently Skyler got asked many times what he meant, and he managed to get a lot of attention over twitter with this tweet: https://twitter.com/_skyler_austin_/status/1264975666778275841 Of course, such a message gets a lot of attention on soc...

Left-wing MPs troll Andrzej Duda the homophobe at his swearing creating a rainbow with their outfits.

The fight for LGBT+ Rights in Poland is something that must be carried on, and these MP’s from the left-wing have found a great way to troll the re-confirmed president to Poland. As anticipated, unfortunately Andrzej Duda was re-elected president of Poland last month:in  his campaign he lashed out at same-sex marriage and promised to ban same-sex couples from adopting children, comparing homosexuality to devil’s plans. With his re-election, LGBT+ rights (or whatever the LGBT+ communities in Poland reached) were smashed and completely cancelled. With the LGBT+ Polish population under attack, some activists still try to fight against this huge wave of homophobia, and some of the left-wing MPs decided to show their support to the LGBT+ community wearing colourful outfits and creating a rain...

Edinburgh asks Krakow to defend LGBT+ Rights

After Krakow joined the LGBT+ Free Zones, the Mayor of Edinburgh asked their counterpart in Poland to rethink their position and oppose to homophobia by defending LGBT+ rights. As reported by the Edinburgh Evening News, the Lord Provost of Edinburgh, Frank Ross, has written to the Mayor of Krakow - Jacek Majchrowski -  and has asked him to clarify the Polish city’s opposition to homophobia and LGBT+ oppression. Since 1994 the two cities are twinned by a civic partnership agreement, and cooperate in many areas including culture, heritage, monument protection and education. This same partnership has been renewed last year, but after Krakow decided to join the “LGBT+ Free Zones”, the Mayor of Edinburgh is urging them to rethink their position. Twinned towns can obtain EU grants of up to €1...

“I lost my job because of the LGBT+ Mafia”, says the teacher that used to misngender a trans boy.

He was already fired from another school for calling Muhammad a “false prophet”. The Oxford Mail reports the happening: Joshua Sutcliffe - this is the name of the teacher - got fired from Cherwell School in Oxford back in November 2017 for repeatedly misgendering a trans boy. He said his christian faith and beliefs could not allow him to accept the gender theory. After he was sacked, he wrote a letter to the school saying: “As a Christian, I do not share your belief in the ideology of transgenderism. I do not believe that young children should be encouraged to self-select a ‘gender’ which may be different from their biological sex; or that everyone at school should adjust their behaviour to accommodate such a ‘transition’; or that people should be punished for lack of enthusiasm about it...

Jewish revolution: B’nai Mitzvah a Gender Neutral coming-of-age celebration.

This gay 13 year-old, together with a cool Rabbi, decided to have a gender neutral coming-of-age ceremony instead of the usual Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah. It is well known that Judaism celebrates their young members when they get to the “age of maturity”, when they can be counted as active part of the community, almost a religious-adult age. In this cases, when you are boy you celebrate your Bar Mitzvah, when a girl you have instead your Bat Mitzvah, and celebrations see your entire family and all your friends having a party with you. We are in Massachusetts and as The Guardian reports, Ruby Marx did not feel right having a tradition coming-of-age ceremony and decided she wanted to “something in the middle”. She said: “Judaism is a big part of my family – we keep kosher and my older si...
