small steps…

good-to-know-this..

The story was completely told by the media.
Seems to me that they had some kind of a penalty for the marriage mark in their IDs, or something -
That is great, it is a small step for Russia. But the public opinion of homosexuality in russia must improve

Russia is a failed state and dictatorship (don't worry the USA and UK are only a few years behind), but these two men are true heroes. :love:
-
but there is still so much intolerance in russia now..it is still a former communist afer all
To be fair, China and Viet Nam were also communist country, but LGBT people there are able to live quite peacefully thanks to the lack of the religious nutjobs

:cheers: those are great news!

Excellent news. :love:

Though a surprising decision, I don't think it matters much. Russian public opinion and their lawmakers are strongly opposed to LGBTI people. Just like in Poland and increasingly Hungary, gay-bashing is a great way to entertain general public, while allowing the political class to preserve the status quo. The same pattern can be seen in a number of western countries too, the topic may just be different - Brexit/EU in the UK, immigration in Italy, France, the US etc. Why expect your politicians to solve actual problems when you can just as well be entertained by ideological fog?

I hope this really changes Russia for the better.

Of course it will change Russia. Especially now that the Russian people have overwhelmingly voted in a referendum to grant Putin the power to remain president until 2036. Very encouraging news indeed for gay and straight people both in Russia and elsewhere. :blownose:

Russian men are really hot, and I'm really glad that this happened.
