Thousands march in Taipei for gay marriage
Thousands of people from Taiwan’s LGBT community marched through the streets of Taipei on Saturday to demand recognition of same-sex marriage and equal rights. The island’s seventh annual Gay Pride Parade, with an estimated turnout of 25,000, also attracted supporters from neighbouring Hong Kong, Japan and South East Asian countries.
“We urge the government to better protect gay human rights including same-sex unions so we can have the same legal rights as heterosexual couples” said chief organiser Tung Chu-chu.

another photo from the This is Oz campaign! so awesome.
(This Is Oz is an online photo gallery where people can help fight discrimination against Australia’s gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (GLBT) community. Part art project, part human rights campaign, This Is Oz is all about making Australia a place where everyone belongs.)
“Via OutSports, we find out that Australia’s national rugby union team, The Wallabies, have joined forces with gay rugby union club the Sydney Convicts to fight against homophobia. (At left is David Pocock of The Wallabies.)
The campaign - This Is Oz - touts itself as ”celebrating diversity and challenging homophobia,” and uses its online photo gallery to feature athletes (and everyone else!) holding up messages supporting GLBT rights.”
