Happy IDAHO

Today is IDAHO (International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia). It’s a world wide celebration of our queer identity to mark the day (May 17th) that the World Health Organisation took homosexuality off its list of mental illnesses. Now it’s also an opportunity to protest against same sex relationships being illegal in 75 countries across the world – and a capital crime in seven of them. If you are going to an event and you know where it’s happening, take a whistle and make some noise. If you don’t have any plans yet, check out the website www.idaho.org.uk to find out what’s happening near you.
