The world is no longer afraid of the same day (fighting for equality and respect)

International Fear Day, also known as International Anti-Homosexuality Day, is 17 every May, aiming at raising people's awareness and respect for gender identity and sexual orientation diversity, and opposing discrimination and violence against targeted minorities and groups. This day was first founded by the international advocacy organization ILGA (International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) in 2004, and now it has become an important theme day in the world.

Why do you need international homophobia?

Although in many countries and regions, sexual minorities+groups have gradually gained equal legal status and social recognition, in many other countries and regions, sexual minorities+groups still face discrimination and oppression from society, government and law. They may suffer from bullying, exclusion, violence and even persecution at home, school, workplace and social environment, and their rights and freedoms may also be severely restricted. Therefore, the existence of international homophobia aims at fighting for the rights of equality and respect for sexual minorities and groups, and at the same time reminds people of the need to work together to fight for the rights of equality and respect for all.
