snoop1130 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 BANGKOK (NNT) - Thousands of LGBTQ+ people, their allies and political leaders marched through central Bangkok on Sunday to mark Pride month and promote gender equality in the second official Pride parade to be held in the country. Bangkok Governor Chadchart Sittipunt said over 50,000 people joined this year’s Pride parade, more than double the attendance of last year’s event. Political figures joining the parade included Pita Limjaroenrat, leader of the Move Forward Party (MFP), which is pushing to lead a coalition after winning the most seats in the May 14 general election. Pita, who attended Sunday’s parade, told reporters that his party, once formed, "will support Marriage Equality (Act), Gender Identity (Act) and several others, including welfare." The coalition, which consisted of eight political parties, has made a joint pledge to pass laws, including the Marriage Equality Act, to ensure equal rights for all couples regardless of gender. Thailand has one of Asia’s most open LGBTQ+ communities, but some political activists say laws and traditional institutions have yet to reflect changing social attitudes and still discriminate against LGBTQ+ people and same-sex couples.

Stargeezr Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 There is one day for Mothers day, One day for Fathers day, one day for Veteran day, one day for Queen Victoria day. July 1st for Canada day, July 4th for America's day, one day for Christmas and one day for New Years day, so why does the Pride community get a whole month? Why not Pride day? Just asking.

Heterosexuals are the majority and don't need to campaign for equal rights (any more). 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it is not a month of government holidays. Maybe one of those would be good too though. Maybe there should be a national bigots day so you can have a parade too. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're so fabulous it takes a month to celebrate us rather than just a day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
