On Saturday (25 June), thousands of glittery protesters flooded the streets of Poland’s capital for the Equality Parade, the largest queer event in central Europe.
On Saturday (25 June), thousands of glittery protesters flooded the streets of Poland’s capital for the Equality Parade, the largest queer event in central Europe.
Joining them were 300 members and supporters of the embattled KyivPride, who were unable to gather in their own country because of the spectre of war.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has devastated once thriving cities, forced millions to flee and plunged the world into uncertainty – LGBTQ+ people included.
More than 11 LGBTQ+ organisations from across Ukraine joined in the parade. Equality Parade organisers hope to use the joint event to ensure Ukraine’s continued struggle for freedom from the Russian invasion remains in the people’s minds.
KyivPride director Lenny Emson issued a dire warning to Pride-goers before the march – if Ukraine is seized by the Kremlin, the LGBTQ+ community will face untold harm.
“We are grateful to Warsaw Pride … but it is very painful that our city is now under the threat of bombing,” Emson, who came to Poland for the march, told the crowd.
MAN WITH WORLD'S LONGEST COCK
A 52-year-old man has claims he is disabled due to the sheer size of his penis.
Roberto Esquivel Cabrera’s penis is allegedly a whopping 18.9 inches – roughly the same as half a metre in length.
The penis, from Mexico, is thought to be the world’s longest.
The considerable size of his manhood has left him unable to perform jobs, Mr Cabrera says, and he has now been forced to register as disabled.
Mr Cabrera claims his manhood is so massive that he is unable to abide by simple work tasks such as wearing a uniform.
En la antigüedad en China existió una tradición de amor entre hombres conocido como amor masculino o placeres del melocotón mordido, nombre derivado de una leyenda de la dinastía Zhou, hacia el año 500, según la cual su favorito, Mizi Xia ofreció al Duque Ling de Wei un melocotón que había mordido y él consideró este gesto de su amante como un gesto de amor.
En China hay registros de la homosexualidad desde la antigüedad. En las investigaciones de Pan Guangdan (潘光旦) se muestra que casi todos los los emperadores de la dinastía Han tuvieron uno o varios amantes masculinos, generalmene catamitas.
Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo is an American all-male drag ballet corps which parodies the conventions and clichés of romantic and classical ballet.
The dancers portray both male and female roles in a humorous style that combines parodies of ballet, posing and physical comedy with "straighter" pieces intended to show off the performers' technical skills.
Much of the humor is in seeing male dancers en travesti; performing roles usually reserved to females, wearing tutus and dancing en pointe.
