The LGBTQ community continues to grow in Bucharest. Meanwhile, CSDs are also celebrated here. At this year's event, however, more people came than were actually allowed (due to the applicable Corona requirements). The consequence: the responsible persons are now charged with a fine. This amounts to a little more than 1,400 euros. The CSD 2021 and its counter protests As part of the CSD 2021 in Bucharest, many people came out onto the streets of the city. However, not all of them were about speaking out for more tolerance and for queer rights. Among other things, there were also counter-demonstrations that promoted "more normality". Among others, according to the news portal g4media.ro, the supporters of a national, radical right-wing party were behind these. The extent to which they were bothered by the community was evident from many signs and statements. It became much more colorful a few hours later, when the actual Pride s...

Admittedly, sometimes they simply cannot be prevented. Wrinkles are perceived by many men as very disturbing. Thank goodness, however, there are a few tricks with the help of which it is sometimes possible to trick nature a little here. If you know what triggers wrinkles or can make them worse, you have a good basis for preventing them. But what does this actually mean exactly? How can it be possible to declare war on these "signs of aging"? The following tricks are at least worth a try. And even if wrinkles may not be able to be delayed until retirement age, it can at least do the psyche good to learn to love these details about yourself (or your partner). Tip No. 1: Use sunscreen Sun dries out the skin and dried-out skin ages faster. Therefore, it is all the more important to help out accordingly and to supply the "largest organ" with moisture. Passionate sunbathers in particular should ...

Now it's official, because the fight for victory in the Promi Big Brother house is over for Rafi Rachek. Whether he was able to collect sympathy points during his stay is questionable. Likewise, it remains to be seen how he will react when he - with a little distance - looks at the scenes of the past days. What is certain, however, is that the ex-"Bachelorette" and "Bachelor in Paradise" contestant did not manage to collect enough viewer votes for himself. Rafi's exit is therefore now "Exit No. 4". Previously, Daniel (voluntarily due to health problems, Heike and Mimi (the latter also voluntarily) left. The first nomination 2021 On Saturday evening it became serious. Because: the first nomination of the residents of the PBB container or the "space station" was pending. The viewer was thus taken part of the decision. Because: five residents were allowed to determine who they put on the "hit list". The task of Daniela Büchner, Melanie Müller, Ina Ao...

Chances of marriage for all in Switzerland are good It is getting exciting: It could well be that marriage for all in Switzerland does not have to remain a pipe dream. There are now forecasts that indicate that more than half of those eligible to vote could say "yes". However, it will still take some time before the final decision is made. The vote will not take place until September 26, 2021. On that day, the Swiss will be polled. Initial forecasts look good Those who would like to see marriage for all in Switzerland should breathe a sigh of relief when they look at the initial forecasts. Because: it is becoming apparent that more than half would vote "yes". The corresponding figures come from the scientist Claude Longchamp, who has analyzed them further on his website. Longchamp refers to a method known as the "Stellus model", which has already been used frequently in the past as a basis for...

In the age of social media and the like, Instagram in particular is often used to openly admit to oneself. Among other things, many artists also decide to come out in this way and get in touch with their fans. It almost seems as if a true "outing wave" has been rolling since 2020 at the latest. More and more celebrities dare to be open about themselves and are often celebrated for this in the comment columns. But which transgender outings or which artists in general are actually particularly stuck in people's minds? Even though every outing is individual, the following stars have left their mark on the scene. Outing No. 1: Elliot Page

Elliot Page may be known to many through the movie "Juno". The star decided to come out as transgender some time ago and now calls himself "E...

That it would not remain as harmonious on Promi Big Brother as it was on the day of the move-in was actually clear, as was Rafi. That the situation would escalate so quickly, however, could perhaps not really be foreseen. One thing is certain: The first tangible dispute has gone over the (TV) stage. In the middle of it all: Rafi Rachek, who has been dividing the viewer community ever since. His behavior is somewhat reminiscent of when he jumped into the boxing ring of the "Promiboxen" event a few weeks ago to stand by his Sam. In the current situation in the space capsule of the reality TV format, he also feels 100 percent in the right. Emotions are boiling over. On the social networks, however, there is already talk that he may have catapulted himself into oblivion with his action. But what actually happened? Rafi's conspiracy theory The stumbling block is quickly explained: For a few days now, Rafi has not tired of emphasizing that he knows that ...

In a few weeks, the time will finally come: in Switzerland, the vote on marriage for all is coming up. One aspect that could possibly play an important role in this context is that various musicians have now joined forces to write a song on the subject. Their goal: they want to achieve that as many people as possible vote "yes" so that queer couples are allowed to marry in Switzerland. "Just" one of many actions? Maybe. Nevertheless, the possible consequences of the action should not be underestimated. Because: the song relies not only on prominent participation, but also on a somewhat unconventional approach. However, it could reach the (still) undecided more than, for example, flyers. Who is behind "Yes, I do"? "Ja, ich will" is the product of several Swiss artists who have made it their goal to promote the queer community in ...

CSD to be responsible - according to right-wing party in Israel - for rising corona numbers in the country A look at the statistics shows: Corona cases are unfortunately on the rise again in Israel as well. The chairman of the Religious Zionist Party Bezalel Smotrich has an explanation for this, which meets with criticism from many people. He blames the CSD, which took place in Tel Aviv a few weeks ago, for the current developments. This is not the first time that the politician has attracted attention with such statements. Literally, he speaks of "improper behavior" in connection with Christopher Street Day. Discussions around Prides at Corona times - not only an issue in Israel In Germany, too, shortly after Pride in Berlin, there were heated discussions about which occasions it is allowed to demonstrate and which it is not. According to reports, even in the German capital, distance rules and the like were often not observed. Exactly that then called...
