Before any woman is a wife, a sister or a mother she is a human being. We ask nothing as women but everything as human beings. - Ida C. Hultin
Note: I took this picture from someone's front yard. What caught my attention was the bright pink flower and also the clay pot & brick next to it. It had its own kind of beauty.

A Concept photot that was supposed to be one half of the concept "Swine Flu VS. Same-Sex Marriage". The whole thing was scrapped, and this is shot that was sadly sacrificed.
Our government is creepy, eh?

Our local Rural Valley in Wenatchee has staged a "Gay Pride' at our local Public Market with music and a rare opportunity for people of like minds regarding sexual identity could feel comfortable.

It was not so long ago that the people you call friend, family and, perhaps, even mother and father were living in two separate worlds based on the color of their skin.
My grandfather was a plantation sharecropper.
My parents attended segregated schools.
And I am married to a wonderful man...who happens to be white.
This equality is transparent to many of us now but it was not too long ago that this reality was nothing more than a dream as impossible as Don Quixote's.
Happy Birthday Martin Luther King, Jr.
And thank you.
This event will bring together activists and comedians to discuss the ways in which comedy can push forward agendas such as #metoo and contemporary women’s rights movements, and how this effort can translate into meaningful change in women’s lives. The event will also showcase the work of UN Women and Mythos Labs in countering violent extremist recruitment narratives—and their understandings of gender—through comedy. It features a comedy set by renown comedian and actress Aparna Nancherla.
In early 2018, UN Women partnered with Mythos Labs to produce a series of comedy videos to counter the messaging of terrorist groups in the Asia region. Working with female comedians in South Asia and South-East Asia, these sketches challenge the narratives used by violent extremist groups and counter extremist ideology in the online space. While this work was originally piloted to prevent and counter violent extremism, the implications go far beyond this realm. Comedy can and is being used to promote broader themes of women’s empowerment and gender equality, by not just making us laugh, but by challenging stereotypes with a broad and engaged audience.
This project is part of UN Women’s Empowered Women, Peaceful Communities programme, which is funded by the Government of Japan. This programme works in the Asia Pacific region to challenge the gendered dynamics of violent extremism and reverse its growing trend, through prioritizing women’s rights, empowerment, participation and leadership—in national decision-making and at the community level.

Taiwan Massive rally in support of marriage equality.
Hundred thousands participate in a music festival to support “marriage equality” on December 10 2016, International Human Rights Day.
The music festival on Ketagalan Boulevard in front of the Presidential Office was one of the biggest gay rights events in Taiwan.
The event, coinciding with Human Rights Day, came amid pressure from some civic groups seeking to push the government on legalization the bill for same-sex marriage.
The organizers invited local and foreign pop music stars including Taiwanese singers Suming Rupi, Dai Ailing. Philippine pop chanteuse Sandee Chan and Hong Kong Canto-pop singer Denise Ho.
Taiwanese lawmakers are currently working on three bills in support of marriage equality, one of which is already listed for review and might be passed within months. Same-sex marriage also has the prominent support of President Tsai Ing-wen, Taiwan's first female president of the Formosa island.
The anti- “marriage equality” camp last Saturday held demonstrations in Northern, Central and Southern Taiwan to protest the same-sex marriage bills, arguing that the draft amendments to the Civil Code were contrary to traditional family values.

admittedly this guy is not wearing heels but he was part of a dancing group that preceded the actual drag queen race. All of the people were really fun because they were all so happy and loved to pose. Only the weather was a drag (pouring rain -saw many malfunctioning slr's), as were the volunteers that made you stand behind an imaginary line although the whole event had not even started ( and was not going to in the next 1 1/2 hours)
Indigenous women’s groups perform a Tlalmanalli opening ceremony to kick off the Generation Equality Forum in Mexico. The ceremony was held at the Complejo Cultural Los Pinos in Mexico City on 29 March 2021.
“Tlalmanali” from the Nahuatl indigenous language, is an “offering to the earth.” a traditional greeting to the four winds, which consists of an altar on the ground that forms a circle surrounded by natural elements, divided into four directions (south, north, east and west). Each symoolizes an element of nature (earth, water, air, fire). It represents the seed fire of inauguration.
The collectives in charge of the ceremony were: Red Autónoma de Médicos Tradicionales y Parteras CDMX y Area Metropolitana, Colectivo de parteria LOG OLAJ ALAXIN SAGRADO NACIMIENTO, and Casa de medicina tradicional Ixchel.
