The winter olympics are done, but discrimination is continuing.

During the last few weeks, everyone has been talking about Putin's anti-gay law... on tv, on the internet, everywhere! But what about now? The olympics are done, and almost nobody is talking about russian discrimination anymore! Of course, gay themed blogs and websites didn't forget all this horrible worry and every LGBT person didn't either... but what about "common" people? I'm talking about every straight guy or woman, every straight father/mother, I'm talking about children, about yuong and old people, busy workers and all that kind of people who have known about anti-gay laws just because everytime they turned their tv on, someone was talking about it. It wasn't just a problem for gays, it was a problem for every single human. But now this isn't a hot topic anymore, so journalists "forgot" it, and all this crazy situation is becoming just a "worry concerning gay people", like almost any other news about discriminations againts the LGBT community.

I don't want to forget. People are suffering over there, just because they want to be themselves.

Take a look at this interesting video I found on YouTube, it's very well made:







But most of all, talk about it with other people. I know, that's not so much, but at least it's better than nothing.

This is who I am

Hello everyone, and welcome to my blog (will anyone ever read it? ahahah).
Well, I don't even know where to begin... let's just say that I am an Italian boy, born in 1993. And yep, I'm gay.
I'm studying at university, and I have a wonderful boyfriend. Yeah, I'm that kind of romantic guy who always used to dream about true love... until I finally found it. And we've been togheter for more than two years by now!
What about my homosexuality? At the moment, all of my friends know I'm gay, but I'm not out to the whole world: I usually don't come out to people I barely know, or to people I don't care about. I came out to my parents more than one year ago: my mother is completly fine with it, but with my father... well, I'll just say that he wasn't ok with it, at all (I may talk about it in a future post).
I don't wanna talk about me too much... I prefer describing myself trough my posts during the time, little by little.
But finally, why did I make this blog? Actually, I don't even know why... I just felt I needed a space where i could let my thoughts free, far from the "real world" (yeah, I know, I doesn't make so much sense) and, who knows, discuss about anything with other people from around the world.
Even if just one person will stop here and find my future posts a little interesting, I'll be enormously happy about it.

Take care,

G.
