Caracas, Sep 25 (EFE).- Activists, human rights defenders and members of the LGBTQ+ community protested on Saturday against what was described as "discrimination" faced by two young people the previous night at a karaoke pizzeria in Caracas."I have just experienced an act of discrimination. At #VeraPizza in Chacao, they just told me that I can't dance with my boyfriend because it's a family environment ... Why, according to them, it's a disgusting act," Danny Toro tweeted. (Camera: IVAN CARDENAS). SHOT LIST: HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS PROTEST AGAINST THE DISCRIMINATION SUFFERED BY MEMBERS OF LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY AT A PIZZA PLACE IN CARACAS, VENEZUELA. SOUND BITES: DANNY TORO, ONE OF THE PROTESTERS (IN SPANISH). TRANSLATIONS: We cannot remain silent because events like the one that happened yesterday cannot remain as something that just happened. That is why we decided to come here with some kind of protest, of vindication, to seek that acts like those of yesterday do not happen again, not here nor anywhere else in Venezuela. That´s what we want.
A very rare story unfolded in the British county of Kent last weekend. A couple renewed their wedding vows in Ospringe on Thursday, but this time as wife and wife. While nothing about this story appears surprising at first glance Kristiana and Denise Taylor married first in 1996, when Kristiana was still a man named Stephen. Denise and Kristiana, who was then named Stephen, married as husband and wife in Newcastle and lived together this way for 16 years. Stephan even fathered a son with Denise, whom the couple also named Stephen, until the Stephan Senior transitioned in 2012. Denise supported the change and the rest is history. The two first got together in Newcastle in 1996 when Kristiana was a man. Later, Kristiana would go on to decide that she wanted to transition to being a woman, and her wife Denise supported the decision. The couple renewed their vows after all stages of the transition operation were finished. The couple's son, Stephen, walked the two down the aisle, with friends and family coming together to celebrate the pair's happiness in their new life.
