    I was surprised to see a gay pride in Instanbul Turkey this year on youtube since Turkey is largely an muslim country, (but of course its been secular since 1922) In addition the gay pride there seems to be very large.

    good to see a pride but some of the comments on that vid were less than impressive about attitudes towards this....hopefully time will hlp things to be more accepting.... still good to see though :slight_smile:

    There will be a day when people see gays as equals...I hope I am alive to at least see it in the U.S.

    When I saw the subject line, I thought it meant gay rights for turkeys.
    But, this is good! Though, the video comments....er...

    having visited Istanbul, its an unusual city, hopefully gay rights will advance there.
