Christopher Street Day in Berlin
I was delighted to be one of the spectators of this event. Its really once in a lifetime for Filipinos like me. I am fascinated how the gays, lesbians, transgenders and bisexual go out in the street to party and proudly show that they do exist in this community. They should be treated equally I think.
According to the internet, the CSD is held in memory of the first big uprising of homosexuals against police assaults in Greenwich Village (New York, USA) on June 27, 1969. The so-called Stonewall Riots took place in the bar Stonewall Inn. The first German CSDs took place in Bremen and Berlin in 1979.
Here are some of the photos taken during the event. Have fun.
And lastly, vivapinay with beautiful ladies.
This is my entry for Mellow Yellow Monday, Blue Monday, Ruby Tuesday and My World Tuesday.

Thirty-three years in which the Community has been developing its diversity and its political aims. But discrimination towards gays, lesbians, transgenders and bisexuals still exists.
