Brussels stands up against the Hungarian government – EC’s LGBTQI Equality Strategy is here

Change language:

The European Commission (EC) created the first-ever LGBTQI Equality Strategy. To Hungarian legislators who currently work on undermining equality, they say that everyone must respect equality and human rights. EC makes clear that LGBTQI questions are a matter of identity and not ideology.

Serious legislative work is being done in connection with the rights of LGBTQI people.

While the Hungarian government seems to do everything in its power to undermine what little rights this community has in Hungary, EC leaders in Brussels are working toward ensuring rights for LGBTQI people across the entire EU.

President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen aims to build a Union of Equality where “you can be who you are and love who you want, without fear of recrimination or discrimination.”

Discrimination against LGBTQI people persists throughout the EU. Statistics show that in 2019, 43% of LGBT people felt discriminated against.

In the EU, several LGBTQI people are scared “to show affection publicly, and be open about their sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and sex characteristics.” With the help of this equality strategy, the EC wants every EU member to “simply be themselves without feeling threatened.”

The equality strategy sets out a series of targeted actions across four pillars:

  1. Tackling discrimination against LGBTQI people
  2. Ensuring LGBTQI people’s safety
  3. Building LGBTQI inclusive societies
  4. Leading the call for LGBTQI equality around the world.

The EC wants to ensure LGBTQI rights in cross-border situations, as well as improve the legal protection for rainbow families in cross-border situations. For example, the EC pushes for mutual recognition of family relations in the EU. If one is a parent in one country, one is a parent in every country.

  1. EU and other lefties should mind their own business. Those LGBTwhatever weirdos can do what they want as long as no-one sees it, and they should NEVER be able to demand that NORMAL and SANE people accept it. Do your weird stuff at home!

  2. Tolerance, acceptance, celebration, and participation, these are the steps taken to induct people into the LGBTQ+ lifestyle. With this you get drag queen story hour for your young children at your local library.

  3. Long live the European Union.
    If Hungary and Poland do not like the rules of the club ( which include tolerance and respect for EVERYONE’s rights ) it is always possible to exit. I doubt that the other 25 will miss Orban, Kaczynski and their highly annoying bullish troublemakers attitude.

  4. SuzyQ: Christmas pantomimes for children, shows such as Aladdin, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty etc have been held every year for generations in the UK. They always have a pantomime ‘dame’. Perhaps you have never seen one.

  5. Mario, it would be nicer for everyone if YOU and the likes left and went to one of those countries who push disgusting beliefs in our throats!

  6. If a country respects nature, that is, a MAN and a WOMAN, who has the right to argue with that?
    Anything else is forced upon us by leftist and politicians!
    If anyone want to behave in an unnatural way, go ahead, but do it out of sight and don’t let us know about your disgusting behavior!

  7. I entirely agree with a country’s decision to avoid ‘unnatural’ situations. Where would it all lead us… look around you, wake up… by allowing all this to happen, you disrupt the natural course of events. Respect…? Yes, but then also respect the opinions and decisions of lawmakers and leaders who would like to keep things simple and straightforward. Yes, everyone can do what they want and live their lives, but please do it in the privacy of your own home and don’t push it down our throats.
