Any expression of LGBTQI identity is almost impossible in Russia, with a “gay propaganda” law banning the distribution of materials on non-traditional relationships among any age group and the promotion of homosexual relationships to children.
There are people with gender “anomalies” but the “tyranny of minorities” cannot happen, said Valentina Matviyenko, a staunch ally of President Vladimir Putin and considered Russia’s most powerful woman.
“Men and women are the biological, social and cultural backbones of communities,” Matviyenko wrote in a blog on the Council’s website.
“Therefore, there are no dangerous gender games in our country and never will be. Not in kindergartens, not in schools, not in education, not in politics, not in lawmaking. Let us leave it to the West to conduct this dangerous experiment on itself…”
The International Women’s Day holiday was first celebrated in Russia 110 years ago and is one of its most important holidays, next to welcoming the New Year and the Victory Day.
While filled with public and private celebrations, flowers and gifts, it has nothing to do with the feminist movement for protection of women’s rights.
The constitution guarantees equal rights for men and women, but Russian women continue to face inequality and are expected to prioritise motherhood over professional development.

PS, I’m prejudiced against stupidity of the gross kind that you display.
There’s too long a list I’m afraid. But what I find weird is that you folk say something and then deny you said it.
Nix
say something and then deny you said it
Just like you?
I think it would be reasonable to take your refusal to detail your (inane) complaints as evidence that you made them up.
After all, that is what you do with the rest of your stupid attempts at commenting.
Nix, you haven’t once posted the actual words you claim people have said, you always misrepresent them, then when called on it you double down instead of quote their words. That’s because it’s a deliberate tactic. You seem so addicted to your twisted idea of what you think other people are, you don’t seem capable of actually allowing their words to be heard by quoting them verbatim, that might shatter your narrow and pathetic world view.
