Title: LGBTQ - human rights and homophobia

Author: Martin Nikolov

Summary:

An average of 70 reports of homophobia per year are filed on the "We Are Tolerant" platform. However, the reports are mainly anonymous. In cases where they are not anonymous, foundations that work with the LGBTQ community provide legal support and the possibility of reporting to the police.

In Bulgaria, people from the LGBTQ community are subjected to systematic hatred. It is also fueled by political entities. Most often, hate speech is heard in schools and in families, the data show. It turns out that Bulgarians are not such a tolerant people. Or rather, our tolerance depends on our inner needs.

And while in big cities the "different people" are accepted better, the situation in small settlements is a little different, although the cases cannot be put under a common directions.
