    The Gay Games are intended to promote freedom and rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. Some of this year's participants hailed from countries with strict anti-gay laws, like Kenya, Saudi Arabia and Russia.https://nyti.ms/2B7qj32

        I fail to see why the lgbt community needs to keep separating themselves from the rest of society instead of just blending together as one large normal society.

        ..... many of the participants of this event can’t do that because their governments will literally put them in jail. All LGBT people want to do is live in peace. Events like this one might help in the fight for that simple right.

        I feel sorry for the participants from those countries. They won’t be able to go home again in safety.

        This is so bloody ridiculous... Labels separate, they never unite .. What you never hear from no one is universal respect, regardless of sexual presences, gender, race, religion etc No, it's all about labels and special privileges

        I didn’t even know about the Gay Games, but I expect the opening ceremony was fabulous! I don’t mean that to sound like a joke, honest!

        Since the lgbt community can participate in all other venues, are heterosexuals allowed to compete in this?
