Protesting City residents shared photos of themselves holding hands, hugging and kissing on public transport.
Citizens of Hong Kong took to social media this week after it emerged an advert featuring a same-sex couple had been banned from the city’s Mass Transit Railway (MTR) and airport.

A poster at the airline’s headquarters shows two men holding hands on a beach with “Move beyond labels” written underneath.

I'm a relationship oriented guy. Versatile, HIV-, no drugs, no drama. Love to laugh. Live right on a lake and enjoy the water. Love to explore, and the DC area has lots of interesting things to see and do. Looking for a decent looking guy, 24 - 39, whose mind is working, has a decent sense of humor and some adventure in him. Someone who says what he means and means what he says.
