By Ayla Jean Yackley. Candidates from the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community - along with Christians, Roma and members of dozens of other ethnicities and cultures - are running for parliament this weekend in large numbers for the first time. Homosexuality is legal yet frowned upon in Turkey. While constitutionally secular, the country has been governed for more than 12 years by the AK Party which draws much of its support from conservative Muslims. Still, AKP governments have also acted to ease some pressure on ethnic and sexual minorities. Half of its nominees are women.

LGBT culture in San Francisco
The city itself has, among its many nicknames, the nicknames "gay capital of the world" and "the gay Mecca", and has been described as "the original 'gay-friendly city'". These transient and diverse populations thrust into a relatively anarchic environment were less likely to conform to social conventions. For example, with an unbalanced gender ratio, men often assumed roles conventionally assigned to women in social and domestic settings. Cross-gender dress and same-sex dancing were prevalent at city masquerade balls where some men assumed the traditional role of women going so far as to wear female attire. Cross-dressing is still an important part of LGBT culture in the city today.





Richard Ammon. Here you can hear people speaking proudly of themselves as being Kurdish, of their identity, culture and language. It is both ancient and modern, an oriental city enclosed by magnificent Roman walls and beyond the new Ofis district city beaming with social and cultural life. There are no bars or cafes that are specifically aimed at gay or trans people.
