I’ll start it off. Add 3-4 sentences, but stop mid-sentence so that the next person can finish your thought. Here we go:

I awoke in a panic. Something was wrong, but I couldn’t quite tell what. I lept out of bed and opened the curtains. A wave of anxiety spread through every vein in my body as I saw

A wild homosexual had appeared. Then this strange 8bit music started playing and the lights started flashing. I knew he was challenging me to a battle. As I was standing next to my bed I reached for my

trusty sawed-off. Three rounds later the transient homosexual was dead, and I was filled with the overwhelming and almost crippling sense that I had somehow awoken into a different reality. A reality filled with

my biggest passion: video games. What I always imagined as a dream was actually a twisted nightmare… and I just killed a gay person. Just then, an old man with a long white beard walked into my room and shouted, “Quick, you must leave! Here, take my

Compare LGBT Rights Between Any Country With Equaldex’s New Feature

Equaldex just launched a new tool that lets you compare LGBT rights and public opinion data between countries, states, and provinces.

The new tool lets you compare the legal status of homosexuality, same-sex marriage, adoption by same-sex couples, right to change legal gender, discrimination protections, ability for LGBT people to serve in the military, age of consent, blood donation, and conversion therapy. Many major countries include public opinion data as well.

Popular comparisons are now available on the sidebar of region pages, letting you easily compare a region with a similar region.

Try it now!

Compare LGBT Rights

Or, try one of these comparisons:

What I’ve been working on for the past month! 

Equaldex’s new compare tool lets you see side-by-side comparisons between any country, state, or province.

Remember when homophobes said they’d move to Canada because the US legalized gay marriage? Equaldex’s new tool shows why they’ll be disappointed when they arrive.

Viet Vu’s TEDx Talk, “Bi the Way, We Exist,” on Bisexuality, Coming Out, and Equaldex

Viet Vu, Equaldex moderator and Economics major at University of British Columbia, delivered a TEDx Talk speaking about the complexities of coming out as bisexual, LGBTQ+ rights, and his involvement with Equaldex.

Before becoming a moderator on Equaldex, Viet was a top contributor to the site, even before it was launched to the public.

“In this TEDx talk, Viet speaks about the complexities of coming out as bisexual and the positive and negative reactions that he received from his family and friends. While focusing on a group that is rarely talked about in LGBTQ+ rights, Viet explains how anyone can have a tangible impact on someone’s life by choosing to care.

Viet is a fourth-year Economics student at the Vancouver School of Economics. He’s also a researcher at Equaldex, a database that maps the status of LGBTQ+ rights worldwide.”

Equaldex Country Pages Receive Uplift

Equaldex’s country pages received a facelift! Check it out: LGBT Rights in Canada (or visit any country page on Equaldex).

The summary section of each country is a little more visual, highlighting homosexuality and same-sex marriage. The country’s shape animates as you scroll, and the visual design of the “history” and “subregions” sections were slightly cleaned up. The bottom of each page displays other countries in the same continent.

More examples:

Just finished giving Equaldex’s country pages a facelift! Check it out!

Country shapes were provided by Map Glyphs, a font package that includes shapes of every country. And using a CSS gradient background, the rainbow stays fixed as you scroll. Also works in states/provinces of the United States, Canada, Australia, and the UK.

From the video’s description:

“On June 29, thousands of Apple employees and their families marched in the San Francisco Pride Parade. They came from around the world — from cities as far as Munich, Paris, and Hong Kong — to celebrate Apple’s unwavering commitment to equality and diversity. Because we believe that inclusion inspires innovation.”

Amazing. <3 you, Apple!
