A social worker who ordat referrals to psychologists and ns a support group for LGBT youth said: “In general, even Mosw, the teenagers do not risk raisg this subject [of homosexualy] wh specialists—and I thk they are right to behave that way. Rsia’s “gay propaganda” laws “rerce stigma and prejudice and enurage homophobia, which is patible wh the notns of equaly, pluralism and tolerance herent a mocratic society, ”[198] as the European Court of Human Rights nclud a 2017 se.

In addn, as monstrated this report and elsewhere, the “gay propaganda” laws ntribute to vlence and other forms of harassment agast LGBT youth, vlatn of the rights to secury of person and eedom om vlence, the right to health, and the right to tn. As the European Commissn for Democracy through Law (known as the Venice Commissn), the Council of Europe’s advisory body on nstutnal matters, nclud after analyzg “gay propaganda” laws enacted or proposed Rsia and other Council of Europe member stat:.

Siarly, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe observed 2013 that “gay propaganda” laws “are at variance wh eedom of exprsn and the prohibn of discrimatn on acunt of sexual orientatn and genr inty [and] risk legimisg the prejudice and hostily which is prent society and fuellg a climate of hatred agast LGBT people.

It is th not clear om the se law applyg the provisns, whether the terms “prohibn of homosexual propaganda” have to be terpreted rtrictively, or whether they ver any rmatn or opn favour of homosexualy, any attempt to change the homophobic attu on the part of the populatn towards gays and lbians, any attempt to unterbalance the sometim eply rooted prejudic, by dissematg unbiased and factual rmatn on sexual orientatn. Sendly, seems that the prohibn would more often, although not necsarily, affect persons of homosexual/lbian sexual orientatn, who have a personal tert argug for toleratn of homosexual/lbian sexual orientatn and s acceptance by the majory.

Rsia, the European Court on Human Rights asssed whether a ban on pri march and other public monstratns by LGBT activists was jtifiable on the basis that protected children om harm, ncludg, “There is no scientific evince or soclogil data at the Court’s disposal suggtg that the mere mentn of homosexualy, or open public bate about sexual mori’ social stat, would adversely affect children.... In this regard, a ccial first step is to repeal the “gay propaganda” laws, which enurage and rerce discrimatory attus[268] and “lead to the targetg and ongog persecutn of the untry’s LGBTI muny, cludg through abe and vlence, particular agast unrage LGBTI rights activists. ”[275] A curriculum that ignor the needs of LGBT stunts “normaliz, stereotyp, and promot imag that are discrimatory bee they are based on heteronormativy; by nyg the existence of the lbian, gay, transsexual, transgenr and bisexual populatn, they expose the groups to risky and discrimatory practic.

This re obligatn clus the obligatn to repeal laws—such as Rsia’s “gay propaganda” laws—that “obstct or unrme accs by dividuals or a particular group” to sexual and reproductive health rmatn, [289] and to ensure that everybody has “accs to prehensive tn and rmatn on sexual and reproductive health that are non-discrimatory, non-biased, evince-based, and that take to acunt the evolvg paci of children and adolcents.

The 2013 law banng “propaganda for non-tradnal sexual relatnships” among mors not only rtricted possibili to speak and rm about sexualy and genr issu public—somethg siar is now unfoldg the Uned Stat, should be noted—but also signated homosexualy as a danger to children and to society. Protectg Rsian children—embodyg the natn’s future—om predatory homosexuals as well as om harmful LGBT iology has been a recurrg argument, ed to motivate both the 2013 gay propaganda law and the 2013 “Dima Yakovlev law, ” which banned U.
