One reason gay people feel less safe to walk hand in hand even in a liberal city such as Amsterdam is the influx of new immigrants from non-European countries. There is a clash of cultures and religion. These new immigrants do not easily meld into their new host countries.
even in of the gay friendliest country, the discrimination still happen, i just want to say it's our duty to promote 'equality for all' messages to all people. #lovewins
Love Amsterdam and the Dutch people. The country holds a special place in my heart forever. I can’t wait to be back. Much love from the Philippines!! 🇵🇭❤️
Since I moved here in Holland I feel safe........... I know what is to be discriminated for being gay... I love Holland and I am happy living here.....
I'm 54. I've never been safe to walk hand in hand (nothing else, just that) with the love of my life. Just to do something so simple without it costing my life would be amazing. I know i'll leave this earth never knowing what it's like.
Dutch tolerance is the ability or willingness to tolerate the existence of opinions or behaviour that one dislikes or disagrees with. Tolerance sounds positive in NLD but tolerating someone does not mean accepting the individual.
@vl2 Racism is sometimes also a sign of this tolerance. There are a lot of people here like vl2 who are racist but won't say it to the victims faces. Although the reason also might be that he/she is probably a coward and typing comments on the internet is safer this way....
10% gave this video a thumbs down (when I saw this video on June 29, 2021). That is so disappointing. It's SO important for the LGBTQI community to educate those who don't understand us. I lived through the AIDS pandemic, where I endured so many negative, hateful comments about our community. My passion now is to teach others, who don't understand our community, as to who WE are....... as LGBTQI souls.
I hope that later on in the years people will just get used to it and all the discrimination will die down... i hope to move to the netherlands someday, i hate it here in america.

I lived in Amsterdam in the 90's. I celebrated Gay Pride in the city many times...Also was there for the GAY GAMES..I think in 96 or 97. It was like heaven on earth to be of free...The Dutch people are so warm and welcoming... Times certainly have changed from what I hear from my Dutch friends..The Gay scene has changed and not for the better...The gay street Reguliersdwarstraat is very different. April Bar is closed, Havana Bar is closed and others on the street are not in business anymore....Also The Thermos Sauna...Amazing place is also closed. My friends have informed me that they don't feel as free and it is not as safe as before.. Sad to hear.... The world is a different place...I was fortunate to have been there during wonderful times.
Here in america it is the complete opposite, we have it way easier now than we did back in the 90s. Not as easy as you guys in the netherlands since there are no legal protections against lgbtq members., but easier than we did have.
Great! We are building a safe future for not only gay people, but also for all those who still are excluded! Be brave, never think of yourself as a looser, inferior or anything bad, just because people made you feel so. There are no real frontiers between countries... there are no real diferences between people all around the world. We all belong to the same big family who might share this small little blue planet, in peace and love!
Satan, also called the adversary or the devil, is the enemy of all righteousness and of those who seek to follow God. he and his followers try to lead us away from righteousness. he has many schemes to mislead and turn man from God. satan attempts to undermine us by confusing gender, promoting sexual relations outside of marriage, ridiculing marriage, and discouraging childbearing by married adults who would otherwise raise children in righteousness. The Bible condemns any form of sexual act that is considered “worthless” in God's eyes. homosexuality, beastiality, fornication, and adultery. they say it’s all love and everything, but really there is no true love, they are just looking for lust. God made man & woman as a perfect couple to be fruitful, multiply and replenish the earth. This was given by God not freely chosen. Going against His image & His design is going against Him. We aren't here to change the word of God the word of God is here to change us, What are the actual "fruits"-the results-of the homosexual lifestyle? Can't naturally have biological kids, Diseases, Suffering, Unfulfillment, Nothingness! homosexual activity leads to a Host of serious transmitted diseases (STDs) HIV, fatal transmitted Infections, and physical health problems, mental health problems, major depression, anxiety, substance abuse and greater risk of suicidal and a greatly shortened lifespan and the suffering list goes on. why are there so many diseases? why such young deaths? It has to do with the sexual practices. It goes against how God created bodies to work. and when you violate God’s design, there are always consequences. Same-sex attraction is always an expression of the fallen nature. But if you repent now, God forgiveness starts the process and His power continues to work in us, when we say yes to Him. But when we fail to listen to God, then problems, affliction and suffering will be the Consequence of disobedience. I say this lovingly and to say truth in love is to love one another. Do not value your homosexuality Sin more than you value God. the only hope for the homosexual and all people who break God's laws is to turn to Christ. If we want to walk with Christ we must repent and reject our fleshly desires and deny ourselves. God can save you from that horrible life and community. God promises the strength for Victory over sin, Including homosexuality, to all those who will believe in Jesus Christ for their Salvation.
I'm a chilean Latino travelling to Amsterdam in November. I hope I'll find a nice guy whose hand I can hold in at least for a while (who knows then). I don't care what others say and I can defend myself. I'm a short 29 years old brown mestizo. Let's have some fun!
My god, soooooo many beautiful people, gondola's FULL of long legs and blonde hair. I was walking down the street and almost fell down on my face @ 4:15 . It was like I saw a piece of heaven with light so bright it almost blinded me. I got back up and started walking again and then, @ 6:44 .......it hit me again.....that same brilliant light.

Tim Vuong i honestly wouldn’t know i will go too the pride event this year but im not from amsterdam im all the way from rotterdam im not well known with areas in amsterdam
well at least you wont get stoned to death or beheaded like me , you guys are allowed to have a life ! i hope you can all come to appreciate that , cause i can tell you , for someone in my position having hope of risking their life to run away is the only option or hope thats keeping me alive, & if my crack of light or (hope) someday or somehow died, i can guarantee that i will die with it , my soul will be much better if i commit suicide than if i stay alive at this harsh place and im in no way exaggerating im holding on to the silver linings..
Peter 1920 dudeee i hope you’re okay! This sounds terrible. I don’t know where you live, but i know there’s something better out there for you. Keep going dude. I hope you break free one day because everyone deserves to feel free and be themselves.
I think no matter how a community is open with LGBT straightf people, still find male gays not acceptable to their standards. Though they do not show it outwardly. Straight men might be friendly to male gays, but still they prefer straight friends that they can relate to. I like gays because they are fun to be with but I am not comfortable sleeping around with gays. As much I like their friendship, however, many take advantage of my physically and I am not comfortable with it. I have a traumatic experience in my youth that I was almost being sexually abused by an old gay family friend. Till now, I feel, and I don't trust my kids to be with gays. I am not discriminating gay guys, I just try to understand them. I just happened to get attracted to the opposite sex, and have my family of my own, and enjoy seeing my kids growing. I respect the LGBT people.

Dutch tolerance is WRONG. Acceptance must take place of both other ethnicities and lgbtq people.
