Why is the legalization of same-sex marriage timely? We are talking to LGBT+ activist Olena Shevchenko

Ukraine is not russia. On July 9, an electronic petition on the legalization of same-sex marriages on the website of the President of Ukraine gathered more than 25,000 signatures, which are necessary for its consideration by the head of state. The appeal appeared on the website of the head of state on June 3, 2022.

At this time, every day can be the last. Let people of the same sex have the opportunity to start a family and have an official document to prove it. They need the same rights as traditional couples, - the petition describes.

In the new episode of the "Damned Questions" podcast, we talk with the head of the NGO "Insight" and LGBT+ activist Olena Shevchenko about why the legalization of same-sex marriage is timely, why it is needed and what scenario it might follow.
