Pink Dot crowds pack KITEC; participants say it is not just a gathering of sexual minorities
Pink Dot人海逼爆九展 參加者:不只是性小眾圍爐
Pink Dot, held in Hong Kong since 2014, was staged at the Kowloon Bay International Trade & Exhibition Centre for the second consecutive year. This year’s theme was “我係咁!敢係我!Express Yourself!”. Crowds dressed in pink streamed through the venue, where cheers could also be heard from time to time, creating a lively atmosphere. A couple who had attended for two consecutive years said people of any gender or sexual orientation could support gender equality, and that the event was “not just a group of sexual minorities gathering together”. Some parents also took part while passing by with their children, saying it was a good thing for children to learn about gender issues from an early age.
自2014年起在本港舉辦的「Pink Dot 一點粉紅」,連續第二年於九龍灣國際展貿中心舉行,本年主題為「我係咁!敢係我!Express Yourself!」,場內身穿粉紅色衣物的人潮絡繹不絕,現場亦不時傳出歡呼聲,氣氛熱烈。有連續兩年出席活動的情侶表示,不論任何性別、性取向的人士都可以支持性別平權,活動「唔係淨係性小眾嗰班聚埋一齊」;亦有家長帶同小朋友路過參與,認為讓小朋友及早認識性別議題是好事。
