     In Switzerland, attacks (verbal and physical) against LGBTQ people have risen to a new high - up by 50 percent!

     A speaker for the Transgender Network Switzerland seems baffled looking for reasons. Maybe, so one guess, there is now more awareness, and thus more hate crimes are being reported. But also, the overall political climate definitely swings against minorities again.

     And people laugh at me or even insult me when I say I don't want to hold hands in public.
