We all know the feeling when the newspapers were flooded with carefree, colorful pictures of the LGBTQ community finally winning over their struggle for legal rights. It still remains to be a huge victory this country has seen lately but not many people know about the actual struggle and the level of challenges that the community as a whole had to go through.
