Prefer to be Blamed but Live in Harmony with Their Body and Soul
Paata Sabelashvili, 32, the guy in a bright T-shirt and with a calm voice. He is communicable and polite person. At the first expression there is nothing strange that might attract the attention of society till they find out his sexual orientation.
Paata, is a director of Inclusive foundation in Tbilisi. This foundation publishes the first LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) informational magazine “Me” and promotes establishment of a society in Georgia, where sexual orientation and gender self-expression wouldn’t be a ground for discrimination.
“We promote equal rights and opportunities for the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) group by organising trainings and meetings. We also promote healthy lifestyle among LGBT. Every time in our meeting take part almost 50-60 people. It’s really progress because most homosexuals hide themselves” says Paata.
One of the reasons for hiding themselves from society is being discriminated against by the same society.
“For instance if we decide to make an investigation on finding out the percentage of LGBT group in Georgia we will have really big troubles with police and so on” mentions Paata.
