The biggest Gay Pride Parade in Asia held in Taiwan on this coming 13th of October. The theme for this year is Rainbow Power. The logo is as above and its meanings are as below :
(i)Be brave to step out from the closet
(ii)Get together and be strong (like how we hold our fist in the logo)
(iii)Show the society that LGBT have right to live like what we are
The main purposes why the parade is held :
(i)anti-prejudice on LGBT, everybody is equal
(ii)awareness on LGBT creativity and culture, they are beautiful
(iii)although that LGBT is a small community but society should aware about them also
The concept for the Pride is based on the color from the Rainbow Flag (which represent the community of LGBT) and the descriptions are as below :
RED represents SEX (性爱)
ORANGE represents POWER (力量)
YELLOW represents HOPE (希望)
GREEN represents NATURE (自然)
BLUE represents LIBERTY (自由)
PURPLE/VIOLET represents ART （艺术)
I hope that the event can really keep the society aware about LGBT and there will be no more wrong perception about them too. Well done COMMUNITY!
***LGBT stands for Lesbian, Gays, Bisexuals and Transgenders***
