Summary
Russian authorities fined at least seven people in Tula for “looking too gay” during a nightclub raid in February, with charges based on “promoting non-traditional sexual relations” through their clothing.
This crackdown reflects Russia’s broader push to enforce “traditional values,” including tightening anti-LGBT laws and banning LGBT “propaganda” across all age groups.
Judges ruled that outfits like corsets, fishnet tights, and dyed hair violated the law.
In 2024, at least 71 people were fined under these laws, which critics view as escalating discrimination against the LGBT community.

He actually doesnt make the worst furry. Is that what this is lol?
I searched for “Femboy Putin”.
Lmao
I definitely look “too straight”. So I should get that money paid to my accounts.
As far as I know, even China doesn’t go this far against LGBT people, Russia is literally becoming worse than China.
Eastern Europe is generally very anti LGBTQ.
Also really racist. It’s like the US in the 50s. Most people have only ever seen [pick your difference] people on tv.
Russia has been worse than China for a very long time now.
Always has been

It’s fucked up that Russia is doing shit like this. That said,
he was wearing a short top covering his chest, black leather shorts above the knee, on which there were several chain-shaped ornaments, and fishnet tights
That is pretty gay. Doesn’t at all deserve persecution, but certainly fits the bill.
I don’t know man. It feels like pigeonholing somebody’s sexual preferences based on the style of their clothing might not be accurate.
Take a look at this photo of Mötley Crue from back in the day, and those guys were renowned for their heterosexuality.
I don’t understand how this flaming dude’s attire breaks a law about “promoting non traditional relations”. This is just dressing up, not doing propaganda.
The Russian oligarchs clearly thought it promoted a desire within them for some kind of relations.
I mean, the way you dress isn’t really connected to sexuality. It may be somewhat connected to gender presentation (not gender overall, but the way society interprets gender through presentation), but gender and sexual preference are not directly connected either. I dress fairly feminine at times, including exposed bras, fishnets, and dyed hair, but I’m not really interested in men.
Dr. Frankenfurter?
The literal fashion police. It would be funny if it wasn’t so sad.
It’s paywalled, so I can only assume that this:

Only applies to men, because I’m guessing the authorities wouldn’t think she was too gay:
Well. She can be gay too.
But is she too gay?
Got any pics of her making out with another lady? We can decide if we see those.
No, needs at least 300% more gay.
She needs to dye her hair for the 130% bonus
I would be very surprised if that was her natural hair color.
Nah, not enough flannel.
🤞🏼
dyed hair?
So when do they arrest the cops and people complaining who all openly admitted to feeling aroused?
They should wear what used to be worn in the 19th century in the Russian imperial court and call it patriotism.
Sigh for when Tula only used to be known for samovars…
