Charlie Somik Chan is one of the many transgender people who have used social media to express themselves and share their journey with the world. She is an example of how beauty can come in different forms and how one can overcome challenges and prejudices to be true to oneself.

However, being an LGBTQ activist in Russia is not easy. The country has a long history of homophobia and transphobia, fueled by the Orthodox Church and conservative politicians. In 2013, Russia passed a law that bans the distribution of \\\"propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations\\\" among minors, effectively criminalizing any public expression or discussion of LGBTQ identities and issues. The law has been widely condemned by human rights groups and international organizations as discriminatory and harmful.

Since then, LGBTQ people in Russia have faced increasing harassment, violence and persecution from both state and non-state actors. According to a 2020 report by ILGA-Europe, an LGBTQ advocacy group, LGBTQ people in Russia have been subjected to arbitrary arrests, detentions, torture, hate crimes, online bullying, censorship and surveillance. The report also notes that LGBTQ activists have been denied permits to hold peaceful rallies, fined for violating the \\\"propaganda\\\" law and targeted by homophobic vigilante groups.

In December 2020, President Vladimir Putin signed into law a bill that expands the ban on LGBTQ \\\"propaganda\\\" to adults as well, making it illegal for anyone to promote or praise LGBTQ relationships, publicly express non-heterosexual orientations or suggest that they are \\\"normal.\\\" The law also imposes heavier penalties for anyone promoting \\\"non-traditional sexual relations and/or preferences,\\\" as well as pedophilia and gender transition[^4^]. Putin has defended the law as a way of protecting Russian culture and values from Western influence.

Despite these challenges, some LGBTQ activists in Russia have managed to score some victories in their fight for equality and dignity. In November 2020, parliament revoked a bill that would have banned same-sex marriage and ended the legal recognition of transgender people. The bill was co-authored by conservative lawmaker Elena Mizulina, who also spearheaded the 2013 \\\"propaganda\\\" law. Many activists had expected the bill to pass in the fall, but it was repealed for revision and could now be scrapped altogether. Svetlana Zakharova, a spokesperson at the Russian LGBT Network in St. Petersburg, says that the LGBTQ community and its allies in Russia managed to unite to resist the legislation \\\"more than ever before.\\\" 061ffe29dd
