As I mentioned over the weekend, May 17 has been declared the International Day Against Homophobia (cleverly acronymized to IDAHO).
Interestingly, May 17 2006 is the second anniversary of the date that same-sex couples could begin to get legally married in Massachusetts.
The organizers of IDAHO chose May 17 as the anniversary of the date in 1990 when the World Health Organization removed homosexuality from their list of mental disorders.
The International Lesbian and Gay Association has made a PSA available on its website for IDAHO. You can access it here.
Pass the word along! May 17 is the International Day Against Homophobia!
