Ukrainian Gay and Lesbian Association We consider that the LGBTs� situation and issues in Ukraine are enough difficult and complicated. Only two Ukrainian cities - Kiev and Odessa - have the more or less developed and open public LGBT life with clubs, bars, saunas, and sea or river beaches. Naturally, all the big cities in Ukraine have cruising places (which often are AYOR). Many widely known Ukrainian artists, businessmen, politicians and church persons are LGBT, but practically all are afraid of coming out. Though the Ukrainian Parliament (Supreme Rada) still in 1992 decriminalized gay sex acting and the Ukrainian public opinion as a rule is enough tolerant in this issue, but the LGBTs so far have to face various serious problems both in public or professional activities and personal private life.

The GAYducks Campaign GAYducks is short for "Get All Your Ducks In A Row." This grass-roots movement grew organically from our efforts to educate and encourage the LGBT community to get their wishes regarding health care and Estate Planning issues in writing. Because gays and lesbians have no right to marry in any state in the U.S., we are denied the basic legal protections taken for granted by heterosexual couples. It's time for a change.

- - Those who profess to favor freedom and yet depreciate agitation, are people who want crops without ploughing the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightning; they want the ocean without the roar of its many waters. The struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, or it may be both. But it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand; it never has and it never will. - - Frederick Douglass
