[1/8] People take selfie on the day of an annual LGBT Equality Parade in Warsaw, Poland June 17, 2023. With an election in October or November looking tight, activists expect PiS to use issues like gay marriage or teaching about LGBTQ issues in schools to mobilise socially conservative voters. It also says that teaching about LGBTQ issues in schools results in children being sexualised. "We want to celebrate but also fight for more rights [for the LGBTQ community] in Poland," Gora told Reuters. While thousands celebrated marching to the sounds of music, a group of anti-LGBTQ activists from the Foundation for Life and Family burned rainbow flags, the symbol of the LGBTQ community.

[1/8] People take selfie on the day of an annual LGBT Equality Parade in Warsaw, Poland June 17, 2023. It also says that teaching about LGBTQ issues in schools results in children being sexualised. This view, which is regularly featured in state-run media, strikes a chord with many voters in the predominantly Catholic country. For Herda, the fears some conservatives have regarding LGBTQ rights are unfounded. In her view, education about LGBTQ issues is beneficial.
