ABSTRACT

Expecting only 500 participants, the rather constant number that have appeared for the past four years at the International Day Against Homophobia (IDAHO) events held in Hong Kong, the organizers were very happy when around 1,000 participants – tongzhi or tongzhi-friendly participants – turned up, walked from Causeway Bay, along Hennessy Road, and ended up in Southorn Playground, Wanchai, where performances, dances and shows were staged.1
