I wonder why? The ACL influencing their decision perhaps? I am gay too just turned 19 and I have lived in Cairns for all of my life, do not be fooled by people saying that Cairn’s is a gay friendly place – in fact far from it! In Queensland because of recent legislation on civil partnerships, same sex adoption, equal age of consent and the abolition on the GPD – please do not be fooled this is a cover up by lawmakers on all sides. Queensland is still the most homophobic place within Australia. Recently a gay cowboy was harassed on Facebook for doing what he loves being a cowboy! For far too long the bigots have been in charge. Well this will soon change right now. We are here – we are gay – get over it and build a bridge bigots – it is 2017!
