On July 14, the day of the opening of the Summer Olympics in Paris, the symbolic Olympic torch will be carried by a transvestite, drag queen Minima Geste, according to a representative of the LGBT community on their Instagram.
Minima Geste promises to run the distance in shoes with 25-centimeter heels and invites everyone to watch this spectacle.
"I confirm my full support for her. I repeat: I am proud, and yes, Paris is proud that a drag queen will carry the torch and the values of the world," said Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo.
As reported, in Poland, criticism of the LGBT community could result in a three-year prison sentence.
