May 17: International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia
On May 17 we mark the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia. This date recalls the day in 1990 when the World Health Organization no longer labeled homosexuality as a mental health disorder. Transsexuality is still classified as a psychiatric disorder so there is still work to be done.
