The world`s biggest survey and report of LGBT+ people and hate crime has revealed that the majority of respondents were afraid to hold their partner`s hand in Europe out of fear of reprisals.
62% of those surveyed said they “often” or “always” avoided holding their partner`s hand out of fear of being harassed. 140,000 LGBT+ people across Europe and the UK along with North Macedonia and Serbia were surveyed by the EU`s Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA).
