Qld: Kiss in welcomes anti-discrimination change
A small group of Queensland's gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community hascelebrated a new law they say gives a 100 per cent improvement to their legal status.
About a dozen people gathered on the front steps of Queensland Parliament for a kiss-into celebrate the new laws which make it illegal to discriminate against them.
The University of Queensland Students Union says a lot of gay people have simply wantedto be able to hold their partner's hand and kiss without being harassed or bashed.
The union's Male Queer Sexuality Officer KHRYS ROBB says the legislation recognisesthat relationships between same sex and transgender couples are just as valid as any others.
