The Danes have a proud history of progressing gay rights with homosexuality in Denmark first being decriminalized in 1933 the in 1989 Denmark made history as the first country in the world to recognize registered partnerships for same-sex couples. And did we mention how absolutely gorgeous the Danes are…ĭenmark society is somewhat intrinsically progressive, in that they – much like the Dutch – are always looking for a better way to do things.
There may, however, be no greater city in the world for homosexuals to visit than Copenhagen thanks to its tolerant and open communities and vibrant gay scene – and as a gay man here you can visit straight bars with no problems, or walk home holding your lover’s hand.
Add to this Copenhagen is one of the world’s most liveable cities filled with animated cycleways, world-class public transport, inviting public spaces which function as living rooms and a full roster of events and it is easy to see why everyone – gay, straight or unicorn – is flocking to this colorful and cool Scandinavian capital.
