My Nomination for World's Toughest Gay Activist Is ...

... Nikolai Alekseev







In his efforts to call attention to the cause for gay rights in Moscow, he faces down the Moscow police and city government, the Russian government and military, The Russian Orthodox Church, Communist and Fascist skinheads, and the Moscow mob. He stages those marches whether they allow it or not.

In the global struggle between gays and assholes, he deserves a medal.

An Honorable Mention to blogger Joe.My.God., doing STELLAR work (inc. catching a homocidal homophobe in ReThuglican Sen Saxby Chambliss's office. Haters can't hide!).

He is strength for those who can't be strong. He is special!
