Please visit the video on YouTube and post comments of support for greater awareness about issues of homophobia in Armenia and the global Armenian community.

How does one say “homosexuality” in Armenian?
Would any Armenian-speaker volunteer to create an article about homosexuality on the Armenian Wikipedia ? The article exists in plenty of languages, as you can see here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality but not yet on http://hy.wikipedia.org/
Article started here : http://hy.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D5%84%D5%AB%D5%A1%D5%BD%D5%A5%D5%BC%D5%A1%D5%AF%D5%A1%D5%B6
Any Armenian-speaker may help by modifying and adding to it.

Finally, is the homophobia in Armenia similar to other lands in the region or is it worse?
