  1. >Lithuania is one of the only EU countries to not have legalised same-sex marriage or civil partnerships, and according to a 2022 study commissioned by the Free Society Institute, more than 70% of Lithuanians are against same-sex partnerships – one of the highest rates in Europe.

    Man sunku patikėti kad procentų skaičius yra gerokai didesnės, nejaugi beveik visi Lietuvos gyventojai stojo homofobijos ir fanatizmo pusėje? Ir Lietuviai nori būti lyginami į Šiaurės Europiečius? Go figure.

    >But even if a comparison with Russia looks flattering, Lithuania is still lagging behind its Baltic neighbours Latvia and Estonia, demonstrators Damaseviciute and Karalius claimed. They thought a “Soviet mindset”, a hangover from Lithuania’s part in the USSR, was holding the country back from equality. “Older generations who lived through this system still aren’t that open-minded,” Damaseviciute told Euronews.

    Ir Lietuviai stebėsi kodėl kai kurie užsieniečiai vadina juos “R-sais”, nes Sovietinė mąstysena yra toliau paplitusi tarp Lietuvių.
