Just a reminder that the 2016 Olympic games are going to be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil where:

• Same-sex sexual activity is legal
• Civil unions have been legal since 2011
• Nationally recognized same sex marriage became legal last year
• Same-sex couples are explicitly legally protected in adoption procedures.
• Gays are alowed to serve openly in the military
• People are allowed to legally change their name and gender on all identifying documentation.
• A wide-ranging national LGBT anti-discrimination law is working its way through the Senate, to bolster already existing regional and partial anti-discrimination laws.
