Let’s talk misogyny and LGBTQ+ dynamics in EE: What’s real and what’s exaggerated?

Hey everyone. I’m working on a video essay focusing on Eastern European societal attitudes;specifically regarding women’s roles, misogyny, and LGBTQ+ acceptance. ​I don't want textbook statistics, I want your lived experience and honest opinions: ​–Where do you think Eastern European society currently draws the line between "traditional family values" and plain, aggressive misogyny? –​How do people in your country actually react when someone comes out or presents alternative/queer, versus how politicians claim "the public" reacts? ​–What is a specific societal bias people in our region hold that they refuse to admit is toxic? ​–For women living in Eastern Europe: what’s one thing about gender dynamics here that Westerners completely misunderstand?

For the "what bias do you hold?" Idk man, I'm a feminist young lady from Moldova from a conservative traditional family who believes in equality and love is love.

Stay safe out there, yall <3
