Organizers of the Paris Olympics, who gave rainbow colors to their logo to mark the international day against homophobia, transphobia, and biphobia, aren't limiting themselves to promises of inclusive Games next year. As the French capital set out plans for a Pride House that will celebrate LGBTQ+ people during the Olympics and Paralympics, organizers pledged that Olympians and campaigners will be given plenty of opportunities to speak for LGBTQ+ rights at next year's event. The last Summer Olympics in Tokyo proved to be something of a watershed for the LGBTQ+ community, with a record number of openly gay competitors. Paris is aiming to build on that progress.
