A unique history of queer people meeting and eating; dozens of Euro-Parliament members plan to defy Orban’s Budapest Pride ban, U.K. trans women can now be strip-searched by male cops, the dismissal of a gay Venezuelan’s U.S. asylum case stymies due process, but an endangered gay Guatemalan man wins protection from a U.S. federal court, and men in dresses will still sashay through the Kennedy Center’s drag ban.
