Kissing for equality

On Tuesday, students met in front of the M.D. Anderson Library at Butler Plaza with their companions to participate in a quick kiss simultaneously on St. Valentine’s Day. The event was held in support of the University’s LGBT faculty and staff. Esteban Tobar and Angela Hoang pictured above shared a kiss at the event. | Chris Luong/The Daily Cougar

  • This makes me proud of the UH family. I am glad to know that there are more people willing to allow me the freedom to love my husband in public. It's GREAT to be a COUGAR!!

  • I was proud to be a part of this event. I take great happiness in being able to openly and unreservedly show my love and affection for my significant other. It's a feeling that everyone should be able to enjoy no matter who they are in love with. UH is a shining beacon in my life for progressive ideals and beliefs, and I hope it can continue to be an example for the rest of the nation and the world.

  • i've never seen a gay couple holding hands or being openly gay at UH, and i don't see any in this picture that is supposed to be about open gay couples on campus. did none show up?
