Gay Russian blogger Kyrill Egor, who writes about LGBT rights and fights homophobia, decided to visit a supermarket run by a man named German Sterligov, who posts signs in his stores across Russia which read “faggots not allowed.”
“Of course it's a provocation,” admits Egor. “Sterligov's from the countryside. I'm from the countryside. Of course it was scary.”
“I thought they'd start freaking out, call someone,” adds Egor. But what he found surprised him.
