Happy Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

At Tokyo Pride 2025, we asked visitors, "Do you have a message to people claiming LGBTQA+ is a concept imported from the West?" and these are some of the replies! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Japan has a long history of diverse expressions of love and identity — from Edo-period same-sex relationships among samurai to gender-fluid performers in traditional theatre. Being queer isn’t new here. It’s always been part of the culture. #TokyoPride #PrideMonth #QueerInJapan #LGBTQ #Pride2025 #JapanLife #LoveIsLove #ilivehere #HappyPride FOLLOW US --------------------------------------------------- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gaijinpot Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GaijinPot Twitter: https://twitter.com/GaijinPot TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gaijinpot.study https://www.tiktok.com/@gaijinpot.jobs https://www.tiktok.com/@gaijinpot.apartments https://www.tiktok.com/@gaijinpot.travel JAPAN RESOURCES --------------------------------------------------- ►FIND JOBS IN JAPAN: https://jobs.gaijinpot.com ►RENT APARTMENTS: https://apartments.gaijinpot.com/en/rent ►STUDY IN JAPAN: https://study.gaijinpot.com ►TRAVEL GUIDE: https://travel.gaijinpot.com ►BLOGS & GUIDES: https://blog.gaijinpot.com
