More than 1,000 Croatian gays, lesbians, bisexuals and their supporters have signed their names in a newspaper ad that pleas for tolerance.

The ad, titled "We don't want to hide anymore" was published Tuesday in the country's two largest selling dailies - Jutarnji List and Vecernji List and in several magazines.

Gays say they are habitually vilified in the staunchly Catholic country and often face physical abuse.

1. Good for them!

Repressing sexuality, as the Catholic Church demands, leads to all kinds of mental illness and related problems. Wishing them much progress in changing attitudes.
