Pink Pearls Magazine Issue Nr. 5
presents the European lesbian scene
Pink Freedom
Through amongst others the social media, Pink Pearls Amsterdam gets in touch with more and more organizations and institutions that fight for LGBT rights in especially Eastern Europe. In our magazine, we ask for attention for the countries where lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people are still struggling. We do that by publishing columns of EU members of parliament Ulrike Lunacek and Marije Cornelissen.
Pink Pearls 3Step Match: the new dating with guarantee and safety

Unfortunately, a profile picture is not enough to keep a dating site pure for its target group.
