Ma 2007, ua hoʻokipa ʻo Madrid ma mua o ʻelua miliona mau huakaʻi i ka wā o ka hoʻokipa Europride, kahi moʻolelo i ka moʻolelo o ka hanana.

I ka ʻike ʻana o nā ʻāina he nui i ka mana o ke dālā mākaʻikaʻi poni, mālama nui ʻia ka mākaʻikaʻi mākaʻikaʻi mai nā ʻāina ʻAsia. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka manawa, kuhi ka poʻe loea mākeke e kau aku ka makemake ʻole o ʻAsia i nā kuʻuna ma mua o ka inaina maoli i ka huakaʻi huakaʻi.

ʻO Thailand kahi hihia hoihoi loa. I ka makahiki 2007, ua noʻonoʻo ʻia ʻo Bangkok e ka Lonely Planet's Blue List ma ke ʻano he ʻumi o nā wahi wela loa no nā kāne male ma ka honua. I kēia manawa, ʻo Bangkok wale nō ke kūlanakauhale ma Asia i loaʻa i kēia kūlana. Eia nō naʻe, mālama mau ʻo TAT i kahi haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa i ka hoʻolaha ʻana i ka mākeke kāne kāne, ʻoiai inā ʻae ʻo TAT i nā pōmaikaʻi waiwai i lawe ʻia e ka huakaʻi gay ma ke Aupuni, e like me ka Juttaporn Rerngronasa. Akā i kēia manawa, ʻaʻohe noiʻi kūhelu i hana ʻia e nā luna mākaʻikaʻi e loiloi i ka mākeke gay.

ʻAʻole mākaukau ʻo TAT e hoʻolaha kūleʻa iā Thailand i kēia mākeke. "ʻAʻole kēia kā mākou kulekele; akā naʻe, ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo ʻenemi mākou i ka māke kāne a mai hoʻokipa paha i nā mea huakaʻi.

ʻO ka manaʻo prudish e hoʻomaopopo iā Punnavit Hantipapart mai ka Golden Banana Hotel: "He nui nā makaʻu i ka hana ʻana i ka hoʻolaha ʻana o ka mākeke kāne e hoʻohihi paha i nā poʻe mākaʻikaʻi makemake ʻole e nānā wale ana i ka moekolohe.
