In 2014 an official at the Yodogawa Ward Office in Osaka put rainbow-colored stickers on the doors of unisex multipurpose restrooms in municipal government buildings considering easiness to use restrooms in neutrality for LGBT people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people and it spread to another building too. However there are many backlash against this act because they thought that is not necessary attention for them so that the municipal government decided to finish putting those signs anymore. Also in February it happened same things at office in Kyoto too. At a news conference last month, Mayor Hirofumi Yoshimura said “Doing nothing is the worst thing.” claiming the city’s objective to keep taking measures for the LGBT community. It showed people the difficulty of satisfying every hopes. “Support means offering a hand to help with individual difficulties,” one of the meeting’s organizers said. “Posting stickers is not synonymous with support.”

This reminded me of the LGBT person who came to my high school to tell about herself and LGBT. She was born as a girl but she feels something different for her gender, feelings, favors, and so on. As she through her life, she has faced many difficulties such as prejudicing from school friends, neighborhoods, and even society. Even though there are still many problems left, the Japanese society have got be better and better for LGBT society, she said. I think the current status of Japan that same sex practitioners are not allowed to marry by law is one of the biggest task and it need to be changed in the future because there are many unfavorable things if they are different on family register such as insurances, loans, and taxes. I agree with the opinion which is the difficulty of satisfying every hopes in any daily situations not only in LGBT community so perhaps “Doing nothing is the worst thing.” However on the other hand, we also should care more about LGBT people to make them easier to live little by little.
