Reporting from Washington— Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton called on world leaders for the first time Tuesday to stop discrimination against gays and lesbians, announcing that the United States would use diplomacy and $3 million in aid to help expand the rights of gay people around the world.
In a speech to mark Human Rights Day, which is celebrated Saturday, Clinton declared that protecting the rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people is "now one of the remaining human rights challenges of our time" and compared it to the battles for women's rights, racial equality and religious freedom.
Speaking at the United Nations' human rights body in Geneva, she noted that obstacles to gender equality in much of the world "rest on deeply held personal, political, cultural and religious beliefs."
"Some seem to believe it is a Western phenomenon, and therefore people outside the West have grounds to reject it," Clinton said. "Well, in reality, gay people are born into and belong to every society in the world."
She challenged other governments to join U.S. efforts against gender discrimination hours after President Obama directed U.S. agencies working overseas to help combat the criminalization of sexual orientation and to enhance efforts to protect gay and lesbian refugees and asylum seekers.
Clinton announced the launch of a Global Equality Fund to assist civil organizations that promote equal rights for gays abroad. She said the U.S. had committed more than $3 million to start the fund.
The initiative builds on the Obama administration's effort to promote the rights of gays and lesbians at home. The Pentagon this year dismantled its ban on gays serving openly in the military, and Obama recently directed the federal government not to defend a law that defines marriage as between one man and one woman.

Mrs. Clinton teared up on this speech. Huma?
I swear I do think this zero is a closet homosexual.
All the problems in the world and he has to focus on this .
Then add the media who ignore all of this and even support this perverted agenda , even like Megyn Kelly on FOX.
They go and live in NY City, they go to their elitist parties, they mix and meet cross dressers, homo’s and homo’s who cross dress who say they’re not homo’s and then after a year they think this weird utter perverted crap is normal.
>> “now one of the remaining human rights challenges of our time”
Forget 3rd world persecution of women, Christians, Tibetan Buddhists, African villagers, North Vietnamese, children of slavery & the sex trade, Jews, dissidents, etc...
She teared up over the Homo agenda? Or was it from the smell in the room.

Well, since Hillary asked nicely, I will make it a point not to discriminate against any queers in foreign countries.
They are in Uganda where they are working on a law to execute gays, and put people who don’t rat on them in jail for a long time.
