This annoys me because it implies that like, since the beginning of time until 40 years ago, it was illegal to be a gay. This is plainly bollocks, the legal (or illegal) thing was invented by us, or more precisely (some of) you.
I think this should say “…. celebrating 40 since the de-criminalisation of homosexuality…..”
