A gay kiss-in was held in Paris in the shopping district (near the Printemps and Galeries Lafayette shopping center) on december 12. Other kiss-ins  took place in a dozen cities, as well as in Belgium and Montréal, Canada. That was the fourth "kiss-in against homophobia" since the one held in front of the Eiffel Tower.
