At least this is what US branched online travel goods retailer "Expedition" (Ruyan Holding, Russia) says.
On November 8, 2012 on their official Facebook page, in response to Spectrum Human Rights alliance (
www.spectrumhr.org)
questions regarding sexual discrimination policies, "Expedition" responded (in Russian):
"We are looking for real heroes and wizards. However, such roles are suitable for people with "traditional sexual orientation."
...We stand for good deeds. Hunger-strikes and gay parades are not such deeds." (
