Credited with starting the gay movement in his native country, which had an impact on the country's approach to the subject. Co-founded a unit at Ljubljana Students' Cultural center named "Magnus" (partly after Magnus Hirschfeld), whose purpose was "socialization of homosexuality thrsough culture". To create a common forum, later initiated a new organisation called "Roza klub" (Pink Club) that deals with overlapping issues.
