As a member of the World Association of Homosexuals (WAH), it is one of my basic duties in spreading the Gay Agenda to talk about gay news until I lose all my friends/readers*.
So it is with pleasure I inform you of a news item sent my way by a good friend this morning: India has decriminalized gay sex - which has been punishable by fines and up to 10 years in prison since 1860.
Way to get with the times, India!
A very inspiring quote came from Ashok Row Kavi, an Indian gay rights acivist.
"I will return to India as a free gay man ... free from extortion, violence and blackmail from the police, free from discrimination and free to access all health services," he said.
Not so heartwarming is this totally informed, well put together argument from imam Ahmed Bukhari.
"This is absolutely wrong," he said. "We will not accept any such law."
Well, Ahmed, you don't have much choice but to accept this law. IT IS LAW. And while you're at it, try being a little more accepting overall.
*Some other duties include getting my motorcycle license, sporting a brush cut and making a barfing gesture every time someone mentions straight relations.

Wow, I'm pleasantly surprised! It's a big step down a long, long road. But it's a step nonetheless, and I am glad to hear it.
It's huge considering where it's happening! I'm very happy about it.
