February 10Feb 10 Very sad. It's odd, I've often wondered why some Muslim and Christian nations have never banned homosexual sex and others do. I looked it up a few days ago and sure enough it was the fucking Europeans. The response I got said while sodomy was banned in the Muslim religion homosexuality wasn't. But as Europeans began colonizing the world they brought their laws. So while homosexuality has never been illegal in Turkey, the British banned it in India during their rule there. It was banned in progressive Canada until 1969 with the law enthusiastically enforced in some cities and by the RCMP. In the 60s a Canadian man on getting a second conviction was sentenced to an "indefinite" period in prison which could have meant life. That spurred efforts to get the ban lifted. The Calgary police continued to harass gays well into the 90s. And the Vancouver police would label gay hate crimes as something else like road rage. In recent years they refused to charge two rednecks with assaulting a gay guy downtown despite lots of witness evidence. The victiim called his local member of the BC legislature who called the mayor who called the police chief. The police said it was all a misunderstanding, the officers were planning to turn it over to the hate crimes unit. The rednecks pled guilty and had to do some community service I think. It's disappointing that can still happen in one of the most an progressive neightbourhoods in one of the most progressive cities in Canada.
February 11Feb 11 The british. Not the europeans. Sénégal was a French colony and even after the indépendance it was a tolerant country. But Islam and anti-occidental movements have killed this tolerance. The goor jegeen (man woman in Wolof) was the figure of this tolerance.

I'm sure it's easy to blame the English but other former European colonies had similar restrictions. These type of laws are rarely enforced as they require actual proof along with the police/judiciary being simply not interested. Many of these former colonies either left old laws in place (they could easily repeal) or simply use vague public order laws to the same effect.
February 14Feb 14 And I imagine the public sex is at least partially because most of them have nowhere else they could go.

Homosexuality is not illegal in US, in Canada, in Brasil, in Argentina, in Chile,... were all european colonies. And in some countries in africa they start RIGHT now to b prohibit and persecute homosexuality. g.e. it Egypt was a more or less liberal country mentioned Homosexuality... but after the short reign of muslim brothes it was over...and it does not recover because the president now does not want to jeopardize the current peace and quiet. The only liberal african countries in that case are christian countries like South Africa. Name any "christian" country which kill gays. I think ALL country they prohibit homosexuality are muslim countries and not only in africa. And the african leader and societies themself justify there policies against homosexuality with their tradition. I am living as a european in an african country and the people here are LAUGH at left-wing woke theories that blame everything on the colonial era, because the turn to Islam and the fight against homosexuality are in reality a fight against Western woke influence. Just as we are currently seeing in the USA, Russia, and Hungary: the conservative-religious turnaround is a reaction to Western woke influence and NOT a consequence of colonial policies.

February 19Feb 19 Uganda is a christian Country and it’s really dangerous to be Gay there i think the disease is spreading in all africa
February 19Feb 19 Active Members ok. my argumentation was more like "conservative" countries with a traditional strong religion tradition vs. more liberal countries with a less strong religion tradition. so we see in Poland and Hungary and also in evangelistic states in US homophobia not only in islamic states. But at the end: its not "the europeans" they are responsible for homophobia in africa.

It is correct to say that the British adopted an anti-sodomy law for sex between men in 1861 calling it the "Offences Against The Persons Law." Not surprisingly it was then applied to virtually all Britain's then overseas Colonies. And it still remains in some. But other colonial countries - eg Portuguese colonies - had the same laws. The French colonies never had the law since it was abolished in 1791. I am not sure of the difference between homosexuality and sodomy for not all homosexuals practice sodomy. I recall a television interview with Stephen Fry interviewing a government Minister from an African country where the death penalty could be administered for homosexual behaviour. The Minister said he found sodomy abhorrent. Fry claimed he was homosexual and had never practiced sodomy. I believe the distinction came into practice when a general homosexual law was passed by the British parliament and sent to Queen Victoria for signature. She refulsed, on the basis that it was impossible for one woman to have sex with another! The Bill was returned to parliament for amendment with sodomy replacing homosexuality. As of last September there are still 65 countries where an anti-sodomy law is on the statute books. https://76crimes.com/76-countries-where-homosexuality-is-illegal/

February 20Feb 20 Active Members it was more than 100 years ago! It is a colonial perspective to believe that African countries are incapable of making conscious decisions. African countries have recently tightened their measures against homosexuals.

African countries have recently tightened their measures against homosexuals. I am not quite sure what your post means! But homosexuality in much of Africa was as stated essentially banned by the British and a few other colonial powers. What the legal situation was before those times, I'm sorry I have no idea. @Alex_Berl is in a far better position that I to discuss that than I.
February 21Feb 21 Active Members 7 hours ago, PeterRS said: Ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher, was du mit deinem Beitrag meinst! Aber Homosexualität war, wie bereits erwähnt, in weiten Teilen Afrikas von den Briten und einigen anderen Kolonialmächten praktisch verboten. Wie die Rechtslage davor aussah, weiß ich leider nicht.@Alex_Berl ist in einer weitaus besseren Position als ich, um das zu besprechen. Yes, it was forbidden by the British, but it was quite common practice before. However, after decolonization, African countries made their own laws and revived their own traditions: female genital mutilation, for example. And only in recent years have laws against homosexuals been tightened, and the death penalty partially reintroduced... this is an independent decision made by these countries and NOT a consequence of colonialism.

I fully accept you are the expert here. However, if Britain and other colonial powers had not introduced anti-sodomy laws and not only had them on these countries' statute books for around a century but also rigorously enforced them, might today's anti-gay sentiments be less? Might not those African countries which had been colonised just continue what they had been practising before the colonial powers arrived (and I frankly do not know if homosexuality was encouraged/tolerated/banned in any of these countries before then)? Just curious as to your thoughts.
February 22Feb 22 Government enforced homophobia is a voluntary policy of African governments to keep mostly uneducated population excited (sex is understood by all people) and avoiding discussions of real social and economical issues, including massive corruption.
