"Human Rights Watch has detailed how laws forbidding consensual homosexual conduct were introduced into countries that had been colonized by Europeans. The group says that more than 80 countries around the world still criminalize consensual homosexual conduct between adult men, and often between adult women.
These laws invade privacy and create inequality. They relegate people to inferior status because of how they look or who they love. They degrade people's dignity by declaring their most intimate feelings "unnatural" or illegal. They can be used to discredit enemies and destroy careers and lives. They promote violence and give it impunity. They hand police and others the power to arrest, blackmail, and abuse. They drive people underground to live in invisibility and fear.
The group says that more than half those countries have these laws because they once were British colonies. Other countries were also affected by their colonial past, and some former British colonies were affected differently, but Human Rights Watch looked most closely at countries whose law was modeled on a law passed in India under British rule known as Section 377.
According to the Report called "This Alien Legacy" which was released last December:
Colonial legislators and jurists introduced such laws, with no debates or "cultural consultations," to support colonial control. They believed laws could inculcate European morality into resistant masses. They brought in the legislation, in fact, because they thought "native" cultures did not punish"perverse" sex enough. The colonized needed compulsory re-education in sexual mores. Imperial rulers held that, as long as they sweltered through the promiscuous proximities of settler societies, "native" viciousness and "white" virtue had to be segregated: the latter praised and protected, the former policed and kept subjected."
LOL !! Man ah talk bout 666 when is really 377 !
Wha Bob seh.. Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery....
