I don't understand the question. What are you getting at?
If homosexualism were more accepted in Nigeria, then
there would be a lot less closet Same-sex men in
heterosexual marriages living a lie. It is unfair to the
woman who is unknowingly in a sham marriage and
unfair to the man for having to keep up the pretence
to please x y and z and more importantly unfair to
the offspring.

Certainly we have heard stories of men who suddenly made volte face, claiming they were man-lover, and they have had wife and children already, in Europe and the Americas. Michael Jordan and Eddie Murphy are examples of this. So answer my question.


And why change g-a-y to gay in Nairaland.

vascey:

@Occam, there is nothing wrong with your standpoint.
As an African and a Christian, I abhor any and every act/form of homosexuality.
But as a government, the NASS should be more concerned with upholding human rights which this homosexuality bill seems to threaten. Granted!
However, everyone should understand that this is a democracy in a sovereign state- Government of the people for the people and by the people.
There is a process of law making and this has been duly followed.
From the sentiments of everyone (majority- me included) here, it is obvious that the stance of our NASS reflects the opinion of the people.
If we were to have a national referendum, you would see that majority of us would vote in favour of a law making homosexuality illegal.

That is the beauty of democracy- WE MAKE THE LAWS WE LIKE AS A PEOPLE WITHOUT UNDUE INTERFERENCE FROM ANY BLOO.DY COUNTRY OR NGO

Now, if you want to influence the law making process, there is adequate provision for lobbyists, hearings and all what not. Anyone with dissenting views should channel their complaints through those means.

There's a rather faulty premise for this debate considering our culture cultivates a brood of bigotted, indoctrinated religious fanatics who are simply in no position to actually think for themselves and advocate genuine liberty and civic rights. The civil rights movement and desegregation in America and a lot of the West were also widely opposed, particularly in the more rightist, conservative, southern hot-beds. You might as well say racism and segregation should have been condoned because a lot of people were willing to vote for it.

The more learned elements in our society should be the leaders of any emancipatory movements but their minds are clouded by religious bigotry and intolerance. We have a very long way to go.

And here comes the reprobate incapable of engaging in a logical debate without throwing around juvenile, playground abuse. Is it supposed to make you feel clever? You're sadly mistaken if you do: just makes you look petty and pathetic.

Racism is very comparable with homophobia. Homophobia discriminates against what is often more an innate compulsion rather than a casual life choice for no other reason other than bigotry borne of religious fanaticism and intolerance. Racists once defended their creed by christian belief and saw other races as lesser creatures rather than fellow humans. The very same rights racist trample on with their irrational hatred is the very same rights homophobic people trample on with their irrational hatred. It's that simple.

Poofterism is unnatural. Evident in its lack of existence in nature. In nature, you can see evidence of "race".

Racism is about discrimination based on superiority, akin to sexism, ageism, ethnicism or even fatism.

Anti-Poof is about disapproval based on morality, akin to paedophilia, necrophilia, [i]i[/i]ncest, beastility or at best polygamy.

Stop giving moronic arguments.

Wow. Keep the cussing and abuse coming. I am learning new words to use on my subordinates when they get out of line. Cretins, poofterism (that will be poofter) hmmm, send in more.

aribisala0:

sadly almost ALL posters here are devoid of reason.
already homosexuality was criminal in our laws
in the sharia states it carries a death penalty
in most of the south it carries a prison sentence
we inherited the penal code in the souther states from the BRITISH
so far who has been sent to jail or imprisoned for this

the issue here is not whether one agrees with or detests homosexuality
whether it is good or bad in the eyes of God(presumablyadultery,violation and sex with children, i hear one of the Senators has a child bride are lower cadres of SIN)
the issue is this; for every hour that the national assembly sits it costs Nigerians nearly 100 million naira. i reckon this law has cost well over 1 billion Naira
what will it change. before the law came in were men marrying each other  .
is this what people queued up in the sun to vote for
even more ridiculous is the fact that this law covers an area which is clearly within the purview of state houses of assembly

so how does this new law change the status quo
one would imagine that education equips people to think NOT react
at any rate does 14 years seem reasonable for homosexuality.
when Lucky Igbinedion Alamiesigha and Bode George are all free men?

this is the same country where women are violated wantonly
men sleep with their daughters and even impregnate them
you can now be jailed if you know people are man-lover and do NOT report
we really are a funny people
i predict this law will be used to rubbish public figures /politicians in the same way as Baba Suwe.
we have seen this in Malaysia and Zimbabwe.
people wey no know dey happy people wey know dey look

I rarely login to NL to post though I don't miss out my regular visits but your point prompted me to. Very well said of you.
I keep asking when Nigerians will stop blaming others (west) for their dooms and failures. Remember if the edge is not broken, the sapent would come in bite.
Secondly we should't do things because others does it, what does God says about homosexuality?
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be upon them Lev 20:13
Also read Romans 1:26-28 Paul condems homosexuals (including lesbians)
This is the only clear reference to lesbians in the bible.
Homosexuality has been in existence thousands of years before Christ but it was't spoken or openly declared as in now being legalize in this present world.
Homosexualixm is one of the signs of times and a very strong tool of the Anti Christ. Remember the future coming Anti Christ is an Homosexual. Go read the book of Daniel in your Bible. If not that I am on cell phone I would of drop more 25 verses of Scriptures. Whether you like it or not, God prophecies are being fulfilled non a little will fail until all are complete. If you don't believe, leave it God nor dey beg anybody. Thanks

Funny, we're all too fast to criticize. Who are we to judge? The Brit guy might just be right, or He might be wrong. But in all sincerity, if Nigeria must develop, we need to check ourselves properly. What 2Adults decide to do with their lives should not be an economy issue. Hommosexuality cannot be stopped but managed and it can only be managed when sociecity accepts them. The US, a far advanced nation than Nigeria understands the consequencies and prefered to remain silent on the issue. U guys should understand that these senators are mere hypocrits. they have never passed a bill that will be beneficial to people on the streets. This sexuality issue has been there since ADAM. These F, king guys are deceiving US with one so called MAN=Man bill. Nigeria is Sick and We all know it, just like a sick child living next to a chemist. We are so confused and dont know our ailment. Religion and Sexuality are individual rights,, lets Senate leave such matter and debate on issues like fuel subsidy, tow-gates, market monopolization, corruption, going-green, Generators importation, PHCN, failed contracts, substandard good, NAFDAC, NHS, Security, Education development. I trust that GEJ will be silent on the matter because it makes no-sense at all only if we look deep. On the contrary, everyone is entitled to his/her opinion, but i think, the running or ban on gay marriages will not give me a credit alert on my blackberry, or reduce our everyday Nigeria stress, So let it be.

You may wish to desist from commenting on what you don't have a clue about and exposing your ignorance. There are several documented cases of homosexuality among animals. Even if we wrongly assumed there wasn't, I don't understand how the behaviour of animals should form acceptable standards for human behaviour. There are counless things humans do which animals don't do starting from religion and belief in a deity.

Comparing homosexuality to paedophilia and bestiality is idiotic, vacuous reasoning deserving mockery. Those are perversions of sex that violate consent in one of the sexual parties. Paedophilia is no different from a man molesting a female toddler sexually. I'm defending the right of 2 adults to engage in a consensual relationship irrespective of sexual preference with the key word being consensual.

No law should ever be passed based on subjective notions of what constitutes morality. You've proven yourself to be an ignorant slowpoke.

No wise society makes laws adopted from a religious creed. Religion should always be seperate from state, else it violates the rights of non-believers. What the bible says about homosexuality is completely irrelevant. All that matters is one's inalienable civic rights which our inhuman homophobic laws violate. Your opposition to homosexuality should be personal, not  institutionalized in persecuting innocent citizens who haven't wronged you in any way.

If you believe your religious conviction opposes it, then it should suffice that perpetrators are condemned to hell forever. Their earthly life should concern no one. Like I said before, I thought christians should be the persecuted ones?

I can't believe anyone can be comparing black and Pan African struggles with pro-gay lobby for equal rights. Equal rights to do what exactly? Legally accept a few people's excessive and deviant indulgence? Let's make thesame argument for people that practice bestiality, paedophilia and so on, how are they or their arguments different from homosexuals'?
How dare anyone insinuate that Nigerians are ignorant of the issues surrounding samesex cohabitation all because we have wholeheartly rejected such practice in our country. Accepting same-sex cohabitation and acceding to their demands for equal rights is not in anyway an indication of intelligence or a developed society; it only shows how subversive and manipulative samesex lobbyists can be and the general moral decadence of western society.
Is it not hypocritical and selective amnesia that thesame West and her governments that criminalize polygamy(which is very well between two consenting adults and does not hurt anyone-references pro-gay lobbyists used to make in their effort to make their case) can arrogantly sit on the judgemental thrown and parrot their nonsense about fundamental human rights? Is polygamy in anyway dangerous than the despicable practice of homosexuality in the full glare of the public and with full legal backing to support such a dirty lifestyle.
I am not a fan of the Nigerian legislature myself but let no one try to make it look like they should turn a blind eye to the issue, and pass it as a diversion or a way for the legislators to garner integrity and support from the "gullible Nigerian public". Such argument is lazy in its analysis of the issues and overlooks the fact that the issue homosexuality and gay-rights, lately, has been a burning issue in not just Nigeria but many African countries. Is it not obvious that these gay-right activists and their lobbyists have penetrated a lot of countries and subdue their government with the help of the hypocritical and docile western governments? Little wonder they say these days that homosexuals are made and not born, all you need to do is look at the society and take your count- many of these deviants are impressionable and indulgent people who have been nurtured by their environment and decadent society at large. There is no such thing as gay gene or anyone being born with homosexual gene, nature has not gone that bad on anyone, it is just what we want to allow. Every one at some point struggle with different desires-some good and some bad-it does not mean those of us that choose to conform to the norms are any greater humans or those that willingly choose to succumb to the desires are born gay.
I, personally do not have problems with homosexuals as long as they keep their very weird lifestyle in the closet of their private life, fine by me but to push the boundaries and start asking for some recognitions and right to openly assault other people's sense of decency and morals by advocating we recognize their right to live the way they want in our society is tantamout to asking for the KKK treatment cos we are "gon' give it to em the way they wont like it up their ass".
As for the Britons talking like Nigeria is an annex of the british colony, let them parrot their nonsense to china, iran, russia, the saudis and co. . The worst they can do is talk the talk, they need Nigeria more than Nigeria needs them, infact, the relationship has been one-sided-with overbloated loans, loan clones given to us to keep us locked up in a web of debt who wants that kind of aids. Scheeew, let them go to hell, Nigeria is a sovereign state.

Your comparisons and analogies are wide off the mark because most of what you've compared with homosexuality violates the rights of a party while homosexuality is a private indulgence of the "deviants" which affect no one. It simply isn't anyone's f%#king business. Why not live your life, chart your own path to salvation and live others to chart their own courses. Why is that so difficult for some people to comprehend: the right to free will?

Hence you missed a solid point forwarded by rhymz: that polygamy (which is legally discriminated against in the West) also involves relationship between consenting adults. A clear case of double-standards. Of course, free-will without (the concept of) limits isn't truly free. It would lead to a disordered society.

I also need to make it clear that there's a difference between advocating homosexuality and defending homosexual rights. I'm not defending the morality of homosexuality in any way but the right to homosexuality if preferred.

Well the majority agree with you on the immorality but disagree with you about not banning it. So they banned it.

You have the right to be an homo[i]s[/i]exual, but you don't have the right to practice homosexuality (especially in public).
