The results of the 2024 African Youth Survey have highlighted the progressive attitudes of South African youth toward LGBTQ+ rights compared to their peers across the continent. The findings, released this week, reveal a growing recognition among young South Africans of the importance of equality and protections for LGBTQ+ individuals, setting the country apart as a leader in LGBTQ+ acceptance in Africa. Commissioned by the Ichikowitz Foundation, the survey conducted 5,604 face-to-face interviews with young people between the ages of 18-24 years, evenly divided by gender, in 16 African countries. South African youth stand out: A striking 80% of young South Africans believe that LGBTQ+ individuals deserve greater protections, a significant jump from 64% in 2020. This figure is more than double the continent-wide average of 37% (a slight decrease from 38% in 2020). Reporting hate crimes: While 56% of South African youth said they would feel comfortable reporting crimes motivated by sexual orientation, the figures are slightly higher for crimes based on religion (62%) and ethnicity (60%). Reporting gender-based violence: 60% of South African youth said they felt comfortable reporting gender-based violence, which fell five points lower than the Africa-wide average, dominated by Rwanda (96%), Kenya (90%) and Zambia (78%) Awareness of inequality: Less than half (45%) of South African respondents said that everyone is treated equally under the law in their country, versus 56% who said the same continent-wide, suggesting a greater awareness of inequality among South African youth; Despite notable strides, the findings also underscore areas where work remains. Across Africa, around 30 of the 69 countries globally that still criminalise same-sex relationships are located on the continent. Ivor Ichikowitz, Founder and Executive Chairman of the Ichikowitz Foundation, reflected on the findings, particularly as they relate to South Africa. “We have taken some critical steps forward as a country when it comes to addressing the need for greater respect for and tolerance of sexual identity, as well as the practical issue of equally protecting the rights of all South Africans. But more needs to be done – not only when it comes to awareness – but also action. In this sense, these findings are an important reminder to all of us that practicing democracy means protecting the rights and the freedoms of all South Africans and that, on this important thirtieth anniversary of our ending apartheid, we recognise that our work must only continue,” said Ichikowitz. The 2024 African Youth Survey is the third of its kind to be fielded since the Ichikowitz Foundation launched the initiative five years ago. The 16 countries surveyed this year included Botswana, Cameroon, Chad, Congo Brazzaville, Côte d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Gabon, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania and Zambia.

of course what do you u expect? after all 99.9% of SA 'blacks' are not mentally balanced. (do notice that i put the black in quote simply bc they are truly not blacks - they are more closely related to chimps). even the pics of the youths you posted, look into their eyes and you will see they all have symptoms of Disruptive behaviour and dissocial disorder possibly cause by years of physical, mental and spiritual abuse by their white masters. so i am not surprised they are inclined to lgbtq+ (which on its own is a mental disorder). they tend to accept what they see their white masters accept. my comment is not meant to be an insult sir. |

We know the correlation between HIV and gayism. It's no wonder South Africa was used as a test ground by the idiots who wanted to destroy Africa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L04VtHfkAwg They know all they had to do was brainwash the youth and let them kill themselves. It's not us they want to deceive with fake equality. |

RandDigital:You are all about attack and it shows are insecure you are. I am asking you about your South African traditions and it was an opportunity for you to show me your history, instead you went for attack. In my family, in my culture, in my community, in my ancestry, we never had a record of gayism and I am bold to let you know. Calling it homophobe is a deflection, maybe you guys did but my people believe in building families and they know that only a bastard would cut that off. This is how we were able to pass stories from one generation to the other. We celebrated life, we celebrated weddings, we gave back to earth. My people were in the medical profession to know that some mental conditions needed treatment, one of it is same sex attraction. Our community was not selfish to earth, it gave back to it. Gayism is not in our tradition, you can call it homophobia but I cannot control how you interpret our customs and traditions. Thank you. |

If you like, argue till tomorrow. Those of us who studied history know that you can lie for 100 years, it takes 1 day for it to be broken. Gayism is a mental illness. You can rewrite the condition, APA can delete it that it is not but we don't want mental illnesses with us. Thanks but no thanks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnUqDjCqg0A

trium:Remind us again how you want modern Nigeria to deal with gays. Through death, right? Your usual bloodthirsty homophobic mobs? You miserable homophobes are still to demonstrate how the measley 3% global gay population has destroyed society. |

RandDigital:If that person went through a family, a community and society, they will never end up gay. If they imported rubbish ideas like they are dumping on you in SA to go d444k yourselves and waste your lives, they may turn out gay. I asked you if it is a South African practice, you are yet to answer. You think I care about your insults ![]() RandDigital, were people from your father or mother's side gay? Did any of your grandparents share this tradition with you? I want to know Share with me your real life story like I shared with you. |

RandDigital:The bolded shows that you are not connected to your roots. You are only exposing your ignorance if you laugh at folklore and storytelling that is Africa's way of passing messages from one generation to the other. I feel sorry for you. Did you notice that I asked about your grandparents? Don't worry, you can't understand. God bless you on your journey of self discovery

Folks, find out why gay people could not donate blood and argue with the science all you want? I pray you don't waste your lives to find out the dangers of a mental illness. Let them paint it as they want. Fact remains fact. It does no good to Africans but raise selfish ingrates who want to destroy earth. |
| Re: SA Youth Most Accepting of LGBT Rights (80%), Africa (37%) - PICTURES by RandDigital(op): 4:14am On Dec 05, 2024 |
Folks, in some countries they reject or destroy black people's blood donations not because of some scientific reason, but because of prejudice. There's no god that decides who's blood is good or bad, - it's just man made rules. The same applies with gay people. Ask yourself what bad gay people have ever done to you personally. Probably nothing. So why the hate? |

HIV/Aids and LGBT nonsense are tools used by the west to control human population around the world. South Africa population is going to decline and dwindle significantly very soon. |
