IT'S COMPLICATED!

The Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender community.

It has been an ancient taboo, a female being attracted romantically, physically or emotionally to another female, a male fancying another male, or transcending of gender. The society regards this as unnatural and unacceptable. Section 377 of the Indian penal code says that sex with the persons belonging to the same gender is punishable by law and it criminalizes any other form of intimacy other than peno-vaginal sex, being ignorant to the interests of the LGBT community.

So, the law decides who we make love to? We define something as normal when it’s common, typical or expected in the majority. But, just because something is not found in the majority, we fail to understand that being a part of a minority or an uncommon group does not mean being abnormal. The LGBT community consists of human beings just like you and me. They choose to make their personal choices on their own, decide what to do, who to fall in love with or who to have a sexual relationship with, just like all others do. But that one thing that disturbs the ‘ideal society’ is their choice of liking someone from the same sex. Think about it this way – the law accepts any kind of a relationship between a male and a female. But if a female has a sexual relationship, or even a strong liking towards another female, it’s a crime?  Its unreasonable, illogical and there is nothing that proves this kind of a relationship wrong or harmful.

The LGBT community and its interests have been a hot topic of discussion lately. The community is considered to be deteriorating the society and its cultural values whereas they seem and intend to promote the idea of a multi-cultural free society where you can decide what you want or precisely, who you want to be with, deleting the unnecessary intervention of the law in shaping minds on what is normal and socially acceptable.

Here’s what they want to say to you:

…………..

The LGBT community goes beyond the gender definitions and very much deserves to be openly accepted instead of being sidelined. Everyone should be given the freedom of their personal choices.

So take pride in what, why and who you love.
