Police Turn Backs Suicidal Indian Lesbians
That Ain't Fresh...
Remember India's most famous love-lorn lesbians, 21-year old Meena and 22-year old Bundkunwar: the labia-loving ladies who asked police to help them get married in spite of legal and familial hurdles?
Well, after a week of intense deliberation, police officials have - shocker, shocker - refused to heed their calls. Speaking with reporters, police superintendent R.S. Nayak said:
We told girls last week that police need some time to know the legal aspect of gay marriages and they were sent back to their homes. Now we have told them it is not the job of the police department.He also said that the girls' families are looking for new and inventive ways to squash their love.
The girls, meanwhile, insist they'll off themselves if their love's not recognized. Hmmm, sure it sounds romantic and all, ladies, but we think you should pretend to be "cured" of your sapphic leanings and then slip into the night to live your love as nomads. Suicide pacts are so 16th century.

Was watching a documentary on TV early early this morning on variant sexualities including Thailand's "Lady Boys." One of the segments was about a pair of gay men in India who are both married and, Indian fashion, live with their extended families but also have a residence together where they have had their "real" lives together for 11 years.
I realize that Indian women would not have the same kind of freedom to move around but it might be the only solution beyond moving to Europe.
Your article is disgusting. To make light of both suicide and to make snarky comments about a relationship about which you clearly know nothing makes you look not only ignorant, but completely lacking in compassion.
You don't have to support gay rights, hell, you're not even obliged to care whether these two girls kill themselves. But to try to be witty about it? That's appalling. Your humor? So 1950s.
Hello, very good site.
