Uganda to UN: Gays Recruit, Are A Threat To Our Children
private choice. There should be no promotion of those practices.”
—A passage from Uganda’s submission to the United Nations’ Universal Periodic Review, which requires member states to report on their human-rights record.

OK, look, I can sort of understand bigots thinking that gays recruit–it’s preposterous, but it’s pretty conventional fear-mongering. They don’t have our experiences, and they view their experiences with sexual orientation as “neutral” or “normal” so it’s easy enough for them to think of sexual orientation as something you “add-on” to a “normal” person. Transgender people are a harder sell, but gender, like sexual orientation, isn’t tangible, so I suppose the same fear-mongering rules apply.
Once you suggest that intersex people are recruiting, though, you’ve pretty much lost any shred of credibility you might have had even with the wingnuttiest of mingnuts.
“Pssst. Kid. Yeah, you. Wanna buy a 46,XY/47,XXY chromosome?”

Uganda should not a cent in international aid. If they have the money to persecute the LGBT community then quite clearly they have plenty of money.

Give me one good reason why we should not just bomb that wretched “nation” out of existence and take over what’s left? It was good enough for Nazi Germany.

Somehow I don’t think this ‘we recruit’ idea is authentically African… Now I wonder where they got the idea from? Any ideas?
[Tnx for pickup Queerty]

Iraq.
If that doesn’t register, then keep in mind that in bombing it out of existence, the bombs will kill more gays than Uganda does.

when and where were YOU all recruited?
i was recruited when i was taken to see a production of the musical South Pacific when i was 9. Men singing and dancing dressed as sailors. SOLD.

@Little Kiwi: Recruited? Hell, I was gay before I was born, probably because my mom watched Dynasty when she was pregnant with me.
@B: Then we get the gays out first, then bomb them.
As for Iraq, Uganda is not part of the Middle East, and bungling yahoo Donald Rumsfeld isn’t secretary of defense anymore.
But if left up to the UN, Uganda would be on the Human Rights Commission.
