Re: g_b remember sections 388 and 389 IPC
Aditya, you are brilliant!

Throughout its history S.377 - and similar laws across the world - has been used extremely successfully to extort money from gay men who are too scared of prosecution under the law to fight back. This is exactly what we are now seeing. From across the country cases are coming of queer people being blackmailed or harassed by threat or sometimes the actual use of S.377. Just today I have heard the most startling case where a businessman gave Rs10 lakhs because he got a letter saying that the person sending it had video evidence of him having sex with other men. One reaction that such stories sometimes get is that people who give in to blackmail deserve what they get - that (a) they should not have been stupid enough to get into the situation in the first place and (b) they should not give in, but call the blackmailer's bluff. Blackmail depends on the victim being afraid, and if you are not, it can't work. But saying this doesn't allow for the extreme loneliness that drives people to take risks, and yes, stupid risks too at times. Yes, you should be careful who you pick up and where and what you do, but its always easier to say this in hindsight. And it is also easy to be courageous when its not happening to you. When you are the one who opens an email or letter and finds not just the threat of your privacy being exposed, but the knowledge that someone is malign enough to want to do it, you can feel the bottom falling out of your world. This still does not mean one should give in to blackmail. It may be tempting to just give the money and hope it all goes away, but it never does. Blackmail is an addiction, and quite lucrative too, and blackmailers very often repeatedly keep coming back for more. And even if they don't the victim is always afraid that they, or someone else, will. So if this situation happens to you, or to someone you know, the first thing to tell them is to find a way not to be afraid. If they have family from who they fear exposure, they should ask themselves one hard fact - in the long run will the family mind more that one of them is gay or that he is giving away Rs10 lakhs, and probably even more over time. Whatever people might feel about homosexuality, they usually don't want to lose a lot of money! The second thing to tell yourself, or them, is that S.377 is not easy to prosecute. This is why the police actually does not use it very much, but prefers to use the threat of it, or more easily implementable and vague laws like 'obscene conduct' in public or drinking without a permit (which is what most people who are arrested at parties are usually prosecuted under, which is why responsible party goers get permits, and party organisers arrange for them). Proving S.377 without a doubt really requires a medical examination and this is not going to be easy to organise. Video evidence might count too - though of course there are all the arguments about video being tampered with which politicians routinely trot out! But this is one good argument not to record yourself having sex, however much this turns you on! At least one S.377 case which has been going on for a while involves recording that a husband made with his male lover which his wife got her hands on. And finally, we actually have protection from the same source that threatens us - the Indian Penal Code. Buried away in IPC are two sections, S.388 and S.389 which state that attempt to blackmail using sections of IPC as a threat, is as much of a crime as going against those sections of IPC! This perhaps recalls some residual wisdom among people, like Lord Macauley who drew up IPC, that the law can be misused and it is best to provide remedy against it. This is what Sections 388 and 389 do, and they specifically mention S.377. S.388 says that whoever extorts money by putting someone in fear of being accused of a grave crime is liable to be punished severely, and S.389 says that whoever even threatens someone with a view to extortion, will be punished severely, and both of them end by saying and, if the offence be punishable under section 377 of this Code, may be punished with 1[imprisonment for life]. It is really quite remarkable and worth reading:Section 388 in The Indian Penal CodeSection 389 in The Indian Penal Code Somehow in drafting IPC, the framers did acknowledge that S.377 in particular was liable to be abused, and hence they tried to provide some protection. Of course, the best solution is not to prosecute people for consensual same sex relations, but at least this attempt at balance does exist. The problem is that these are obscure sections of IPC and few

India Today Online New Delhi, December 26, 2013 | UPDATED 12:58 IST
The year 2013 was the year that the LGBT communities got a slap in the
face with a Supreme Court ruling that upheld section 377 and
criminalised gay sex.
What ensued was protests not just in India,
but also abroad among the Indian LGBT communities. Many people took on
the ruling on social networking sites.
In the video Imran answers some very silly questions about gay people with a
healthy dose of satire.
Continuing
the tirade against the Supreme Court's ruling, All India Bakchod, a
comedy podcast site, released a video on December 25 starring Bollywood
actor Imran Khan. (SCROLL DOWN TO SEE THE VIDEO)
Imran answers questions such as 'I heard AIDS was invented by gay people, is it
true?'.
In
the nearly 6-minute long video, titled Imran Khan vs Homophobia,
Imran takes care of some common misconceptions about gay people with
some extremely satirical answers.
Understandably enough, the questions are enough to make you laugh, but they
leave Imran wondering.
{mosimage}
Questions
like why can't gay people like ... Un-gay? and I heard AIDS was
invented by gay people, is it true? and How do gay people have
coffee? and other misconceptions and vague ideas get put down with some
typical Imran Khan expressions and satirical answers.

Re: g_b The bad sex award goes to gay Indian men
Agree whole heartedly with the author. Found a lover EXACTLY like this from this group, tried very hard and tolerated him for THREE years. Glad to be rid of him when I finally came to my senses and realised how much I was being exploited in the name of love, including financial exploitation. Hope Ashley Tellis' letter at least gets readers to think. All the Best and thank you, Ashley!

I have to report that I have never had decent sex here, and I don't think I ever will. Apart from the fact that Indians in general are lousy at sex and have all sorts of weird hang-ups about it, gay sex here has a particular set of sicknesses associated with it. So, Indian men who want to and do have gay sex also have no qualms about being disgusted by it and doing it badly. Culture legitimises that. Frequently, one comes across men online who will tell you that they don't kiss. They want to be sucked, they only want to f--- you and, increasingly, want to be rimmed too. They say this with no irony and no self-reflexivity whatsoever and actually get offended when you tell them to go find a dog or f--- a wall instead. Or when you tell them that something is wrong when they want you to lick their a--- but they won't lick your face. Or speak of how important kissing is to sex. `Tops' (by which is meant the most pathetic imitation of missionary heterosexual positions) don't suck, of course. They only want to be sucked. This is a given. Men on websites call themselves `pure tops'. They are really anxious that you come nowhere near their a--- and, of course, are not interested at all in examining that anxiety. They expect bottoms not only to be submissive and meek but have no penises, no orgasms, no needs, no sexual desires other than to fulfil the desires of the tops. Anal sex is a brutal affair and many of my gay friends have ruptured anuses, fissures, and damaged sphincters, and seem to take it as par for the course. High on alcohol, poppers, hash and other stuff, `bottoms' seem not to care about their own bodies, or indeed about sex as something pleasurable, gentle and meaningful. It is only about being stuffed and pounded and hence the need for all the external intoxicants.

When we refuse bad sex and fight for the right to good sex.

Dear Mr. Tintin, The official place to procure a one day or any other permit in MUMBAI is near Old Customs House, Horniman Circle, Mumbai. I am really not sure how much a one day permit would cost, but it would be less than one hundred rupees. Please do keep necessary identification handy. Passport, driving licence, MTNL latest paid phone bill, Income Tax Permanent Account Number (P.A.N.) Card, Rent receipt, Voter Identity Card etc. are some of the documents accepted by the people issuing permits. I do not know what the exact name of the office is, but either others on this list will provide more valuable information in detail or you can check in some govt. office in that building or from people hanging about aimlessly outside.

Is this the long way? she asked. And the guide said: Yes, and the way is hard. And you will be old before you reach the end of it. But the end will be better than the beginning.” But the young mother was happy, and she would not believe that anything could be better than these years. So she played with her children, and gathered flowers for them along the way, and bathed them in the clear streams; and the sun shone on them, and the young Mother cried, Nothing will ever be lovelier than this. Then the night came, and the storm, and the path was dark, and the children shook with fear and cold, and the mother drew them close and covered them with her mantle, and the children said, Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near, and no harm can come to us. And the morning came, and there was a hill ahead, and the children climbed and grew weary, and the mother was weary. But at all times she said to the children, A little patience and we are there. So the children climbed, and when they reached the top they said, Mother, we would not have done it without you. And the mother, when she lay down at night looked up at the stars and said, This is a better day than the last, for my children have learned fortitude in the face of hardness. Yesterday I gave them courage. Today, I have given them strength. And the next day came strange clouds which, darkened the earth, clouds of war and hate and evil, and the children groped and stumbled, and the mother said: “Look up. Lift your eyes to the light. And the children looked and saw above the clouds an everlasting glory! , and it guided them beyond the darkness. And that night the Mother said, This is the best day of all, for I have shown my children God. And the days went on, and the weeks and the months and the years, and the mother grew old and she was little and bent. But her children were tall and strong, and walked with courage. And when the way was rough, they lifted her, for she was as light as a feather; and at last they came to a hill, and beyond they could see a shining road and golden gates flung wide. And mother said: I have reached the end of my journey. And now I know the end is better than the beginning, for my children can walk alone, and their children after them. And the children said, You will always walk with us, Mother, even when you have gone through the gates. And they stood and watched her as she went on alone, and the gates closed after her. And they said: We cannot see her, but she is with us still. A Mother like ours is more than a memory. She is a living presence. MAY WE NEVER TAKE OUR MOTHERS FOR GRANTED.
g_b Hooker in Las Vegas
A guy is walking the strip in Las Vegas and a fantastic-looking Vegas hooker catches his eye. He strikes up a conversation and eventually asks the hooker, How much do you charge? The Hooker replies, It starts at $500 for a hand-job. The guy says,$500 dollars! For a hand-job! Holy crap! No hand-job is worth that kind of money! The hooker says, Do you see that Denny's on the corner? Yes. Do you see the Denny's about a block further down? Yes. And beyond that, do you see that third Denny's? Yes. Well, says the hooker, smiling invitingly, I own those..And I own them because I give a hand-job that's worth $500. So the guy says, What the hell? You only live once.. I'll give it a try.. They retire to a nearby motel. A short time later, the guy is sitting on the bed realizing that he has just experienced the hand-job of a lifetime, worth every bit of $500. He is so amazed, he says, I suppose a blow-job is $1,000? The hooker replies, $1,500. I wouldn't pay that for a blow-job! The hooker replies, Step over here to the window, big boy. Do you see that casino just across the street? I own that casino outright. And I own it because I give a blow-job that's worth every cent of $1,500. The guy, basking in the afterglow of that terrific hand-job, decides to put off the new car for another year or so and says, Sign me up. Ten minutes later, he is sitting on the bed more amazed than before.He can scarcely believe it but he feels he truly got his money's worth. He decides to dip into the retirement savings for one glorious and unforgettable experience. He asks the hooker, How much for some pussy? The hooker says, Come over here to the window, I want to show you something. Do you see how the whole city of Las Vegas is laid out before us: All those beautiful lights, gambling palaces, and shows?Damn! the guy says, in awe, You own the whole city? No, the hooker replies, but I would... if I had a pussy.

Sandeep has even been booked under section 377, among other sections. Should Sandeep be punished by the law because of he indulged in sodomy or all those other offenses? To the mind of the common man his unnaturalness will hold sway, perhaps with a conclusion like, these sodomizers are all the same - pests. What do you think?

Through the web site, she seemed to have met the perfect partner in Sandeep R Chamadia – a divorcee whose wife cheated on him, and a successful banker working as operational risk manager with a leading bank. The couple tied the knot amid much fanfare on February 16, 2010. But Rita's dreams of a happily-ever-after came crashing down within days. The perfect husband, the 35-yearold has alleged, turned out to be a porn addict, who showed her obscene videos and forced her into performing unnatural sexual acts with him. The obscene acts were filmed and frequent dowry demands were made. All forms of resistance from her were dealt with physical and mental abuse, and threats of making the film public. On February 6, ten days before their second wedding anniversary, she had lodged a complaint against Chamadia with the Charkop police station. The police have arrested the banker and booked him under Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) which deals with unnatural offences. After Chamadia's anticipatory bail plea was rejected by the Sessions Court in Dindoshi as well as Bombay High Court, the Borivali magistrate court on Saturday sent him to police custody. The Charkop resident has also been booked under IPC sections 498-A and 406 (causing physical, verbal and mental abuse, and Prohibition of Dowry Act respectively), Rita's lawyers Prashant Parasurampuria and Milan Desai said. After the FIR was registered, Sandeep and his parents applied for anticipatory bail on the grounds that Rita is falsely accusing them and used to constantly nag him and his old parents. While the Dindoshi Sessions court allowed bail to his father, it rejected the plea of Sandeep and his mother, who has been accused of seeking dowry. Sandeep then went missing but was arrested on Friday afternoon, and a Borivili court sent him to police custody. `HE LIED ABOUT FIRST WIFE' Rita in her complaint (copy available with Mumbai Mirror) stated that Chamadia had lied to her about the cause of his first divorce. He had said that his first wife was involved with another guy. When he came to know the truth, they amicably parted ways. However two months ago, the complaint said, Rita met the parents of the first wife. They told me that Sandeep was a porn addict by nature and he used to forcefully perform explicit sex acts with their daughter too. He also tortured her physically and mentally when she refused. They had to pay him money for rescuing their daughter from this monster. He also started blackmailing her by threatening to upload a film if she refused. They said that they couldn't let their daughter suffer any longer and mutually settled the matter, Rita stated in her complaint. The complaint also stated that Rita's parents had given the Chamadia family Rs 4 lakh and valuables, including gold, worth Rs 27 lakh as dowry. Rita further alleged that after the wedding, her in-laws made additional demands of Rs 8 lakh as dowry, which were met by her parents. But even that wasn't enough. On February 2 , the complaint stated, Rita's in-laws threw her out of their Charkop residence, following which she filed a complaint with the Charkop police on February 6. Rita said that at first she lodged a complaint for mental and physical harassment in the matrimonial home because she `could not muster the courage' to give

Re: g_b FW: Spanish man and Indian man trying to get married in Spain
Sir, The best advice on this subject would be the reply from some qualified advocate on the group, but maybe, perhaps, I might be able to help by suggesting a trick or two. India is a diverse country and so divided, that it would be possible to play this trick and get away with it. Let us suppose your partner is from Assam, North India. You COULD publish the news in some Tamilian newspaper in South India! You would have published the news in an Indian newspaper, some small time paper would publish it because they are getting money for the ad and they are not bothered about what happens in another country because you are getting married in Spain, not India and thereby you are not violating any Indian Law AND the South Indians would be least bothered about what is happening in Assam! Similarly, if he is Gujrati, you publish in some newspaper in Bengal! Those who know him will not see the news and those who do not know him will be too far away to take the trouble to make a trip just to harass him. As for the parents, the reason they are asking is to make sure that he is not married in India. Well, maybe they will accept an affidavit filed by an advocate before a notary public or something but you need to check with an advocate on this. Wish you both all the best! Regards and God Bless!

I´m a Spanish living in Spain and my boyfriend is an Indian living in India, we met when I was living in India in 2009. Last year we decided to get married and started the process: it has taken us exactly one year to get all the documents we were asked, and last week I went to the council (or Civil Registry) in Barcelona to hand in the application and all the documents, validated with the Apostille de la Haye in India, and officially translated into Spanish, but they refused to take our application, saying that we now need to get two more documents: my boyfriends parents signature for certification of his marital status and a proof of our marriage being published in two Indian newspapers everyday during one month. But the reality is that none of these is possible: the first one because his parents do not agree to this marriage and the second one because in India our marriage is not valid because of being two men, and therefore no Indian newspaper is going to announce our marriage in their marriages section. Moreover, I believe that if we gave Indian newspapers details about our marriage, they could use it to produce news criticizing it, and exposing my boyfriend to a dangerous situation (it has happened earlier this year that a tv channel in India exposed gay people publicly and they ended up trying to commit suicide due to social oppression). I would like to mention that my boyfriend is 31 years old (he is and adult, and so am I); the reason why they ask for his parents signature is because I think there used to be a tradition in hindu and islamic marriages where both families used to sign for the wedding, but as far as I know that it is not a requirement, nowadays the Affidavit (Indian document that states marital status of the person who is going to get marriage) is signed in front of a notary by the person who is going to get married (well I guess you know about all this), and we have got that, we actually had it done by a notary in India who is specialized in Affidavits. Do you have any idea of what we can do? Thank you very much Asier Reguera

Whenever I was in Mumbai he used to meet me 2 times a week , rest he used to give me all sort of excuses. But later I found-out he-used to go with others. Well I told him I wouldnt mind going wd others but tell me wd whom he goes. He used to swear upon his parents Jesus Christ ( He is a Cristian boy) that since he started wd me never been wd any. It was a lie bcz I exposed his lie twice. He use to justify a lie with 1000 lies. Still i was very much accommodating to keep him happy. I knew he had lot of problems in his life. He was a hard core bottombeen with many even foreigners before becoming friendly wd me. He was living wd his relatives they used to take care of his daily food. Rest I was supporting.

Dear Critics of Aditya Bondopadhyay, I do not know Aditya personally, I have never met him, I have only read his writings on this list and, if you gentlemen go through the archives, you will read that I too have been at the receiving end of fire and brimstone from Mr. Aditya. But the fact remains that he is indeed a brilliant lawyer and superb in defence of gays and splendid in arguments of gay issues. A sword has to be sharp, gentlemen. The head of a spear has to be sufficently pointed to kill. Otherwise, these are not weapons, just oarnaments. I feel that, instead of driving this person away (not that he is going to be driven away by protests), it would be better to coax, to cajole, to persuade. Even hurling abuses is not going to work, he will lash out against anger with anger - as anyone including myself would. It sometimes happens that all members on this list are not as highly educated, not as intelligent and not as mature; some are even just kids! I am fifty three and so eighteen year olds are kids for me! Such people may get dissuaded and frightened away and so we could collectively request Shri Aditya to be more polite and considerate and maybe, just perhaps maybe, there is a chance that he will listen. We need an angry young man, who is angry against gay hostile and gay intolerant people, not against us! At the same time, this person is an asset not worth losing! And then there are the instances of people whose sentiments have been hurt by what he said about Gandhiji or Baba Ramdev. I had once been told, God does not need devotees, devotees need God. So also, if something is said about someone you respect, instead of being upset, you can take it that that person does not need you to defend him, he can defend himself and also you! And maybe you can ignore such comments instead of silencing those who make them! This is a free and democratic country and the freedom of speech is granted to everyone and this gay bombay list also follows those time honoured traditions. Let us co-operate with the Moderator and allow all to say what they want to. Take what is worth taking and with a kind and gentle breath, blow the rest away! Let us think it over!

I was talking to someone I know, a person who is normally quite lively and chirpy but who sounded rather down and depressed this morning.

The lady observed some cockroaches near the sink and grabbed a can of insect repellent and sprayed it. Near the gas stove, which was burning. There was an explosion and in no time the poor woman was covered in flames, sustained 65% burns. Her husband rushed in, tried to douse the flames and his clothes too caught fire. The husband is still in hospital, in the burns ward, still unaware that his wife has succumbed, dead on arrival. I've been trying to gather some information on the inscet repellents such as Hit, Mortein etc. Are they flammable? I guess they are, and the nano-particles spread extremely rapidly. Did the poor lady realise the hazard involved? Obviously not! Spread the word around who knows? Sujit

Cool reply from Dr. Mahinder Watsa in today's edition of Mumbai Mirror. The virgin says that His sperms were in large quantity and smelling very bad - he obviously refers to the quantity of semen of his 32 year old partner. My question is, how many of us feel that semen smells bad when we take it in our mouths? Does it smell bad only if the partner is either unclean or carries some sexually transmitted disease?

I have a friend who is 34 years old and unmarried. I performed oral sex on him last night. It was the first time I indulged in sex with anybody. He exploded sperm in my mouth. Even after I removed it, a lot of thick sperms were left. I am sure lots have gone inside my mouth too. I have read it is safe but I just want to know from you if it is okay. His sperms were in large quantity and smelling very bad. He wants to do it without condoms. I hope you understand. Swallowing ejaculation fluid from a person you can trust will cause you no harm. Whether you should is your business.

According to sources the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Srinagar witnessed one of the strangest cases in recent times that has baffled the police and the judiciary alike. The story goes like this. A young man from Kashmir got closely involved with a man hailing from Germany. The two soon became very close and 'developed' homosexual relation. Over the period of time the two were 'together', the German 'beloved' gave numerous gifts to his Kashmiri lover running into lakhs of rupees. Such was the level of intimacy between the gay couple that the German wanted to marry the boy from Kashmir 'legally'. Perhaps informed that homosexuality was still a crime in India, the German then decided to do the unbelievable. Thinking that he could have a happy life with his Kashmiri boyfriend the German decided to go in for a sex change operation. The sex change operation is an extremely costly affair in European countries with average bill of over 1-2 million. The German claims that he spent around Rs.30 lacs on the surgery. Despite the costs and the risks, the German reportedly went in for the operation. The operation was successful and he came out of operation theater as a woman. Thinking that now he (she) could marry her long time boyfriend, the German boy turned girl came all the way to Kashmir, only to get the shock of her life when the boyfriend refused to marry her. Shocked and numbed by the volte face the German has decided to fight back. She hired a lawyer in Srinagar to seek justice. In the petition filed before the CJM, the German has reportedly accused the Kashmiri boy of fraud cheating and even rape. But the counsel for the Kashmiri boy argued that basic petition was flawed as the sexuality of the German is not clear. I told the judge that it was a case of two *** les. If it is front **le then the case falls under section 376 o IPC and if it is the back **le then section 377 of IPC will apply. I told the judge to decide on which lines should I based my arguments on, said advocate Bilal Ahmed. He added that since the two were having a live in relationship, charges of rape do not apply and that the German should file a civil suit instead. According to sources the police too is confused as to on what lines should they file their case report. Considering the German was a man and now is a woman, we will wait for observations of the court, a police official said.

For those of you who don't know, I'm biologically female, identify as Gender-fluid, and 32yrs old. I have a very strange predicament. I don't know if I rightly belong to this group, or for that matter, what kind of queer-identity I should ascribe to. I am bisexual but that's not why I'm here. I find myself extremely attracted to the concept of being gay. Not female-lesb. I mean male-gay. I feel like a gay boy in a woman's body most of the time. This poses a bit of a problem as obviously no gay man would be able to reciprocate that!! Ideally I would like to eventually end up in an open r'ship with a bi-dude. But most bi-men DON'T TELL WOMEN they're bi !! Which takes me back to square one. Anyway, I'm unsure of what my role here is, or whether I should pursue contact with people in GB and at GB events. I'm unsure of whether my presence at GB meets would be out of place at best or unwanted at worst. Most of my friends are straight, and though that's fine with me, it leaves out a whole aspect of myself when I relate to them. I don't identify with lesbians at all ! What would you all suggest I do? I would really want to know what are your honest opinions in this situation, and whether you think it is awkward or alright for me to be here. Love, T

The day is not far when there will be no girls to marry and we'll all become gays. That might happen, he said, while trying to drive home the point that there should be no threat to girl child. Addressing the 'India Water Forum 2011' in New Delhi, in the presence of Vice-President Hamid Ansari and his cabinet colleague Salman Khursheed, Abdullah said the number of males is growing and women are getting eliminated. Census 2011 report recently revealed a worrying trend in the child sex ratio, indicating that a strong bias against the girl child still persists. In 2001, there were 927 female children aged 0-six years for every 1,000 male children of the same age. In 2011, this dropped to 914 females for every 1,000 males, according to the provisional results of Census 2011. Keeping in mind the kind of question that you have asked and the person who you have mentioned and his talent and dignity, I would not like to dignify it with a response, Congress spokesperson Manish Tiwari said when asked about Abdullah's remarks. He, at the same time, shared Abdullah's concerns about the declining sex ratio saying it was a serious issue on which the society should contemplate. -- If the comment is not made with humor in mind, it seems uneducated and homophobic.

They had also called up some of he guys and asked them leading questions on their sexual practices under the pretense of being another user and prospective date from planet Romeo. My organisation, Adhikaar had at that time sent a legal notice to TV9 detailing the violations that they have committed under the NBA guidelines and asked for an apology. Wide publicity was given in both the media and in forums like Facebook and on the internet to this notice. The community mobilised and held protests against TV9 offices in many cities including Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Kolkata. TV9 had an allowed period of 7 days within which they were to have responded to the notice sent to them from Adhikaar. They failed and/or neglected to do so. We had therefore set a deadline of end March to file a complaint before The News Broadcasting Standards Authority against TV9. It now transpires that after the publicity that was given to the matter post our notice and protests against TV9, the The News Broadcasting Standards Authority took suo-moto cognizance of the matter and sent a notice to TV9. It thereafter proceeded against TV9 and has now censured TV9 to pay a fine of Rs.1,00,000 and broadcast an apology in prime time both in English and in Telugu. NBA has determined that TV9 has violated the following codes of ethics and broadcasting standards by publishing the story “Gay culture rampant in Hyderabad” Clause 5: Sex and Nudity Clause 6: Privacy Clause 9: Sting operations View the news of the order at : http://gaysifamily.com/2011/03/24/tv9-pays-the-price/ It is a victory for the community and and we all should celebrate. But at the same time we all should now also become more vigilant that no such violation is done by any other media house in the future, and if they do, we protest and we bring bring it to the notice of the NBSA. 3 cheers to all who worked and protested. We came together as a community and we won. Congratulations..!! Best to all, Aditya Bondyopadhyay

Byerly Some gays have felt more comfortable 'coming out' about their sexuality since the Delhi High Court decriminalized consensual homosexual activity in 2009 Gay rights activists in India are seeking broader acceptance for homosexual men, lesbians and transgenders that goes beyond legal protection against criminal prosecution. But change is slow to come. It was just in July 2009, when the Delhi High Court repealed Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, the law that made same sex activity illegal in India. Homosexual men, lesbians and transgenders in New Delhi are marching to the beat of a new era. Since the Delhi High Court decriminalized consensual homosexual activity between adults, some gays have felt more comfortable coming out about their sexuality and attending functions like this gay pride parade in New Delhi late last year. For Sambhav Sharma, the repeal of the law gave him the courage to tell his grandmother that he is gay. To show their support, family members joined him in the parade. This is the consequence of Article 377. Because of that, I was able to convince my family to come down here and celebrate my 'Azadi,' my freedom, he said. Many gay men and women in India are not as comfortable as Sharma acknowledging their sexuality. In a conservative society like India, homosexuality is still widely taboo. That is why these parade participants wear masks to hide their identities. Anjali Gopalan is the founder and executive director of the Naz Foundation, a non-profit organization that works on HIV/AIDS and sexual health issues in New Delhi. I think the battle now is the battle for rights. The battle has to be for the right to marriage, the right to adopt, the right to inherit - rights which citizens of this country take for granted. And when I say citizens of this country, obviously the people who are taking it for granted is the heterosexual community because gay people don't have these rights. That's the long battle now. Gopalan says that even in metropolitian areas, some parents think they can change their homosexual children - make them heterosexual - with electric shock treatments. Others believe homosexuality can be cured in some way. That is what teacher Rajendra Narula believes. He attended a recent event in Delhi called Gay Rights are Human Rights. I think it's possible to treat homosexuality. It's just a matter of taking some hormones or counseling and it's absolutely correctable, he said. Gopalan says Narula and others who consider homosexuality an illness, or wrong, need to be taught that is not true. And both she and Sharma say as India develops they hope the government will give more rights to homosexuals. This is just the beginning. Everywhere we want our legal rights. That can be achieved by the recognition that the government will give us. And it will happen.

Equating the two gentlemen on the score of English is patently flawed. Mr. Bondyopadhyay was born with what can safely be termed as a bastardised linguistic legacy. While his mother and father tongues are Odiya and Bangla respectively, his entire education has been in what is claimed to be the national language of India, i.e. Hindi, a laguage that he loves but refuses to accord the 'national' status to, for reasons that are another thesis altogether much beyond the scope of this correspondence. English certainly is Mr. Bonyopadhyay's step-mother tongue, and a testament to his amiable nature that he can be reasonable in handling it, although the chinks in his English armour are clearly obvious to the likes of Mr. White, the real progenies of the language. Real progenies of course enjoy their added advantage. One can after all take liberties with mom that one most likely will not with step-mom. So for example, a Mr. White can patronise an email name like 'usjerzeeboy'! Comprised of three distinct parts, the 'us' obviously signifies a nationality, of a country whose waning economic, political, and military influences is ever perfectly counter balanced by its inexhaustable desire for hegemony in every sphere, including English of course. The 'jerzee' part is where the real liberties lie. If Jerzee is a real place in that great nation of hegemons, I take back everything I am about to commit to print hereafter. Only, it just does not show up in my geography references, which makes me think it is the liberty induced take on 'Jersy'. There is such a place there, but with a prefix 'New' added to the name (isn't everything there 'new' and lacking in history..!?) which Mr. White can conveniently (or intentinally, do take your pick) discard. The 'Jersy' that is not 'new' just happens to be across the pond from the 'new' Jersy, and is credited with providing the 'holy cows' that sustain the world's diary industry. So its avoidance is exactly the kind of liberty with confused geography that a true progeny can take, not to speak of the spelling 'jerzee' itself, (creating an 'oh zee..!!' moment for all and sundry). The third part 'boy' is clearly aspirational, for someone with Mr white's depth cannot be such a green-horn.

The magazine will talk about everything from gay fashion, to gadgets and gizmo that gays like, to health and sexuality and other issues relating to men who like men. Following the legalisation of consensual sex between two adult men, I noticed that many departmental stores opened separate stores for gays, Gohil told TOI. In this atmosphere, I felt the need to have a magazine for gays, said Manavendra. The magazine will be launched on July 26 at Goa with actress Celina Jaitley. The cover will have a shirtless photograph of upcoming model Rehan Khan. Interestingly, Fun will be printed in small town Rajpipla, Manavendra's home. As I am getting older, I want to give more time to writing on gay rights and lifestyle. Fun will give me the ideal opportunity. The prince is working on a number of other projects as well, including an old people's home exclusively for homosexuals and a hospice a final destination for AIDS patients on the death bed for both straight and gay people.

Re: g_b usinjg office computer... help me
Use the office computer ONLY for office work, not for anything else, not even if it is not vulgarity and not even to write personal correspondence as you are liable to disciplinary action on the grounds of misusing the office facilities for personal purposes. Do not use the office computers, not even to ask your 97 year old aunt in America (or wherever) how she is - that is a breach of conduct. If you HAVE to use the computer, apply for permission and get it in writing from the boss himself. Otherwise, do not use the computer. By the way, this applies to EVERYTHING official. Do not use the office letterhead paper, the envelopes, the postage stamps, the franking machine .. anything. Okay? Let there be a clear cut demarkation between office and personal, specially as you are under observation and a marked man now. Alternatively, switch to another organisation where playing games on the office computer in lunch time is so cool that you can even beat the boss at chess. But in this organisation, behave or quit. Before you are flung out in disgrace. From your letters, it is obvious that your current workplace is strict and disciplined (and congrats to them about that - that is how an office should be).

Re: g_b can we help her?
Try the Sathya Sai Hospital at Bangalore. I have heard that it is a free hospital for all ailments and that it is super speciality and doing very humanitarian work. The patient will be taken care of free of charge. Those attending with her will have to bear their own expenses. This means that you have to travel there on your own money, stay and eat on your own money and return on your own money BUT all hospitalisation, medicines and surgery, care before and after operation etc. will all be free for the patient. The Brahma Kumaris at Andheri West are also doing very good humanitarian service. Outside Andheri West Station. That is also a hospital. You can get more information on such institutes from the web or go to Andheri West for Brahma Kumaris and to Andheri East near Holy Spirit Hospital to Satya Sai Temple for more information.

Subjective che... People who spend at parties will spend at parties, Irrespective of what the charge is. And Wallah! this is new year yaar. Special events come with special exotic price. And 2300 is with Unlimited Food and Daaru... and most of our party hoppers on new year want to get sloshed without having to weigh their wallets after every drink. So feel the deal is super sexy though keemti. This year, it is much different, it is the first new year party after S377 wala verdict. So we can expect a lot of shoo shaa and fanfare this year. The karma people might be just capitalizing on this. may be. Karma is a known venue. so people will connect to it. And yes, trying a new venue on new years would definitely be a bad idea... Aur ek baat, with the risk of sounding stupid, i have a proposal to make. How about charging Rs. 100 more.. (2300 or 2400 doesnt make much of a difference.. or does it?) and donating that extra amount to some non gay charitable cause. Like say.. fulfilling dying wishes of children from make a wish foundation.. or say sponsoring x number of children ka education for a year or so.. I feel it will be an extremely positive vibe that we will send out to the world / the media et al. with this act. or with that amount.. could also contribute to co own Onir's film I Am Omar which is based on section 377...

As so many of you know, this has been GB's way of both ending and starting the year with a blast, and we're hoping to do so again this year. Every year we've seen the numbers at the party rise - I think last year we touched 600. A lot of these are people who come from out of town for the party, though we've noticed that as the evening goes on, quite a lot of locals who were planning their own parties, can't resist dropping by as well! Its the one time of the year we can party till 4 am and everyone wants to take advantage of that. We've had parties at a number of venues, with some memorable ones, not always for the best reasons - yes, the name of a place called Chat Masala is burned in my mind, for the almost total chaos of that night. Its the one time we've been caught between people inside complaining it was too packed, and others outside begging to be let in, no matter how packed it was. Total chaos, though I'm sure it was fun for some... For the last few years we've stuck to our regular party venue of Karma/Liquid Lounge at Girgaum Chowpatty, since we've found it large enough (we take over the whole ground floor), reasonably accessible (near Charni Road train station), quite well laid out, and acceptable service and food and alcohol. And the prices, while unavoidably higher for New Year's, have been substantially lower than most other New Year Parties (we've had straight people trying to crash since its been such a good deal!) We would like to stick with Karma, since if one thing Chat Masala taught us is that best not to try new places on New Year's. But there's been a change of management at Karma and the new team is approaching it as they would New Years anywhere else - which is simply a venue's best change to make money all year long. In the last few years, as this habit of going out to party has grown, the importance of New Year's as a moneyspinner for a venue has just increased hugely. So the new team at Karma is just looking at it this way, which I suppose I can't object to, but its still a bit tough for us. They started off negotiations this year at a really high price, and while Dee has managed to bargain them down, and make sure they stick to the usual unlimited alcohol and dinner deal, its still working out quite high, Last year, entry (unlimited booze, till 4 am, etc etc) was was Rs1800. This year it looks like the best we can do is around Rs2300 - a a straight Rs500 up over last year.

The full course of correspondence is pasted below. It is shameful that an international bank that claims to be the world's local bank catering to every individual's needs, would stoop to these cheal and disgusting levels against a person, merely because of his homosexuality. It is now not in any doubt that this bank suffers from almost incurable homophobia. As a concerned individual and as an activst who has fought against homophobia in all spehere that it exhibits itself, I send out this appeal to all of you to boycott HSBC Bank. Please hit back where it hurts the bank most, deny them the privilege to handle your money. Here is what you can do: Close your savings and current accounts with the HSBC bank and move it to another bank that knows how to respect LGBTI persons If you have taken loans from HSBC, please renegotiate these loans with another bank and move it to them. Return your HSBC Credit cards Do not let HSBC manage your assets or your investment portfolio. I am sure if you have anyother form of dealings with HSBC you would also agree to close them and move themto other more civilised banks. Please spread this request to all your LGBTI networks and groups, and to all supporters, so that HSBC learns that a persons sexuality is his business and not theirs. So that they learn that respect is a local trait everywhere and the world's local bank needs to show it to individuals.

Needless to say, this is illegal in addition to being unethical and flies in the face of the bank's stated concern for my wellbeing [as elaborated upon by Mr G Ahluwalia] and the relieving letter wishing me 'success in my future endeavours'. It is admittedly ingenuously homophobic. I also suffered an unfortunate accident yesterday which I survived [but not without significant injury]: I would like to believe that the bank had nothing to do with it. However, you may come to find that buying the entire judicial and legal system in this country [not to mention my extended family and the national media] is going to be a somewhat tenuous proposition even for Europe's largest bank [and the world's richest].

If taken seriously, they may do more harm than good. I would suggest that the gb and g_b group monitors set up panels of psychiatrists, counsellors, doctors, etc., and that such requests be forwarded to the respective person/s directly for an answer. The question and the answer can be then posted on the group site ( like an agony aunt/uncle column). No more discussion should be allowed on the matter to prevent any misunderstanding to occur. I have suggested this as I feel (very seriously) that quite a bit of harm/confusion may befall the member of the group who has the problem if the current state of affairs prevails.

Re: g_b child abuse
What enrages me most is when I hear of someone who has forced himself upon a girl or boy who has no knowledge of what is happening and left that girl or boy with grevious injuries or with such a mental trauma that that boy or girl can no longer live a normal life. A different, sick or perverted sexuality then becomes an outlet for the victim, and not his choice. As Asfan said, all forms of paedophilia are wrong, this is the worst. You are lucky to have had one of the better forms of paedophilia, but surely, you would condemn those who have caused untold suffering and misery? --- On Wed, 8/4/09, mad cow madc...@yahoo.com wrote: From: mad cow madc...@yahoo.com Subject: Re: g_b child abuse To: gay_bombay@yahoogroups.com Date: Wednesday, 8 April, 2009, 10:09 AM hi to all readers, its nice to read all msgs about child abuse as far as i know i was molested by a 55 year old man in my boarding at that time i was 13 year old boy, and belive me he was that first person with whom i had sex and even today i miss him a lot. he is no more in this world but many a time i still think of him now iam 50, i never regreted having sex with him becoz he was s caring and loving person and at that time i was in need of support in the boarding and he was the person who gave me support like father and a lover , so i will never regret about it but i still feel about him i want give hi in return i want to suport him now becoz iam well enough to do but he is no more in this world GOD KEEP HIM REST IN PEACE. thas all i can say .

Re: g_b Harish's story and child abuse--A suggestion
Dear Shatru Lovely, Your suggestion is excellent, but the problem remains in putting it into practice. I have been reading often enough in newspapers about the protests from conservative parents when the school attempts to intoduce sex education as a subject in the curriculum for the year! Now, if the teachers cannot teach sex education in schools, if even textbooks teaching sex education are taboo, we have a long way to go before we reach the stage where your good hearted and excellent suggestions can be implemented! Till then, it is every parent for his/her children and God for all! Regards. --- On Fri, 3/4/09, shatru_lovely shatru_lov...@yahoo.in wrote: From: shatru_lovely shatru_lov...@yahoo.in Subject: g_b Harish's story and child abuse--A suggestion To: gay_bombay@yahoogroups.com Date: Friday, 3 April, 2009, 8:34 PM Like Harish, there may be many in this community who might have suffered from child abuse in their early age of puberty. My suggestion is, such victims should form a group and visit schools, colleges, play ground etc. and educate students as to what is child abuse and how they should fight against it. Let them know whom to approach in such cases, let the child know that he is not alone. May be some NGO is already working in the same direction I am not sure but the efforts are not enough. I have observed that either a child is not at all educated or is over educated. Both are dangerous. Not only children's but parents also need to be educated. Following are some instructions I found on one site. Does your child know the meaning of sex abuse? Did you know that one in three girls in the world is sexually abused before reaching the age of eighteen, and one in four before the age of fourteen? In the case of boys, one in six is sexually abused before the age of sixteen. Quite shocking, to say the least. According to sociologist David Finkelhor, who has conducted a massive study on child sexual abuse in over 19 countries besides the United Statesand Canada, sex abuse percentages in most countries are comparable with North American research figures. The overall percentages range from 7% to 36% for girls and 3% to 29% for boys. Most of these studies found females to be abused at 1.5 to 3 times more than boys. We can clearly see that sexual abuse is an international problem and not restricted to just a few countries in the world. In fact, after countries like Philippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand, countries like Nepal, India and Cambodia are facing an increasing number of paedophiles. A research carried out by Sakshi, a New Delhi-based non-governmental organization, says that 80% of Indian girls and women, belonging to all social classes, experience sexual abuse in their own families and friend circle. Majority of them prefer to remain silent. According to the State of Child Rights in India, incidences of child abuse are definitely on the rise especially since the nineties. It is quite shocking to know that - 66% sexual offenders know their victims. - 32% paedophiles have abused their own children. - 49% paedophiles are attracted to unstable children. WHAT EXACTLY IS CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE? Child sexual abuse is any sexual contact between a child and another person (from fondling to rape) with or without force. People who prefer sexual activity with a child are known as 'paedophiles' . It is important to remember that such offenders are completely 'responsible' and guilty in the abuse, even if they have taken the consent of the minor child. The consent of a child is not considered to be any consent at all. It is imperative to note that family members or close neighbors or frustrated fellow mates can manipulate children. Little wonder that one out of every six abusers is a child. They can be homosexual or even heterosexual. Paedophiles are usually male and could come from almost any socio-economic background. HOW TO PREPARE YOUR CHILD 1. Never scare a child about sexual abuse. Panic will beget panic. Your child may get overcautious about people. This will also affect the child's everyday vigour and spontaneity, which is the ultimate source of joy in a parent's life. But of course, it is always better to be safe than sorry. Therefore, teach him or her ground rules without injecting fear. 2. Teach your children the names of the different parts of the body. Take this step further by specifying the private parts. Tell the child that these parts should not be touched by anyone, not even close friends. 3. Your behaviour with your spouse can be a role model for the children. Therefore, until your children understand the importance of a healthy sexual relationship, do not display overt affection to your partner in front of the children. If the children ever touch your private parts, which most children playfully do in their very early years, be firm and tell them not to ever repeat it.

Regards Moderator ‘I was a victim of incest for 11 long years’ Incited by the Mira Road incest-rape, Harish Iyer tells the inspiring story of how he picked up the pieces after being sodomised since he was just seven years old http://www.mumbaimi rror.com/ index.aspx? Page=articlesectname=News% 20-%20Citysectid=2contentid=200903272 0090327020450873 91e1728e By Malay Desai Posted On Friday, March 27, 2009 at 02:04:51 AM Last week, just as an Austrian court sentenced monster dad Josef Fritzl to life for sequestering and raping his own daughter for 24 years, another horrific story emerged – the Mira Road rape and incest case. As all those who knew the victims hid in the shadows trying to comprehend how they failed to see what was going on, one man decided to come out of the dark and speak openly about the incest-rape he suffered as a child. Since he was just seven, Harish Iyer, now 29, was sodomised by his maternal uncle. “I remember when he started bathing me. I was initially unmindful, and so was my family. Who’d think there’s something fishy in an uncle giving a bath to his nephew? However, I started realising that something was wrong two-three months down, when the actual abuse began,” he recalls. “The brutality assumed greater proportions as I grew up, entering my teens. Each invasion on my body was also one on my psyche. I soon started turning into a numb, lifeless being. The few times I summoned the courage to oppose, he threatened to kill me or have my parents killed. I was terrified and told no one about my suffering,” reveals Harish, who works as a creative manager at an event management company. “I began living in my own shell, murmuring to imaginary friends, writing in a diary and crying my heart out, burying my head in my dog Jimmy’s paws. But I kept giving in, unable to say no… till I was 18. Then one day, he pounced on me and I kicked him. That was all it took for him to stop for good. Looking back, I realised I should have given that kick much earlier.” But this was far from the end: “When, I told my parents they were obviously shocked and in a fit of rage, my father accused me of having enjoyed the ordeal since I had not voiced my dissent. This completely changed our relationship, perhaps forever. “I had just one friend and I had poured my heart out to him. But he turned on me and told everyone in college. Apart from frequent taunts and giggles, there was soon graffiti in the men’s loos with my name and number scribbled under the words ‘gay sex’. “I had hit rock bottom and attempted suicide… but fortunately failed. I began to realise that survival was more challenging than escape. The only catalyst behind my positive thoughts was my dog, in whom I found unconditional love. He became my reason for being.” The fact that everyone now knew about his reality only made him stronger and more outspoken. “Activism helped me channelise my frustration. Having a special bond for animals, I started writing to Maneka Gandhi, who heartily replied to each letter. Through various talks, blog activism and impulsive reactions such as the Sita Sena (an angry response to the Ram Sene), I vented my rage towards all stigmas in society.” The persistent rape had taken a toll on Harish’s sexuality, but after a period of self-discovery, he learnt that he is naturally gay. And as for his uncle, though Harish never

I suppose you could try warning him that you will approach the college authorities. That should stop him without hurting his career and you will also sleep with a clear conscience.

Re: g_b 26/11
Yes, Sir! The Army WOULD INDEED be more disciplined, but the Army would be headed by only ONE man. Now, if that man went mad and power crazy, we have examples before us of Hitler and even of almost all the leaders of Pakistan who do not allow even an attempt at democracy to continue to fruition! In our civilian setup, we replace one entire bunch of politicians with another and there is criticism and fault finding and embarassing one another, both, within the party itself as well as between two or more parties and the truth COMES OUT and someone has to go and is replacable and that exercises some control on those who claim to represent the people. Ironically, it is these very controls and restrictions that act as fetters towards progress, but then they also act as barriers towards authoritarian dictatorship! Sir, I had read in a James Hadley Chase book (never did read any highbrow stuff - haha!) that there is no such thing as absolutely right and absolutely wrong in life, neither black, not white, it is all shades of grey! So also, I am not confident of the democratic setup, but I shy at even a dictatorship and overall, I feel that democracy has an edge. Just my opinion, Sir! Regards and Respects.

g_b Fwd: The Priest's Baby!
A woman starts dating a doctor. Before too long, she becomes pregnant and they don't know what to do. About nine months later, just about the time she is going to give birth, a priest goes into the hospital for a prostate gland infection. The doctor says to the woman, I know what we'll do. After I've operated on the priest, I'll give the baby to him and tell him it was a miracle. Do you think it will work? she asks the doctor. It's worth a try, he says. So the doctor delivers the baby and then operates on the priest. After the operation he goes in to the priest and says, Father, you're not going to believe this. What? says the priest. What happened? You gave birth to a child. But that's impossible! I just did the operation, insists the doctor. It's a miracle! Here's your baby. About fifteen years go by, and the priest realizes that he must tell his son the truth. One day he sits the boy down and says, Son, I have something to tell you. I'm not your father. The son says, What do you mean, you're not my father? The priest replies, I'm your mother. The archbishop is your father. Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy!
