It still pains me that we have brothers in countries that limit their ability to express and be themselves. Imagine a few years from now, hopefully not many, they looking back and knowing that they lost a good chunk of their existence to having to pretend to not be who they are. Time they will never have back. They could have spent that time creating meaningful connections and relationships and sex with like-minded people. But no, someone decided that it is wrong for them to do so. Pathetic.
You’d think purely from economic forces they wouldn’t pass a law that anti-gay.
Like they would see that this would cause a decrease in investment, for a country that is already pretty poor, and decide to not do it.
It’s not like being anti-gay has to be codified in law for a country to be extremely anti-gay.
A lot of the anti-gay laws are largely put in place by American evangelical congregations. It may hurt the country economically, but it strongly benefits the politicians that pass those laws.
