This tabloid’s obsession with homosexuality is a blatant form of gender policing for purposes of maintaining male supremacy in the country. Uganda is a patriachal society with divided gender roles and where women have fewer rights and opportunities for economic independence than men.

Men and women who have sex with members of the same sex subvert this man-on-top gender hierarchy and are, therefore, going to be targets for persecution. At their core, many (all?) LGBT issues are also gender issues.

snark/ Of course, maybe Money Shot Martin could invest some of his declining funds in a security company? That way the For-Profit Prophet could get back some of his lost revenue, I mean, if they really believe all this BS about homosexual generals…that shouldn’t be too tough of a job, should it? How tough can they be? /snark

Hmmm, so Al Shabaab bombs the “Onion” or “Rolling Stone” in return for being called a bunch of fags, and as a result those two “newspapers” are unable to continue their vendetta. I see little (if anything) for us to lose from this, and quite a lot to gain. All we have to do is sit back and wait.

The sheer paranoia and stupidity of it all really does resemble the Anti-communist craziness of the 50′s. Why doesn’t it register that gay people are a minority everywhere and persecuted in a lot of places? Yet they claim there’s a virtually all-powerful gay conspiracy? One of these things is NOT like the other.

More to the point isn’t it kind of stupid to slap the Al Shabaab bull on the nose like that? Most likely if THEY find out their bombing is being said to be the work of gays, they will think the Ugandans are calling *Them* gay. Of course then if the “Onion” or the “Rolling Stone” gets blown up by Al Shabaab, then they’ll try to lie about who did it again I’m sure.

I don’t see this madness ending well.

Shouldn’t that be “insecure and naive straight men”? Even I know that it’s not how fast you get a woman to orgasm that’s important in giving her a good time, but how long you keep her there, and that requires rather more skill.

Of course, many straight men seem to be threatened by any concept of sexuality even slightly different from their own, so perhaps that explains their naivete – and the millions (if not billions) of women consigned to a life of mediocre (if they’re lucky) sex.

Still: the more absurd it gets, the more the average Ugandan will realise how nonsensical it all is. Hopefully.

The time i have worked with government and faced different tragedy, i learnt one thing about our administration, anything to do with security is highly considered.

Awww! That is just too bad for Pastor “Eat-da-poo-poo!” Gay Ugandans are about to be written out of the country’s constitution and he’s bitter about receiving less foreign aid? Tough sh#t, a-hole!
