Homosexuality knows no borders

We also heard Musa Ngubane – from Triangle Project. We spoke about the International Day Against Homophobia which was commemorated last week Sunday and the theme this year was “Homosexuality knows no borders”. The proposed goal for the 2009 campaign is to make the general public and more specifically, ethno-cultural communities of all backgrounds, more aware of gay and lesbian issues, and sexual diversity. While southern Africa is home to many lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and trans-sexuals, it is said that very few countries are accepting of same-sex relationships, Musa explained more on some of the challenges that lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and trans-sexuals still face in this country.
