Being Gay in Russia


The Russian people, it is said, love Putin. But they try to tell us that they don't have any Gays living there, or very few. You would never see a Pride Fest, as an example, in Russia. You would be sent immediately to the Gulag. "In 2013, Putin outlawed homosexual propaganda as pornography so that gay advocates could be arrested and fined for propagating any published material."

Read what happened to this artist Alexander V. Tsvetkov.

Gay people are fine. Pornography is not fine. Civilized people impose limits on themselves in order to conform to established norms. If you can't make that adjustment you will always be considered a pariah. Americans have limited freedoms like any other civilized society. If you can't adjust to these norms, you belong on a South Pacific Island. There, I'm afraid you would have to conform to whatever they consider a code of behavior. "There is no free lunch."

Used to see good skin flicks at the theatre next to the playhouse, those were the days.

"Homophobia" to mention 2% of population gets 75% of HIV, high suicide rate, on and on the negative stats go.

I'm not an expert, but I think anyone who injects anything into their veins would have a higher risk of contracting HIV/Hepatitis. Suicide, is probably one of the unintended consequences of drug use. I wouldn't have a clue on the statistical breakdown on heterosexual vs homosexual drug use.
