It's the Independence Day again.
What does this day means to you ? Does it really translate to the word freedom ?
After 54 years of development, I am still afraid to come out, I still can't really be myself in public and the saddest part is that homosexuality is still not legal in this country.
It's as if a sin for me to be gay. Honey politicians, I was born with homosexuality in me.
Anyway, Merdeka to my country and may we enjoy another year of the political dramas play by you. Indeed, what a show.
Thanking you for a job well-done and keep it up !

homosexuality isn't illegal. sodomy is. technical difference, i know. but it's becoming less of an issue in the country nowadays, compared to the olden days.
Doesn't make me wanna leave the country any less though.
I know right!? HOW CAN STILL ME ILLEGAL?? Guess we have to wait... Happy merdeka! :P
I am one who has left the country. I am from older generation and compare to you young ones it is much more acceptable nowadays.
@Deicidal: True, but then the way it's being portrayed here is as if it's a sin to be born this way.
@Klex: Yup, that's the thing with us. Always waiting, never being wanted.
Lol...
@Alee: True. So, where are you now ?

section 377A of the Penal Code literally means that anal/oral sex between men is illegal, so technically, if you're gay and got caught doing anal / oral sex with your partner, you'll be prosecuted. but the code is silent on same-sex relationship...so it doesn't really say being in a same-sex relationship is illegal. our law is very flawed and needs to be amended, but the powers that be will never agree to it.
@ryane: Thanks for the explanation. And thank you for dropping by to my humble blog.
