So, a few days back the Delhi High Court sort of revoked Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code. (it makes sodomy a crime, along with bestiality) And just my luck that I find myself in a new city, sitting in some old geezer’s house as the news channels whip themselves into a frenzy about how this will lead to people running amok in the streets, buggering anyone caught bending (Bad pun, I know)

So, the old geezer is one of those religious farts and he starts right off with his mini-polemic about how sodomy is a Sin and Unnatural according to the Bible and how the Delhi High Court has in one fell swoop, legalised bestiality too, the fools!

He carries on about the Pope (creepy picture above) and the Queen of England being the head of the church and both of them saying that this is deviant, unnatural behaviour (bestiality and sodomy) and he goes on and on and on….

All of this without even bothering to check if any of the people in the room that he has just met are gay themselves and might be thoroughly offended by his tirade. I had the urge to tell the pompous old prick that he needn’t worry, no one of either sex would ever want to fuck him recreationally and even the bestiality crowd would have to be going through a very dry phase to even look his way, but I demurred.

And that is the problem with non-religious, agnostic types, we let the religious nut-balls get away with all sorts of bullshit just because we don’t want to lower ourselves to their level and bash the world on its head with our theology. This shit has to stop! People too intelligent to believe in religion need to start speaking up and put these small minded sheep in their place.

Dear Gay People (or whatever the kosher phrase of the hour is) congratulations for what its worth. I don’t see how revoking Article 377 makes any difference to you while you still have to live in a society filled with douchebags who believe that God wrote books that tell them not to enjoy sex, who think anything except missionary is unnatural and who want to have a say in what you do behind closed doors in your own damn home! I wouldn’t want to be a child coming of age and realising that I was gay today, any more than I would while it was still illegal. I don’t see how it could, but if it makes life in this world full of assholes any easier for all of you, excellent!

My own cheap little thrill from all of this is that it will make all the homophobic, religious nuts lose sleep for ages, just lying in their bed thinking about the Delhi High Court’s ruling. Just picturing them provides me with endless mirth and dare I say it, barely suppressed giggles.

Go Delhi High Court!
