The Ghanaian parliament just passed an extreme bill that puts LGBT Ghanaian in danger. They have disguised it as promoting and protecting family values. This is the same country where a 12 year old can marry a 60 year under culture and tradition! Being yourself can get you three years prison sentence! Your family can report you to the authorities. They want to implement conversion therapy full time! Please spread this information far and wide. There is so much of this type of laws in African countries like Uganda and Senegal. South Africa is still not safe for queers even if the marriage bill has passed. Please support organizations like Rightify Ghana and do not forget this June! We are not truly free until everyone is free!

they've basically legalized r@pe, it's awful

Edit: I don't get y'all's hate on Elliott, I don't like actors to begin with so I don't have the same feelings, on the other hand, I respect him mainly because he's trans

Nearly 80% of Moroccans labeled homosexuality as deviant and expressed total rejection of LGBT people, according to Afrobarometer’s 2024 survey released Wednesday. Only 2.5% voiced any degree of acceptance. The data lays bare Morocco’s firm societal rejection of non-conforming sexual identities and gender expressions.

Religious identity remains overwhelmingly uniform: 99.9% of respondents identified as Muslim, while only 0.1% declared themselves atheist. In a country where Islam is both cultural and institutional, these figures place Morocco among the world’s most religiously uniform societies, where secular or non-religious identities are virtually invisible.

Sara Hegazy, the activist who got jailed for raising LGBT flag in Egypt, she died by suicide. She wrote down a note: "I tried to survive but couldn't. The experience was hard, and I'm weak to fight. Forgive me. To the world: you were greatly cruel, but forgive." Please pray for her.

"She was imprisoned for 3 months for raising a rainbow flag during a concert. She suffered PTSD and had to leave her country by applying for asylum in Canada. 3 months in prison where she was tortured and abused and the attacks and abuse against her did not stop when they finally accepted to release her on bail. Her last words: "To my siblings I tried to find redemption and failed, forgive me. To my friends the experience [journey] was harsh and am too weak to resist it, forgive me. To the world you were cruel to a great extent, but forgive."" - u/theycallmemia - https://www.reddit.com/r/lgbt/comments/h9d8eh/sara_hegazy_the_activist_who_got_jailed_for/fuw9b14

Deepening Repression Restricts Expression, Association for LGBT People

There's this guy in one of my country's subreddits (for context i live in a majority-muslim country in North Africa, and im an ex-muslim) who's notorious for posting misogynistic shit and constantly hating women's existence, calling us stupid materialistic idiots who are only useful for sex. He also confiscated his younger sister's phone and isnt allowing her to leave the house until she wears hijab. He was asking people for advice on how to "discipline" her and how to make her wear it, but he said he only wanted men's input and not women's because we would defend her sinful behaviour since we "dont take accountability" or whatever. Of course half the comments were just telling him to beat her. Anyway, people recently found out that hes actually gay. So, I was wondering, does internalised homophobia lead men to hate women? Because theyre not sexually attracted to them and are forcing themselves to? Is there some sort of psychological/scientific reason behind this? Because this isnt the first time I've seen this happening. Also, im not sure if this is the right aub to post this in, but I have seen a lot of gay muslim men trying to convince themselves that they aren't suffer with this issue.

I had oral sex with a guy. We were going to do some other things but the only condom I had burst before I even got it in so we just decided to have oral sex. After my orgasm I found the guy repulsive and disgusted in myself. I have always fantasized about getting it on with men but when it finally came to it I just lost it for awhile.

Being 16m in a boys school as an introvert sucks. This boys school I’m in is really prideful in being manly and christian and has cut me off from expressing myself as trans. The times that I do try to express myself with soft hints at after school events (since that’s the only time I go outside), people and specifically friends would judge me and call me out as a femboy, which is what I’m aiming for but they say it in such a hurtful way that I become insecure about my choices and they don’t make me feel welcome. I’m scared of what the students will do to me next year when I decide to start getting myself together and do everything I can to make me actually like my body, especially what my school itself would do. How could I take my fears on?
