InBangkok Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 3 hours ago, Torrent said: To quote my thai friend, gay marriage has been legal in Thailand for quite some time. A marriage ceremony between two men is permitted but that is all. There are no legal or other rights and protections - merely a ceremony for friends and family. Virtually meaningless and few make use of it. Thailand does not permit formal gay marriage, civil same-sex unions or even domestic partnerships!

I have the same opinion since shortly after the beginning of the pandemic. The American government IS criminally negligent. I am frustrated over the Media that doesn't call Trump a criminal. Frustrated that they don't hold him and his ass-kissing Pence as criminals, not only for negligence but for shamelessly lying and deceiving. And Trump IS an indicted criminal since last year, when only a corrupt GOP senate prevented him from being convicted (impeached) and thrown out.

That's what it says - but what is the reality? A country stolen by white people from the native American Indians who were then mostly massacred? 38.1 million Americans living below the poverty line? Tens of millions of families today existing on food stamps? A huge number of black Americans filling the lowest paid jobs - and seemingly killed in the streets in far greater numbers by white cops? How many native American Indians who live on reservations and how many black men, women and their families who exist on the lowest wages are able to enjoy happiness, I wonder? Oh, I know. Shouldn't single out just one country. And that's perfectly true. What colonial powers and those who encouraged slave owning (i.e. many European nations) left disastrous legacies. The British brought in a lawyer Cyril Radcliffe who had never been to India to carve up the country into two separate states, India and Pakistan - and gave him all of five weeks to do it! Worse, he had to rely on out of date maps and inaccurate census figures. Communities which had lived side by side for centuries were suddenly split apart. The result? A migration of more than 12 million people and up to a million killed in religious violence. In this part of the world, too, the British East India Company forced China to accept opium for its Chinese imports, thus condemning untold millions to death. For those of us who are gay, the British also put Section 377A in the legal system of all its dozens of colonial servants. Are we today really any better as human beings than living under the rules of the tribal system of thousands of years ago? As to Thailand, at least the country was not colonised during the colonial era. It merely came to accommodations with various countries to avoid colonisation. And the proposed new gay civil partnership law seems yet another accommodation. Thailand is a very conservative country. It does not allow foreigners to own land. So what happens if a Thai who owns a house and becomes partnered to a non-Thai passes away. The non-Thai inherits the house. But what happens to the land on which the house is built? The foreigner cannot own it! Before it gets near parliament, the civil partnership bill has to solve a whole lot of similar thorny issues and I believe this will be extremely difficult, sadly.

I'll happily get back to discussing same sex partnerships in Thailand when other posters cease to make statements like the above that are known to be false. There is absolutely no proof that patients do not necessarily get stronger. Indeed after 'recovery' quite a number find that they start suffering other symptoms which includes confusion, extreme clumsiness and worse. Medical scientists are now releasing that the lungs, brain and other organs can all suffer longer term damage. As far as only the "weak with precondition of multiple symptoms could not make it", that was disproved months ago. For example - Quote CDC report shows that as of March 16, 2020, 508 people were hospitalized for COVID-19 in the U.S. Of these, 38% were between 20 and 54 years old. Half of those ending up in intensive care were younger than 65. On June 24 the US Vice President announced that fully half of those who had died in the previous few weeks had been adults under the age of 35. In the last few days there have been news reports of a 30 year old with no other symptoms who died of covid19 after attending a covid19 party. He and those who attended believed the virus was just a hoax. His last words were, "You know, I think I made a mistake." That surely joins a long list of famous last words. Movie director Alfred Hitchccck, a master of suspense, apparently said, "One never knows the ending . . . although Catholics have their hopes." PS: I have no idea where the pink colour came from!!

Jozsef Szajer resigned on Sunday after he admitted to breaching Belgium's strict lockdown rules to attend a sex party, Politico reported on Tuesday. The police found 25 naked men at the gathering, including Szajer and some diplomats, the Belgian newspaper La Dernière Heure reported. The newspaper quoted a local police source as saying, "We interrupted a gang bang." Orban's Hungarian government has curtailed LGBTQ rights since he was elected prime minister in 2010. Szajer, who fronted Fidesz in the European Parliament, helped rewrite Hungary's constitution to "protect the institution of marriage as the union of a man and a woman," The Times of London reported. Szajer, a right-wing politician and ally of Orban, climbed out a first-floor window and was spotted "fleeing along the gutter," the public prosecutor's office said. A source close to the investigation told Politico that officers were called after a complaint about a "night-time disturbance."

Steve5380 Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 God Heavens!! Look at the face of this Jozsef Szajer !! Can one imagine how the rest of his body may look like? What is believable is that if this Jozsef Szajer appeared naked at the orgy, 25 naked men would have escaped climbing out the first floor window.

Guest strange Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 some time back you attacked people here who did body shaming and what do you do now yourself???

Steve5380 Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) Pete Buttigieg was nominated as Transportation Secretary by Joe Biden, the first time a LGBTQ individual is given such a responsibility. https://www.cnn.com/2020/12/15/politics/pete-buttigieg-transportation-secretary/index.html At 38, Pete will also be the youngest cabinet member. What a great opportunity for him to show his capacity and prepare him for a future success in a run for president, which he nearly achieved this time. And another opportunity to make us gays proud. If he handles Transportation as well as his speeches, he will have it made : Edited December 18, 2020 by Steve5380 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Huh? Posted December 18, 2020 Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 The fundamentalist will have a lot too say later. I will bet with my dick on the chopping board if he becomes a president and then marry him for goodness sake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 25 probably consists of 5 fat cat diplomats, plus 20 hookers. It is amazing what money can do. A bit like those decrepit sex tourists surrounded by young nubile boys. Those boys sure aint interested in their sagging tits... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here we go again .... Biden did this, Biden did that. All the while forgetting the fact that it was Donald Trump who appointed Richard Grenell as the Acting Director of National Intelligence on 20 February 2020, making Richard the first openly gay DNI and cabinet member in American history. https://www.dni.gov/index.php/newsroom/news-articles/item/2130-q-a-with-former-acting-director-of-national-intelligence-richard-grenell-on-pride-in-2020 What's next?

It can provide the universe of sex. The problem famous people in power have is: how do do it without getting caught. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first vaccine was given during Joe Biden's time? The way people wants to re-write their own history ..... You are not well informed about Richard Grenell. Here is an article that may correct your thinking: https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2020/12/16/pete-buttigieg-richard-grenell-first-gay-cabinet-difference/ Grenell was a cabinet-seat filler for 3 months. It was not a full cabinet position but something temporary, to keep that seat warm. But there is a bigger difference. Trump did not have a cabinet. He had (and still has partially) a sordid group of co-conspirators selected for their low morale and inclination to commit crimes, for which some were indicted and convicted. This is something similar to Hitler, who had also a "cabinet" of demons incarnated from the depths of hell, like von Papen, Herman Goring, Joseph Goebbels, Rudolf Hess, Martin Borman. Adolph Eichman was also somewhat related, the same as Josef Mengele, the "Angel of Death". Thinking of it... how well would fit for Trump: "Angel of Corruption", "Angel of Deception", "Angel of LIes"..... he could fill the sky with angels! .

Cutting thru all the chases, you still find Trump quite Angelic. So, he is still not that bad after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you read some about Josef Mengele, the "Angel of Death", you can see that people call 'angel' also that what is not angelical.

Guest first gay? Posted December 18, 2020 Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 He is not yet there, due to the requirement for Senate confirmation, but you should have written the first "openly gay" Cabinet Member... I guess, there had been gay or bi Federal Government/ Cabinet Members before... 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
