• India: Homosexuality, Adultery, and the Dismantling of the Colonial Legacy

Here, we can see that colonialism was not just the material ruling of a foreign land and its people, but the spreading of British values to other nations. Such values were ingrained into the national consciousness of colonised countries, being passed through generations and upheld by cultural practices and through law. Consequently, in former colonies, the presence of the British empire lingers like a phantom limb, with its ideas and practices surviving centuries after its detachment.

These attitudes, however, are changing, and the repeal of Section has been regarded as one of many attempts to decolonise the law in India and to dismantle the remnants of its past in favour of forwarding progress. Thus, by striking down this law, the Indian court recognised the agency of women as individuals, not simply as wives or victims whilst ceasing the unfair conviction of men for a crime women are equally capable of committing or being responsible for.

The British empire was vast and its legal and cultural legacy widespread. The importance of Britain in the past and future of global same-sex rights has been acknowledged by world leaders. This would be construed as western diktat and neo-colonialism.

The move to decriminalise homosexual relations in former colonies is showing signs of success. It was just 1, years ago that the tainting of same-sex intimacy became widespread, particularly in Europe. Why did same-sex intimacy become tainted? Some say it had to do with religion and was initiated in the church.

Others say it had to do with the development of the family as an economic unit and the productive value of children to the family. Still others say it had to do with the socio-cultural construction of gender in the context of the sexual division of labor that evolved with the rise of private property. These are socio-culturally produced phenomena, not who we must be as dictated by nature. I suspect all of the above factors played a part, but this concept of the construction of gender with its distorting constriction, confinement and vulgarization of human sexuality is what is important to us today.

Do homosexuals chose to be or are they born that way? Well, the best answer we can come up with now is that something makes same-sex love and intimacy more desirable to particular people, and they are unable to deny it. The best science says nature and nurture are at work here though some argue it is only nurture. Even those men and women who desire same-sex relationships but marry the opposite sex trying to conform to the social norm find it a very difficult life to maintain.

The homophobia and heterocentrism of our conflicted society makes such behavior seem necessary for survival. The partners who do not know the nature of the relationship in which they are involved can be emotionally hurt. This is not so much about lying as it is about human beings who feel they are forced by our society to hide or even deny who they really are. Even today, we would be living in a fantasy world if we thought every man who is gay or every woman who is a lesbian or every youth who is lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgendered LGBT can easily proclaim this to the world.

The ultra-right actively promotes the view that those who engage in same-sex intimacy should be stoned and castigated as sinners before God, even though religious leaders who are serious students of history maintain that such interpretations of the Bible do not hold up. Many people still feel they require the cover of opposite-sex marriage no matter how miserable they are.

Some who find the wherewithal to make public their different-ness from our socially constructed gender system can suffer extreme consequences that cannot be ignored or minimized — overt and covert discrimination, prejudice, even physical attack and murder. How does the LGBT question relate to the question of economic and social class?
