I am infuriated over the ridiculously put together tell tale signs of detecting homosexuality in school children in Malaysia; it is nothing but pure hogwash, not to mention the guidelines being equivocal and anything but foolproof and surefire. I think of it as a bad joke and others are clamoring that this is against human rights.
The guidelines to detect homosexuals issued, published and now, a step away from implementation range from the concerned structure of their body, their preferred attire and their preferred human company. The popularly punctuated trait of gays having effeminate mannerism and behavior are not listed maybe because they are obvious.
Below are the guidelines used to identify gays and lesbians:
Symptoms of gays:
- Likes having a fit body and likes to show off by wearing V-neck and sleeveless clothes;
- A preference for tight and bright-colored clothes;
- Attraction to men; and
- A preference for carrying big handbags, similar to those used by women
Symptoms of lesbians:
- Attraction to women;
- Besides their female companions, they tend to distance themselves from other women;
- A preference for going out, having meals etc. with women and a preference for sleeping in the company of women;
- Not attracted to men
If a male maintains a muscular body for health and have the penchant to show off his hot body by wearing body fit, V neck and sleeveless shirts and if his favorite color for clothing happens to be light hues, enjoys the company of men and sports big bags, he can be confirmed as gay.
So, the warning goes to boys, do not maintain a fit body, never wear the aforementioned garb and don't hang out with guy friends because if you do, you are gay top, bottom, left, right, inside and out!
There are even guidelines to identify lesbians on the bordering of not showing affection to men, likes to sleep with women and almost always in the company of women. So, if I hang out with my girlfriends and sleep on the same bed with my mother, sister, aunt, cousin sisters or a female friend who stays over, I'm lesbian huh?
And, if I have a stormy relationship with my father and sibling rivalry with my brother or a fall out with my male classmates, I am lesbian!
And, while you are at it, how about coming up with guidelines to identify errant students, those students who are falling back in studies, gangsterism and drug abuse in the midst of students, pregnant teens, students in severe needliness and even corrupt politicians and take the necessary steps to curb those problems? That would benefit students and ultimately, people in general no?
Besides, after affirming that a kid is indeed homosexual, what next? Informing their parents that they have a homosexual child and dispense the onus to 'turn their kid around', to change his or her homosexuality into heterosexuality?
Telling the kid that he is abnormal and his sexual tendency is a damned, rankled and blasphemous one, one that religion and society frown upon and that, like it or not, you have to change to what is popularly accepted as righteous is good for the kid? Or build a school to turn homosexual kids to heterosexual beings like how there are schools for pregnant teens? How would any of that would give the kid a morale boost and be beneficial and bear a positive effect imbibed by optimism? With these types of approach, the kid's joy sours and, confusion, steeped in anger, soars and the perception that he is a misfit would settle in the kid's conscience.Why do we have to make our children go through this? This is abuse in it's own right, mind you!
