How Pakistan tortures its LGBTQs: With its brutal mix of silence and violence, Pakistan routinely targets this vulnerable group

Gay sex, Supreme Court, Lgbtq rights, Section 377 verdict

Supreme Court, Lgbtq rights, Homosexuality, Section 377

A dark tale from inside the closet: Section 377 has ruined many lives, including those of straight people

People pushed into a corner sometimes hit back. At times, they are so trapped, they don't care who else gets hurt.

Supreme Court, Lgbtq rights, Homosexuality, Section 377

It is a shame Section 377 still exists. SC must uphold human dignity over false morality

No, homosexuality is not unnatural, not a choice, not a perversion.
