Daft law discriminates against gay Kenyans

Kenya’s new proposed Constitution will, as anticipated, not permit for same-sex unions. It’s baffling how this Draft that allows for adults to enter into unions based on 'free consent of the parties' would then purposely exclude other citizens based on their sexual orientation.

What part of ‘adult’, ‘free’ and ‘consent’ do these legal experts have a difficulty understanding?

    '...What are the rights they(gays and lesbians) want and when did they come out and were told what they can get and what they cannot'?

  2. Hello Patricia Mambo,

    He might have a point, but we need to consider personal safety as well (amongst other things). There's no quick fix, this is about people and private relationships so it can be complicated, life eh?! By the way thanks for stopping by. xxx xxx

Hey you, leave a comment but don't just be an asshole about it - try to be decent. That said you are welcome to heap abuse or ridicule if it makes you feel better. However in order to get published it must not be homophobic, racist or sexist. OK?
