Separate but equal has bad connotations, dadudeman.
It would not be equal, at all. It would be far better.
Unless you think being able to form relationships with the people you love is equal to a death penalty or prison sentence?

Also, the idea that gays can't be in society is troubling.
There are millions in India and millions more in the middle east who are not "allowed" to be gay under the actual law. Pretty serious. There needs to exist a country that would take all of those people in and allow them to be part of productive group. Did you know gay men, in some cultures in India, have to get castrated?
I say we call my hypothetical country "Fabuland."

No, we taught them how to build roads and sewers and shit like that. We were basically the cool version of the Romans, only way hotter.
The British got their ass's kicked out of India through NONVIOLENCE. More like the lame version of Romans.
BTW, Societies indigenous to the Indian sub-continent were building roads and sewers way way before Europeans.
come back later
India birthed Hinduism, one of the most repressive continuous religions in the world, and Buddhism, probably the most progressive and lenient. But the majority still favor the former and people have lived and died under it for centuries.
Also, dadudeman: why do gays need a country that's exclusive? Wouldn't they better acclimate in countries where they already have families and ties? Or should minorities be removed instead of politely integrated, like the Native Americans and Australian Aborigines?

No they weren't. Before us they were living in caves and eating dogs. We uplifted them with our great cultural swag.AND we taught them the missionary position. You're ****ing welcome India.
Living in caves and eating dogs? Are you phucking stupid?
Before British imperialism, India had a rich cultural history of the worlds greatest empires. India and Han China were leaders in cultural, medical, mathematical and technological innovation.
Britain became prosperous because they accidentally found the Americas, and once they did, the British leached America for its rich raw materials and natural resources.
Shock me, say something intelligent.

We could just forcibly annex India and such places and force them to live our ways of life, starting with the public executions of their leaders.
I had no idea George W. Bush posted with NemeBro's account on KMC.

Why wouldn't they want to go to a place away from the legal imprisonment and murder of their kind?

Can you enjoy your families when you're dead or in prison?

You're clearly joking, here.

Why do people care? I just don't understand.There are so many more important issues to worry about.
Yup, it's boggling that people give THAT much of a shit over who f*cks who. Like, really? I can better understand such discrimination in some backward tribe living in some shit hole cave because they don't know any better but these are educated people and they have no excuse.
Sure, back in Middle School, me and some of my friends made fun of a kid for being Gay which was wrong but we were douche-bag kids who criticized everything. Eventually a well adjusted human being should stop being 10 years old and grow up.
Edit: In reflection, that is also an issue. Schools need to be more vigilant for such poor behavior. We definitely deserved a hard talking to for being such nasty little f*cks but I guess it speaks better of us that we realized ourselves it was inappropriate. But still, many don't and the attitude follows them into adulthood.
