GAY LIFE BANGLASH
A story about gay Banglash do not beg wh foced muny actn and do not scribe LGBT venu, social clubs or bars or diss. The reason is simple: there is virtually no publicly intifiable Banglash gay muny.

Where this harried ngted maze of excs lns do one fd somethg as strange as ‘gay Banglash’? Of urse, same-sex attractn happens anywhere and everywhere so my search for a gay muny led me to Dhaka, the pol of 14 ln where, like the rt of the society, gays are separated to class based on birth and money. It is virtually impossible for an outsi sual gay visor to accs poorer class gays, unls by accint or an offer of money, both of which are very unlikely sce homosexualy as a mutually tentnal sex act is discernible among the semi or unted unrclass Banglash.

Gay lovers are left to manipulate their love around obligatns, duti and rol imposed om birth and generatns beyond.

Several bright men seized the opportuny 2003 to help start the now popular BoysOnlyBanglash Yahoo group () to addrs the vacuum the gay muny Dhaka. It’s missn is “to brg Banglashi gays unr one roof and provi a safe place for a better uned life.
It aims to strengthen the bond of gay brotherhood and iendship through entertament and at the same time raise awarens about safe sex…”. In 2003 the gay ‘muny’ was only a loose work of isolated dividuals who kept ntact by mobile phone or met strangers cisy Ramna Park.
