One of the rnerston of the creatn of my mandate is the regnn that gay, lbian, bisexual, trans and genr diverse persons have existed and ntue to exist all rners of the world, all regns and untri, all cultur and all eras. In many stutns, for example, trans women have been scribed as gay men. In this perspective, some have stated that there are few mands for more protectn of LGBT people and that the crimalizatn of homosexualy has not been clud the major mands of the Tunisian revolutn and, the face of the current reali of unemployment and enomic stagnatn, ntue to be unimportant the ey of most cizens.
Homosexual men, particular, live their liv unr the threat of crimalizatn. This crimalizatn also creas the fear of homosexual and trans populatns, as well as sex workers, to be arrted and forc them to go unrground, to rea om participatg HIV preventn and HIV risk preventn programm or even to posss ndoms or lubrints, as this uld nstute, for police officers, physil proof of homosexualy or sex work. In practice, prison thori and officers regnize that homosexual men are part of the prison populatn and also clu trans women that populatn.
