COUPLE FIGHTS FOR EQUALY AND SAFETY FOR GAY PEOPLE ON TRIBAL LAND

Former Zimbabwean lear Robert Mugabe once scribed homosexualy as “un-Ain” and a “whe disease. Other Ain lears, pl several other people on the ntent have shared his view, and this has eliced homophobia, persecutn and anti-gay laws untri like Uganda, Tanzania, Moroc, Nigeria and Kenya. From the 16th century, homosexualy has been rerd Ai by European missnari and anthropologists.

The warrrs were not only practisg homosexualy and bi-sexualy but actually married boys or young men. One tertg fact is that unlike stanc of homosexualy, sex between Azan men did not have much to do wh love and longer unns. When I say the term ‘gay tribe’, probably njur up imag of a somehow still survivg, digeno race of homosexuals.

Yet perhaps even more ridiculoly, a 'gay tribe' refers to a way of differentiatg between men on the gay datg app 'Grdr', and somethg which has found s way to our everyday disurse about gay men. So what do I mean when I say ‘gay trib’?

‘GAY TRIB’ ON GRDR: WHY ’S TIME TO STOP TEGORISG EACH OTHER

Basilly, they’re social groupgs of gay men by our key physil characteristics. A gay man's shoppg list. And then jt scends to a natnal geographic subscriber’s paradise: scendg orr of size/ amount of hair (hair really is a theme the gay world apparently), you've got a bear, an otter, a wolf – WOLF!

In orr to shed light on this phenomenon, Rebel Circ last year wrote an article to ‘-mystify’ the ia of the gay tribe.

The article nclud by sayg, ‘The ia of “trib” don’t have anythg to do wh discrimatn wh the gay muny, ’ attributg any lack of acceptance of one’s tribe to the ‘issu’ of an dividual. We’re already labelled as gay as somethg that distguish ; I don’t thk any of are that fsed by beg ‘the gay one’.
