Gay iendly? Re: Gay iendly?

PHENOMENAL & GAY FRIENDLY - SANDALS MONTEGO BAY

Jamai is not gay-iendly like the DR and Mexi, but the discrimatn is directed more toward men and toward s own cizens. Gay women have been accepted for many years and there is a movement to stop artists who sg songs about gay men to endas well as public attentn to end discrimatn. Gay or straight public; displays of affectn are owned upon by most Jamain's but rort area ls.

Homosexualy is not an accepted liftyle choice here and they're not aaid to say so. We've gone to Sandals Montego Bay annually for many years, and have never seen discrimatn towards gay upl on the rort. You basilly need to pass when you're outsi the rort, otherwise you are very, very likely to face homophobic harassment.

Attus towards the LGBT munyJamai’s homophobia may have origated Victorian valu, but today the beliefs are perpetuated thanks to the island’s stereotypilly macho culture. The tras ntribute to a culture of ‘hypermasculy’, and they all stand direct opposn to homosexualy and transgenr inty.

GAY VISORS - MONTEGO BAY FOM

In 2010, the Universy of the Wt Indi rried out a survey which showed that over 82 percent of Jamains believed male homosexualy was immoral. Gay men are referred to as ‘batty man’ or ‘batty boy’, highly pejorative terms. Many Jamains are vout Christians, which ntribut to the untry’s anti gay stance.

Rastafarians – who only prise around one percent of the populatn – are more ambiguo their attus towards the LGBT muny, although a number of proment Rastafarian lears have exprsed homophobic views. But Jamai, there is another fluence that has ntributed to the wispread and aggrsive homophobia.

MONTEGO BAY GAY FRIENDLY HOTELS

A 2014 study by the Universy of the Wt Indi revealed that the most reliable predictors of homophobic prejudice were beg male, and a preference for dancehall mic.

Jamai’s most famo export, s mic, is one of the worst promoters of homophobia, wh dancehall and ragga tracks cludg lyrics which enurage attackg or killg gay men and women. Even reggae – famed for s ‘one love’ msage – has been cricised for s homophobic them.

In 2004, the activist group Stop Murr Mic was found to mpaign agast Caribbean artists who e their mic to promote homophobic vlence and murr. More often than not, asslts and threats rema unreported as LGBT victims fear beg arrted themselv unr the harsh anti gay laws, so the perpetrators know they are unlikely to be brought to jtice.

GAY MONTEGO BAY

Many homophobic crim are dismissed as such, wh the police claimg they were botched burglari, for example. We unrstand, of urse, that not all Jamains are homophobic, and many more will not ndone acts of vlence. But the attacks are wispread enough for this to have bee a dangero and ighteng place to be gay, lbian or transgenr.
