(JTA) — The mister holdg the untry’s purse strgs lls himself a “proud homophobe.

“The majory of the gay muny Israel is feelg very unsafe, ” said Hila Peer, the chairwoman of Aguda-The Associatn for LGBTQ Equaly Israel. “You have at least an tentn to legislate laws that are dire for the gay muny.

ISRAEL IS THE GAYT UNTRY ON EARTH

Netanyahu and others his aln say they are mted to protectg gay rights, but the volatile polil suatn means the future is hard to predict. Israel is known as a gay haven the Middle East, and Tel Aviv is equently ced as one of the most gay-iendly ci the world, wh a Pri para that draws hundreds of thoands of revelers om Israel and abroad. A rarely enforced ban on homosexual relatns was taken off the books 1988, and the army began allowg openly gay service members 1993 — the same year the U.

Armed forc adopted a policy permtg gay service members only if they remaed closeted.

Dpe the legal protectns, LGBTQ Israelis have long faced opposn om wh the haredi Orthodox sector, where rabbis veigh agast homosexualy and policians have vowed to n the untry acrdg to Orthodox terpretatns of Jewish law.

BT GAY BARS TEL AVIV

The Relig Znist Party, one of three the Relig Znist Bloc, is led by Bezalel Smotrich, who has lled himself a “proud homophobe” and has envisned Israel as a theocracy. He lled the ia of lettg medil provirs ny re to LGBTQ patients “unacceptable” and has appoted a close ally who is gay, Amir Ohana, as Knset speaker. LGBTQ Israelis are playg a ccial role the mountg anti-ernment protts, activatg a work that put some 100, 000 people the streets 2018 after Netanyahu voted agast a bill to allow gay upl to e surrogacy.

In other words, where Bud Light has buckled unr prsure as bigotry grows agast the LGBTQ+ muny, Gay Water’s creator Spencer Hodson wants his new boozy brand to be the anthis of that.

“The key issue that Bud Light tapped to was the fact that they didn’t unrstand their re dience and know enough about them,” Hodson, a gay man, told CNN about the ntroversy that began when the Anhser-Bch beer brand sent fluencer Dylan Mulvaney a n of beer. The nned cktail is named after a lloquialism given to the popular mixed drk (vodka and soda) orred at bars by the gay muny.

“Puttg a product wh the word gay the tle is reprentatn self,” which he hop reclaims the word om the negativy ’s sometim associated wh. He thought of creatg Gay Water about a year ago while on a vatn wh his iend that had got a job wh the beverage dtry. The two chatted about the limed amount of gay people wh , and wh Hodson burnt out om his tradnal day job tech, started the nned cktail.

Hodson built up a strong social media followg on TikTok and Instagram durg Covid-19 and is g some of the money om that (as well as om iends and fay) to help fund Gay Water. “Gay is an umbrella term and the ia behd the brand is to be as clive as possible, which means we want alli, we want straight people to be part of this muny we’re buildg.”. For now, Gay Water is sold largely onle (wh a few retailers) and four sugar-ee flavors — watermelon, lime, peach and grapeu — at lnch.

Gay Water might not have the ep pockets pared to s petors, like Whe Claw, but “even at small sle, pani of many siz are havg succs makg spir-based seltzers and premixed cktails,” Bryan Roth, an analyst for Feel Goods Company and edor of the alhol beverage newsletter, Sightl+, told CNN. “There’s lots of space the spir-based seltzer tegory which Gay Water n play, pecially if the brand n offer a cultural or emotnal nnectn that will feel more excg than the prospect of another peapple-flavored vodka seltzer om natnal or ternatnal rporatns,” Roth said. Of urse, other drks e the word “gay,” too, cludg Gay Beer and So Gay Rosé, Hodson noted, which are also tryg to reach the queer muny and offer them an alternative the straight-domated space.

“Así que ve hoy para enentarme a te pectro malvado”, agregó Levy, quien explicó que n su prencia quería jar claro su rpaldo a la unidad LGBT+ mistro Salud Israel Nzan Horowz, quien abiertamente gay (EFE/EPA/ABIR SULTAN/Archivo).

DERECHOS LOS GAYS EN ISRAEL

We take a look at the celebrated gay scene Israel wh an eclectic variety of some of the most ntroversial and celebrated LGBT films wrten, directed and produced the untry. Oriented (2012) Oriented is a fascatg documentary film about three gay Paltian iends their 20s livg life Tel Aviv.

ETRE GAY EN ISRAëL, UN « BAT TO L JOURS »

I thk we n all agree that homosexuals have been, and ntue to be, one of the most vulnerable groups any society. This is also nsired by most – pecially today’s youth – to be the fg civil rights issue of our time, so let’s take a look how both Israelis and Paltians treat the gay people their rpective societi.

SNAS & CISG GAY ISRAEL

“Tarek, a young Paltian gay man spected of homosexualy, was sentenced to a “retn” mp n by Mlim clerics unr Paltian Authory jurisdictn. – Paltian Authory tak part wispread and sadistic timidatn, torture, imprisonment and aths of gays.

– Gay Paltian men are riskg their liv to cross to Israel, claimg they feel safer among Israelis than their own people. There are now 300 gay Paltian men secretly livg and workg Israel. – Gay Christian Paltian who fled the PA for Israel, criciz the opprsive Paltian society and says, ntrast, Israel allows gays the “eedom to exprs (their) sex and take pri ”.

The are jt a few of the many stori we uld list here to highlight Paltian btaly toward homosexuals, however the most famo persecuted gay Paltian is for sure John Calv, who was raised a pro-Hamas fay the Wt Bank.
