PARENTS ARE ENURAGED TO SEND CHILDREN THEY SPECT OF BEG LGBT TO “NVERSN MPS,” AS THIS MAN LLS THEM. (HIS OWN PARENTS WERE ADVISED TO DO THE SAME.) BULLYG IS RIFE. SAME-SEX SEX IS ILLEGAL, AND LGBT PEOPLE WILY NMNED AND STIGMATIZED. THE MAN’S PARENTS BEAT HIM.

IN AN EXTRAORDARY MOVE, FOREIGNERS WHO ARE LGBT, OR WHO N BE INTIFIED AS SUCH, HAVE ALSO BEEN FORBIDN OM ENTERG MALAYSIA. "THEY'RE NOT ONLY ATTACKG LOL CIZENS, NOW THEY WANT TO ARRT PEOPLE OM ALL OVER WORLD," SAID THE MAN. "THGS ARE ACTUALLY GETTG WORSE. I DON'T THK THGS ARE LIKELY TO IMPROVE MY LIFETIME UNFORTUNATELY."THE MAN SAID HE WAS BROUGHT UP A LOWER-MIDDLE-CLASS HOME; HIS FATHER WAS A BSMAN, HIS MOTHER A HOTEL BOOKG AGENT TURNED FULL-TIME HOEWIFE. HE WAS A MIDDLE CHILD WH OLR BROTHER AND YOUNGER SISTER. HIS FAY WAS NOT SUPPORTIVE OF HIM, ED QUE THE OPPOSE. AS A YOUNG BOY, THE MAN DIDN'T THK ABOUT HOW TO NFORM TO SOCIAL EXPECTATNS, AND WOULD RECEIVE ABE, "JT FOR ACTG MORE FEME." "WHEN I WAS YOUNGER THE ABE WAS MORE OM MY PARENTS," HE SAID. "MY DAD LIKED TO E A BELT AND THE GARN HOSE, MY MOM ED A REALLY LONG NE."WHY WERE THEY BEATG YOU, I ASKED."TO RRECT MY BEHAVR," SAID THE MAN.THE BEATGS HAD BEGUN, AGED 6, WH A HARD SLAP THE FACE OM HIS MOTHER. SHE HAD UGHT HIM DRSG UP HER CLOTH ("IT WAS JT DRSG UP, I WAS A LTLE KID"). HOW REALIZED HE WAS GAY EARLY, AROUND THE SAME AGE, OM WATCHG TV AND READG MAGAZ AND BOOKS. "I HAD A LOT OF CURSY AS A CHILD. WHEN MY BROTHER AND I WATCHED RTOONS HIS HERO WERE THE LEAD GUY. I ALWAYS LIKED THE FEMALE CHARACTERS." “MY FATHER TOLD ME, ‘I WILL NOT HAVE A “PONDAN” THE FAY. I WOULD RATHER NOT HAVE A SON THAN HAVE A “PONDAN” THE FAY.’ THEY MA VERY CLEAR WHERE THEY STOOD.” JT LIKE THE BULLI WHO BEAT HIM, THE MAN'S FATHER ALSO ED THE WORD "PONDAN," MEANG FAGGOT, ABOUT HIS OWN CHILD. "HE TOLD ME, 'I WILL NOT HAVE A 'PONDAN' THE FAY. I WOULD RATHER NOT HAVE A SON THAN HAVE A 'PONDAN' THE FAY,' DAD SAID. THEY MA VERY CLEAR WHERE THEY STOOD.""THEY WOULD SAY, 'START ACTG LIKE OTHER BOYS. WHY ARE YOU DOG THIS TO ? YOUR TEACHERS LLED AND SAID YOU MIGHT BE SENT TO THIS MP.'"HIS SCHOOL TEACHERS HAD NOTICED THE BULLYG THE MAN RECEIVED AT SCHOOL, AND—LIKE THE POLICE OFFICERS WHO WATCHED HIM GET BEATEN UP, THEN ADD TO HIS MISERY BY LLG HIS PARENTS, AND SUGGTG THAT THE EXTREMELY YOUNG KID, THEN AGED 7 TO 9, WOULD BENEF OM GOG TO A SEXUALY "NVERSN MP TO 'RRECT' MY BEHAVR."HIS PARENTS DIDN'T DO THIS; THEY SENT HIM TO ANOTHER SCHOOL. IT WASN'T BEE THEY OBJECTED TO THE IA OF THE MP. "IF YOU SEND YOUR SON TO A MP LIKE THAT BRGS ENORMO SHAME ONTO THE FAY," THE MAN SAID. "THERE WAS A LOT OF EMPHASIS BASED ON THE HONOR OF THE FAY, NOT THE DIVIDUAL. IF I WENT TO THE GAY NVERSN MP, WORD WOULD SPREAD PRETTY QUICKLY, PEOPLE WOULD KNOW, AND I WOULD BE AT RISK OF GETTG THROWN OUT OF THE HOE AND DISOWNED. I KNEW THE RISK, AND I KNEW I HAD TO START NFORMG JT TO SURVIVE."EVENTUALLY, HE HAD TO TRANSFER SCHOOLS TWICE. HIS PARENTS WOULD TELL HIM TO BEHAVE "NORMALLY, LIKE THE OTHER KIDS" AT THE NEW SCHOOL. HE WOULD TRY, BUT AFTER THE BEATG BY THE FOUR OTHER BOYS AND THE POLICE THREATS, "I KNEW I ULDN'T GO TO MY PARENTS AND SAY, 'I'VE EXPERIENCED ALL THIS. PLEASE HELP ME.' THEY THOUGHT THE BLAME WAS ALWAYS ON ME. 'WHY N'T HE JT MAN UP?'"THE MAN NEVER ME OUT TO HIS PARENTS, NEVER HAD A NVERSATN ABOUT ANY OF . "I WOULDN'T SAY ANYTHG. ANYTHG I WOULD SAY WOULD JT PROVOKE THEM. I WOULD JT SILENTLY ENDURE, AND SAY THAT I WOULDN'T DO AGA, EVEN THOUGH I HADN'T DONE ANYTHG ANYWAY."THE BULLYG AND BEATGS AT SCHOOL GOT WORSE AS THE MAN GOT OLR. WHEN HE WAS A TEENAGER, THE MALAYSIAN ERNMENT ENDORSED AN ANTI-LGBT MIL, ABNORMAL DIRE, WHICH SCHOOL PUPILS WERE TAKEN TO SEE. "ALL THE LGBTQ CHARACTERS WERE KILLED BY LIGHTNG AT THE END," THE MAN RELLED. HIS IENDS AT SCHOOL FOUND FUNNY, HE THOUGHT WAS HORRIBLE. "THAT'S HOW SYSTEMIC HOMOPHOBIA IS MALAYSIA," HE SAID. "IT'S NOT ONE-OFF, 'S THE WHOLE ERNMENT, THE WHOLE TN SYSTEM, THE WHOLE SOCIETY."THERE ARE NO POSIVE ROLE MOLS FOR LGBT YOUTH, NO OPTNS. EVEN STRAIGHT ALLI ARE PUT OFF OM VOICG SUPPORT BEE OF THE OPPROBRIUM THAT IS HEAPED UPON THEM SHOULD THEY DO SO, SAID THE MAN. THE MAN HAD CSH AT SCHOOL. HE SPENT A LOT OF TIME WH ANOTHER BOY WHO WAS TWO YEARS OLR THAN HIM. "THE RELATNSHIP WAS MOSTLY PLATONIC, BUT WAS CLEAR WE BOTH LIKED EACH OTHER. WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME TOGETHER. BUT AFTER I GOT BEATEN, THE VERY NEXT DAY I SAW HIM, HE HAD BIS ON HIS FACE. I TRIED TO TALK TO HIM, BUT HE WAS WH HIS IENDS. HE LLED ME A FAGGOT, AND TOLD ME TO STAY AWAY. I NNECTED THE DOTS. HE HAD BEEN ATTACKED AS WELL, AND WAS TRYG TO F . IT WAS THE LAST TIME I EVER TALKED TO HIM."THE FOLLOWG YEAR, HE HAD A IEND, ANOTHER CLASSMATE, WHO PUT LS EFFORT THAN THE MAN TO FTG . "HE WAS FLAMBOYANT. HE GOT ATTACKED. HIS PARENTS TRANSFERRED HIM TO ANOTHER SCHOOL, AND BEFORE THAT TRANSFER HE WAS SENT TO A NVERSN MP. AROUND THE SAME TIME, I HAD STARTED TRYG TO NFORM. “I HEARD HE HAD MTED SUICI. I WAS VASTATED, AND I RELATED TO HIM BEE AT THAT TIME I WAS THKG OF DOG THE SAME THG. I THOUGHT, ‘THAT ULD HAVE BEEN ME.’ THE ONLY DIFFERENCE WAS, HE CHOSE NOT TO SPENT AS MUCH ENERGY AS I HAD, TRYG TO ‘HI.’” "THIS BOY RETURNED TO SCHOOL. I TRIED TO TALK TO HIM, BUT HE WAS QUIET AND WHDRAWN. THEN HE MOVED TO THE NEW SCHOOL. THEN I HEARD HE HAD MTED SUICI. I WAS VASTATED, AND I RELATED TO HIM BEE AT THAT TIME I WAS THKG OF DOG THE SAME THG. I THOUGHT, 'THAT ULD HAVE BEEN ME.' THE ONLY DIFFERENCE WAS, HE CHOSE NOT TO SPENT AS MUCH ENERGY AS I HAD, TRYG TO 'HI.'""I HAD A SEVERE PRSN, AND DIDN'T HAVE SOMEONE TO GO TO FOR HELP," THE MAN SAID OF THE TIME HE NSIRED MTG SUICI HIMSELF. "I FELT VERY ALONE. I DIDN'T SEE A SOLUTN. I ULDN'T GO TO MY PARENTS. I DIDN'T ACTUALLY MAKE AN ACTUAL SUICI ATTEMPT, AND WHEN I THOUGHT ABOUT I WOULD TRY TO DISTRACT MYSELF BY DOG MORE PRODUCTIVE THGS, LIKE WRG. I HAD THGS PUBLISHED, I WON A FEW WRG PETNS."ALL AROUND HIM THE ANTI-GAY MSAGE WAS THE SAME. AS A TEEN, THE MAN HEARD LADY GAGA'S 'BORN THIS WAY,' WHICH BEME AN NER ANTHEM OF HOPE. BUT, HE SAID, HE ULDN'T NTEMPLATE THE POSSIBILY OF EVER BEG OUT. IN 2017, THE UNTRY EVEN PICKED A FIGHT WH DISNEY OVER A GAY-THEMED SCENE BETY AND THE BEAST (LATER BACKG DOWN OVER A THREAT TO CUT THE SCENE).
