Being Mauritian and Gay

One of our recent tales revolved around two lesbian lovers who asked police to help them fight their parent’s wishes and stay together. They didn’t.

Today, we came across a piece that reiterates much of the same: Mauritius still maintains a colonial era ban on homosexuality, the majority of society doesn’t approve, What’s different about this particular piece is that it focusses on the idea of faggotry as a punishment – that is, gay men and women often feel that they’re paying the price for a wrong-doing. Homos, then, tend to eschew one another.

Yes, there are gay clubs and bars and the such, but no neighborhoods like Chelsea or Brighton, for gays fear being collectively stigmatized. Fear may permeate gay life in Mauritius, but not all gays live in such terrified conditions.

Nazeer Sadoo Buccus mauritian of 31 years old has been sharing his life with Lionel Provert a French Teacher. He left mauritius to come to europe to live freely as a gay. Nazeer made the headline due to his visa status in france.

The other most recent case we have seen was of Virginie who lives in france and fell in love with a native. Kate and virginie loved each other but the parents of Kate even kidnapped her since they did not liked the relationship!

Are Mauritians becoming less tolerant towards the gay community?

It seems that even the most out and proud of gay men can still have their hang-ups. Even big ol’ queers such as ourselves – we like to cuddle.

    Les femmes lesbiennes ont le droit de s’exprimer d’avantage. Moi meme ma femme meme que nous ayons 2 enfants elle a un penchant pour les femmeset j’accepte cela. D’ailleur c’est un fantasme.

    Gay is sick, the back hole is for sh!t not for pleasure!!! Gay people are perverts and sick in the head.
