Do you know that recently men were arrested for holding a ‘Gay Party’ and that they now face up to 15 years in prison in Surabaya?
Surabaya police’s head of detectives confirmed that some of the men were watching gay porn and performing “deviant sexual acts” when they were caught.
Eight of the men have been named as suspects and files have been charged citing anti-pornography laws. Two of the men, who are also accused of initiating and facilitating the party, could face up to 15 years in jail.
I'm highly aware that Indonesia is the world’s most populous Muslim country but putting those men to jail is kind of outrageous, it causes hate among people, well... that's what I think. People might not agree with same-sex relationships, I understand that, but what about Human Rights? It's something that each of us have a right on and I guess it was one of their ways to express their rights. What is wrong with a party? It just a party with gay people in it and that’s OK.
