Antony Loewenstein, Being Gay.

Loewenstein recently posted the following (his links not included, far too lazy):

The State Department recently released its annual list of gay-hating nations:

1) Uganda

2) Iran

3) Egypt

4) Saudi Arabia

5) Nigeria

6) United Arab Emirates

7) Cameroon

8) Poland

9) Nepal

10) India


Homophobic violence is on the rise in many nations, not least in Poland. The story of Krystian Legierski, a Polish-born black gay activist, is a source of both inspiration and concern. Is Poland’s anti-Semitic past now being supplanted by rampant homophobia?

I tried to post at his site but, as always, it is still “awaiting moderation”:



I've also emailed the boy, to ask why he would not publish the comment...

And yes- it is rather humorous that the page title reads;
Being gay >> Antony Loewenstein. Especially so with those little arrows.

Update: Ooops. Lowy's links are included. My bad.
