But the acknowledgement of such Civil Partnership in society is going to take a loooong time. I am sure, atleast I wont be alive to see that moment. There are incidents reported in nations like SA where lesbians have been the target of notorious gangs claiming to 'cure' them by forced sex. I really dread if such things get started with this wide social recognition as a by-product. Why women have always been a by default victim of social atrocities? I dunno. Do we need an Anthropologist here :D...? Decriminalisation of 377 is welcomed indeed. But the acknowledgement of such Civil Partnership in society is going to take a loooong time.

Agreed the sodomy angle needs to be taken care of but the same problem exists in other nations too but that didn't stop them from abolishing an act which criminalizes sexual acts between consenting adults of same sex. Bottom line, pervert farts exist in all spectrum but this is not a good enough reason to penalize an entire community. As for lesbianism not being illegal - well my dear this doesn't stop those in power from misusing their authorities against lesbians. Time…er…we are talking about a 150 years old ACT here.

It takes time to repeal a section like 377, since there is the whole sodomy angle to take care of. Young boys do have to be protected. The parades this year caused such a stir, something somewhere will give way. Also FYI, lesbianism isn't illegal. So the law basically discriminates between gay men and gay women, making sex between two men illegal. It is bad, yes, but it ain’t all that bad.
