Amusing, no doubt. But a harsh reality of the times we live in. Now if only love could be a little more appealing.

And it’s time to cash in. The most evident and (thankfully) positive effect coming from Decimalization of IPC 377 is Business honchos using the Gay angle to promote their products and services.
There are two ways to look at it;
Eyeing the ‘Pink Money’
And
Raising an eyebrow factor
Since being Gay and everything around it seems to be the ‘in-thing’ nowadays, business have adopted the “behti Ganga mein haath dohlo” attitude. And not that I’m complaining.
Here’s a look at some of the Gaysi-friendly television commercials.
[ Reader Val's response to Rohit Verma Booo Hooo! ]
I have to start by saying, I am against any form of censorship. Whether the demand for it is made by the extreme right, left or the center. Yes, there are all sorts of misguided people who propagate dubious information to the vulnerable. I completely understand the frustration stemming from those suffering as an direct or indirect consequence.
However, the response to these misguided people should be demolishing their credibility and creating awareness by countering this with the correct information; not by silencing them. In the very specific case of Rohit Verma, after his antics on Bigg Boss, what he says is hardly taken seriously by contestants who are not always (at the time of publishing this article, I think they are) privy to the misunderstandings he creates and his tendency to contort/exaggerate the things spoken to him in confidence and then conveying it to other parties. His credibility at Bigg Boss house is nil. Everyone’s using him for their own gains to win the game show. Needless to say, people like us who can see his true nature, unedited, thanks to a dozen cameras, should have no faith in what he propagates. Rohit is a pathological drama queen.
As mentioned in some of my earlier posts; Projection of the Queer World by the Indian Media, Entertainment Channels & Bollywood, gets my balls twisted all black and blue.
And here’s the current reason for my anguish. A chameleon personified. Bigg Boss 3 contestant. Rohit Verma.
For those who are not in tune with the Indian Idiot Box can brush through these sites and increase their GK by reading useless information [Bigg Boss 3 & Rohit Verma]. For those who are aware, let me pull the trigger, straight away.
I am pissed at Rohit Verma, not because;
But in fact what has rubbed my wrong side is this;
According to very openly gay Mr. Verma, homosexuality is a psychological problem. A problem triggered by some childhood trauma, because of which the inner desire of man for the opposite sex is vanquished.
WTF! Psychological Problem?!
