Zap_Brannigan Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Was just looking this guy up on wiki to see what exactly are his educational/political credentials. Seems to be a good organizer. Here's something else in that article that caught my eye where do they come up with this stuff? Thats one in every twelve Indians. Seems totally wrong. Thats about the international average.
Mariyam Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Thats about the international average. How do they estimate this number anyways? Comes as a shock to me. I have very rarely come across gays or lesbians. Or if I did, I didn't know that they were. Maybe they just aren't open about it. I thought it was more like 1 in 100 or in that range. Either ways, its a deplorable comment from the Health Minister.

Here's something else in that article that caught my eye where do they come up with this stuff? Thats one in every twelve Indians. Seems totally wrong. Dumb comments from Mr Azad . Seriously ,without Census or a survey of that kind how is it possible to say there are these many people from LSBT community . Got this from a blog. How do they estimate this number anyways? Comes as a shock to me. I have very rarely come across gays or lesbians. Or if I did, I didn't know that they were. Maybe they just aren't open about it. I thought it was more like 1 in 100 or in that range. Either ways, its a deplorable comment from the Health Minister. Well the estimate by Humsafar Trust (an organization for Indian Gay & Transgender sexual health) was 70 million. Note that this number included gays, lesbians and transgenders. Most of you might have come across many transgender in India. It's not that rare. What's rare is gay and lesbian population. Transgender are not gay/lesbian.
Sachin=GOD Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 I think it was a gaffe from him because he's one of the better ministers of this Govt and usually knows what he's talking about.
Texy Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 I wonder if bisexuals are considered in these stats .....and I hope they are counting the female homosexual population in this as well and not just men
The Outsider Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 Mr Azad was a mistake. Sorry' date=' someone had to break it to him :hahaha:[/quote'] Big deal. Homophobes exist everywhere in the world. Deal with it.
CSK Fan Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 Big deal. Homophobes exist everywhere in the world. Deal with it. But in a responsible post like a health minister? I dont think so
