The "satanic" gays of Eswatini

The king of the last absolute monarchy of Africa qualifies homosexuals as "satanic"

GAYLES.TV.- It is likely that if we talk about Eswatini don't even know that it is a country, in fact it is a small African nation among Mozambique and South Africa. Sadly known for being the last absolutist stronghold where the king Mswati III He has in his hands the legislative and executive power and also the power to appoint the head of the Government, the rest of the ministers and the president of the Supreme Court. Well, this man who rules so much about a population that barely reaches 1,3 millions of inhabitants, has described homosexuals as "satanic." Fear gives.

Nothing strange in a country where your prime minister considers being gay an abnormality and a disease and whose police chief of communication, Khulani Mamba, he said in statements to Times of Swaziland which “Your country would not tolerate the LGTBI community”. And this is reflected in sentences of 14 years in prison for acts of sodomy between two men. Curiously, the law does not talk about relations between women as in its day in Spain with the Law of Social Danger that only punished the "Male lying with male". It is what he has not to recognize that women also have sexual desire.

Being gay, lesbian, bisexual or transsexual in Eswatini is facing a daily hell with the aggravating fact that, being so few, everyone knows each other. In addition, society is very conservative and religious, which pushes trans and gay to be invisible so as not to be stigmatized.

On the other hand, the Constitution does not allow the registration of LGTBI associations and any attempt to organize to fight must be clandestine. There is a core of resistance formed by some 15 people who call themselves TranSwati Pinty Dludlu, a young transgender of 28 years declares: “It is about opening spaces for education, respect and tolerance throughout the country. Here, the greatest stigma we suffer usually comes from the person himself, who does not accept himself and must learn to do so. For example, I find it very difficult to get a certificate to work as a transgender woman. And that I am lucky to be able to express myself; Many people in my situation are repudiated by their family, cannot talk to anyone or must move to large cities to live freely, although this entails many difficulties ... ”.

And is that living as an LGTBI person in a country where 60% of its population is exposed to poverty is synonymous with facing life with many, many problems. Anxiety, depression, verbal and physical aggressions, including rape, make up the daily life of the group. Suffice it to say that 40% of homosexuals in Eswatini have attempted suicide and, unfortunately, many have succeeded.

In spite of everything, it seems that in the small South African country winds of change begin to blow. Last year, the Pride march that brought together 500 people was held for the first time and this year has been repeated, although with less assistance due to fear of reprisals.

We consider it vitally important to be a speaker for those who in this and other countries live gripped by fear, contempt and invisibility. All our support for the struggle of the LGTBI collective in Eswatini.

The "lovers of Modena" were two men

El study of the dental enamel of the remains reveals the sex of the "lovers of Modena"

GAYLES.TV.- When in 2009 archaeologists discovered a couple of skeletons in the city of Modena they were surprised that they both lay hand in hand. In addition, the smallest had its head tilted looking at the other and they were baptized as «Lovers of Modena«. Now, thanks to scientific advances, it has been possible to determine the sex of the couple in question. The dental enamel of the remains has revealed that they are two men in their thirties.

«Two years ago, some English researchers discovered that a protein present in tooth enamel made it possible to identify the sex of the deceased. We tried it with lovers, and it worked", Explain Federico Luigi, one of the authors of this study that has been published in the journal Scientific reports. With the discovery of the protein amelogenin, which is divided, like chromosomes, into X and Y, and is found in human dental tissue, it has been possible to determine that the dental enamel of lovers had the same composition.

It is curious how now the experts do not agree on the type of relationship that the couple had. Previously, when it was believed that they were a man and a woman, everyone liked being called lovers and they were even a symbol of eternal love. With the recent discovery there is no consensus on whether or not it was a gay couple. Perhaps one of the main reasons for denying it is that in the year 390, the emperor Theodosius enacted legislation against homosexual practices with which two men who had a relationship could be arrested and sentenced.

Holding hands

In any case, the mystery of the lovers remains unresolved because it is not explained why they link their hands. Some researchers suggest that the two men were arranged like this, perhaps to symbolize the union of two companions in battle, or even because they were family. “All we can say is that the bodies were buried like this with a clear intention. It is a manifestation of something, it is clear, but we do not yet know what ”, explains Giulia Di Rocco, chemistry of the University of Modena and co-author of the study. “They can be brothers, friends, cousins ​​and even lovers. It is the furthest hypothesis, but we do not refute it", Add.

Lorca or the pits of oblivion

They discover the place of execution and what should have been the grave of Federico García Lorca, but his body does not appear

EDITORIAL GAYLES.TV.-  Federico García Lorca and Luís Cernuda with different luck, origin, trajectory, poetry, generation and sexual orientation shared. Both Andalusians, belonging to the generation of the 27, homosexuals and with destinies truncated by the Francoism. Lorca took his life, Cernuda condemned him to exile, to live and die far from his homeland.

And today Cernuda comes to mind because of the way he picked up the famous rhyme of Bécquer, that "Where oblivion lives, there will be my grave" that Luis would transmute in verses that seem to gloss the memory of Lorca:

"Where oblivion lives,
In the vast gardens without aurora;
Where I am only
Memory of a stone buried among nettles
On which the wind escapes his insomnia".

These days Lorca has been news for two different reasons but linked together. On the one hand, we have learned that a multidisciplinary team of archaeologists and researchers believe they have located the place where Federico was shot along with a republican school teacher, Dióscoro Galindo and two anarcho-syndicalist banderilleros, Francisco Galadí and Joaquín Arcoyas. The same place where they were supposedly buried in the early morning 17 18 August 1936. But bodies are not.

The archeologist Francisco Javier Navarro he believes that the remains of the 4 shot were exhumed "around the time of their death, when they were in a cadaverous, not skeletal phase." Despite not having found organic remains in the area, a well in the vicinity of Alfacar (Granada), yes it was a fragment of a Máuser projectile and a bullet casing of contemporary manufacture to the date of the deaths and of habitual use in the Civil War, which confirms the conjectures on the fact that they had been used in the execution.

But mystery surrounds the reasons why the 4 bodies were exhumed. The most widespread theory holds that it was intended to erase all traces of a case that had "great repercussion in the international press" and that in fact involved "significant pressure on the rebel side and the subsequent Franco government." Other theories point to the possible intervention of Lorca's own family, which even today refuses to search for and possible exhumation of his body. There are reports of a policeman, named José Mingorance, who affirm that the death of the poet was more the "fruit of family quarrels" than of political issues. It seems that they exhaustively detail the exhumation of the corpse. But today we can only say that we know the place of events but not the whereabouts of the poet's remains.

And it is this ignorance that leads us to the second theme for which Lorca has been news: the presentation in the Berlinale of the US documentary "Bones of Contention" in which Andrea Weiss shows us an excellent research work on Franco's repression of homosexuals and the actLorca and Dalíual struggle for the recovery of historical memory. And precisely one of the plot threads of the story is that of the statement that García Lorca was murdered because of his condition as "homosexual and socialist" according to a 1965 police report that didn't come to light until a couple of years ago. This text confirms the fact that Lorca was a victim of Francoism and that his homosexuality had an important weight in the decision to end his life. But Weiss's work is not limited to the figure of the poet, but delves into two issues that run in parallel: on the one hand, the existence, still today, of 120.000 buried corpses, which are not forgotten, in wells, gutters and mass graves. and the fight to honor their memory and prevent them from falling into oblivion. And on the other, an exhaustive review of the repression of homosexuality in the Franco regime, the history of the struggles for the dignity of gays, lesbians and transsexuals and also their references: figures such as that of the actress Margarita Xirgu, friend of García Lorca or the journalist Irene Polo, brilliant and brave women that the Franco regime tried to bury in the memorial to the point of being known as the generation of "The disappeared".

And is that the story of the poet does not differ from the tens of thousands of lives buried among the roots of pines planted to erase their tracks. And therefore this text can not but end with the premonitory verses of Lorca himself:

"When the pure forms sank
under the cri cri of the daisies,
I understood that I had been killed.
They went through cafes and cemeteries and churches,
opened the barrels and the cabinets,
They smashed three skeletons to tear their teeth out of gold.
They did not find me anymore.
They did not find me?
No. They did not find me. "

What Itziar taught us

Itziar Castro's brother: “We must continue his fight”

Yesterday it took place in Pallejà (Barcelona) the wake of the actress Itziar Castro, who died early last Friday at the age of 46. Her mother, Lucia Rivadulla, dressed in red: “"I don't come in black, I come in red, because Itziar was red, red with light, red with life.". Manuel Castro, one of her brothers has remembered her as ““a revolutionary” who fought hard and has assured that “"We must continue their fight.". He has also made reference to the letter from the Royal Family: “It is a great medal in the fight because a republican and lesbian in the Royal House, where has that been seen!”.

Itziar Castro He died in the early hours of December 8 as a result of cardiorespiratory arrest while attending the light tests for a synchronized swimming show that he was preparing. The actress stood out in series such as Vis a vis or movies like Champions o Skins. She was a multifaceted artist in film, theater and television and an activist against fatphobia, defense of the LGTBI collective and women's equality.

Journalist Cristina Fallaràs has highlighted: “There are people who remain because their lives have changed the way we inhabit the world.”. He has also recalled that Castro managed to change the way women see his body. The lawyer Carla Vall has insisted on the role of the actress as a great activist and great feminist, while the actress Maria Botto has valued his “activism and generosity. Throughout Sunday, dozens of family members and neighbors have wanted to say their last goodbye to the actress.

A much needed actress

What Itziar taught us
What Itziar taught us

Eduardo casanova He also wanted to remember her in an article in the newspaper El Mundo where his determination and visibility stands out: “Yes. That is the first word that would come out of Itziar Castro's mouth if you proposed something to him. Yes to me, and yes to almost everything. (…) It seems like a joke that Itziar Castro found it difficult to make himself visible, but that was his harsh reality. Like the character he played in Skins, he said: “People don't like to see people like me.” She made sure, with successes and mistakes, that we saw her, that she exposed herself, even overexposed herself so that we would understand that her presence was completely necessary. Because unfortunately, there are very few visible actresses like her and now, after this tragedy, she will not be around to show those of us who try to comply with the cruel canons of the system that actresses like Itziar Castro “They are completely necessary in our life and in our industry”.

"They insult me ​​for existing"

And is that Meredith She was a fighter. She had learned from a young age to defend herself. She told it to her action wife Cristina You will fail in an article in Public through an anecdote that demonstrates his character: “Then one day, recently, you scolded me for intervening in the tough argument between you and an unfortunate man. He had insulted you in a cruel way (…) Until you got up and faced him. When things seemed like they were going to get worse, that they were going to touch you, I got up and joined you. You pushed me away very seriously. “No, don't ever help me, don't do it again, because I don't need your help.", you explained to me after shooing him away. “I have a lot of strength and also training. Hell, I can send that guy to the ground 20 meters away. If you help me, you make me lesser, you diminish me. I do not need help«. Then, looking at my teenager, you added: “They insult me ​​a lot, they always insult me ​​everywhere. "They insult me ​​for existing".

Itziar always defended the LGTBIQ+ collective

Meredith He defended his ideas tooth and nail. She was always available for any feminist initiative or that defended the group. LGTBIQ +. He sometimes paid a high price for it, but he knew full well that it was worth it. He was brave and never hid from anything. Meredith He went with his heart first, the title of his poetry book that he told us about on GAYLES.TV. 

He was a free person, and he spread that freedom to those around him. He had just presented one of his most personal projects: the short film ““L@ appointment”, a romantic comedy that she claimed ““Based on almost real events”. The short film was planned based on experiences that Castro had had when it came to meeting potential partners, mediated by his growing fame. “L@ appointment» found one's own Castro playing herself, and throughout the short faces appeared like those of Rocio Saiz o Carla Antonelli. Castro took over directing, producing and writing, and soon ““L@ appointment” received a badge from ICAA as "recommended for the promotion of gender equality”, thanks to the theme LGTBIQ + and the appearance of actresses with non-normative physiques.

We say goodbye to her with a memory of her in her purest form, defending freedom of creation and against any censorship:

What 2021 left us

Balance of 2021, a year marked by the pandemic, demonstrations and the murder of Samuel Luiz

It is difficult to foresee in a few years what we will remember from 2021. Looking back, perhaps the murder of Samuel Luis it has meant a turning point. A massive cry against the LGTBIphobia that the Spanish society fed up, which finally came out en masse (and with a mask) to shout enough is enough. Many have been the attacks on the group in recent months. Many insults, many aggressions, a lot of LGBTophobia suffered.

It's been a year loaded with protests that the collective has united more than ever LGTBIQ +. And is that the rise of the far right ha fanned the collective struggle that was not tarnished by a false report that shocked the country ..

The arrival of the Trans Law to Congress it has also been an arduous road. Hunger strikes by activists and family members, partisan disagreements, Protests, Camouflaged terphism inside of the PSOE that came to block it ...

LGTBIQ + Rights

European justice recognizes the rights of the children of LGTBI couples throughout the EUEn Spain there have been advances in the field of families: TSJC has recognized the right of a lesbian couple to assisted reproduction benefit. Furthermore, this December we received very good news: European justice has decided to recognize the rights of sons and daughters of couples LGTBI in all the UE.

Finally Europe has become serious with LGBTophobia of some of its member states and this 2021 we have seen how it was declared freedom zone LGBTIQ + , as a Brussels was filing Hungary y Poland for his attacks on the collective.

Good international news

Suicide bullying trans Chile CopiapóAngola has decriminalized homosexuality, Switzerland approved equal marriage in a referendum, Chile also approved equal marriage y will have a new constitution much more diverse. Argentina, has been the first country in Latin America to recognize people non-binary and also this 2021 The US has issued the first passport with gender X.

Advances in the world of sports

IOC announces new legal framework for transgender athletesIn the field of sport, there have finally been significant advances: the tokyo olympics were the most LGTBIQ + of history, the footballer Josh cavallo made his homosexuality public, there was the first sanction for homophobia in professional Spanish sports, the COI announced a new legal framework for transgender athletes, and Marta Vieira, the best soccer player in the world, announced their engagement with a teammate.

Although there have also been some missed opportunities such as when the UEFA banned light up the stadium in the Germany-Hungary against a homophobic law or the prohibition of public displays of affection in the future Qatar World Cup.

Statistics

Many studies suggest that the number of LGTBIQ + people does not stop growing: most LGBT + Americans identify as bisexual y more than 20 million Americans identify as LGTBI (Almost 10% of Americans do not identify as straight). We have also verified through surveys that the LGBTophobia does not stop: 42% of people LGTBI have suffered discrimination in the last year. And a fact that does not surprise us: stupid people are more likely to be homophobic.

 Protagonists

Elliot Page poses in a swimsuit after surgeryAs well Elliot page made the news in 2021. First for your divorce from Emma Portner and then come out publicly trans and live it with pride. And we are very proud of Christina Rossi, the Uruguayan writer, resident in Barcelona, is the sixth woman to receive the highest award in Hispanic literature: the award Cervantes.

In addition, the world of animation has announced that the new Superman is bisexual and, finally, Smithers, the assistant Mr. Burns en The Simpsons, has a boyfriend.

On the small screen the Old gays they will have their own television series and we have been able to see «Dolores: The truth about the case Wanninkhof». In addition to many series on many different platforms. We have also selected 10 LGTBI + Christmas Movies for the Holidays.

A year in which there has been everything, but above all we have wanted to inform, denounce and entertain during the long days of the pandemic. Thanks for reading us. We will keep trying in 2022.

WE WISH YOU A GOOD YEAR 2022!

Gay literature, identity or ghetto?

To what extent can we talk about gay literature The fact that a text is written by a homosexual individual is a debate that corresponds to philologists. After all nobody talks about heterosexual literature or men's literature. But the truth is that beyond the essay books that deal with LGBT themes, the existence of novels, poetry and theater with protagonists of the same gender who express their feelings of love, attraction or desire allows to be recognized in the mirror of the text and identified with the plots and that covers a need that we could almost define as therapy, the fact of to be narrated and narrated and therefore recognized.

The great themes of literature are universal and integration, normality, comes when a heterosexual, reading Carol de Patricia Highsmith o De Profundis de Oscar Wilde, he gets excited identify with the text in the same way that any reader, regardless of their sexual orientation, can adopt the verses of Romeo and Juliet.

The Gais texts are a fact, they are there and the specialized bookstores also. From here we want to break a spear in favor of those libraries that resist in times of deep crisis of sale. They are not a trade anymore, they offer a service of advice and in some cases even of edition. Let's support those establishments before they are forced to close and it is too late to miss them.

Trans Law: self-determination is not touched

The PSOE assures that it will not touch gender self-determination and maintains its doubts about intra-gender violence

The address of the PSOE has decided to settle the debate on the Trans Law, in an attempt to end the internal shock that has caused in the party. The Socialists have abandoned this Thursday their lack of definition on the most controversial aspects of the project such as self-determination and have decided not to wait for the presentation of amendments to the text that will be debated in the Congressional Equality Commission to announce that they will not question their essential part.

As stated in the text that was approved by the Council of Ministers, therefore, from the age of 16, any trans person will be able to change the registration mention of sex in the registry without the need, as until now, to undergo therapy treatments. As of the approval of the law, the process will consist of going to the registry, making the request and in a maximum period of 4 months it will have to be resolved.

The parliamentary amendments PSOE will be primarily focused on Article 65 of the draft, specifically the one that mentions the application of the law of gender violence, since the greatest concern in the socialist ranks has to do with the comparison of other forms of violence with gender violence.

Delay in processing

El PSOE assumes that the PP y Vox will appeal the future law in the Constitutional Court and that is why they want to give it the greatest legal certainty. "ANDhe legislature can improve the law and make it more robust against attacks from those who are true enemies of the rights of groups”, Socialist sources point out to justify the orientation that their amendments will have.

The lack of agreement on PSOE was delaying the processing of the law, raised in principle by the urgent route. Last Monday, the Socialists joined the PP to extend the period for tabling amendments, a way of freezing the debate. Now the first government party assures that will not hinder your processing, although the immediate priority is to advance the negotiation on the State budgets.

Irene Montero: "We are not going to allow any setback"

Trans law: self-determination is not touched

Before knowing the official socialist position, the author of the project, IRene Montero, had once again demanded that the parliamentary process begin. Huntsman He indicated that he would not accept opening debates that question “central aspects of the law". "We are not going to consent to any setback in rights with respect to what is agreed in the text of the law, because this is a great social and also political consensus”, declared Huntsman. Yolanda Diaz insisted in very similar terms:Not a step back with this norm, speed".

For its part, the State Federation of Lesbians, Gays, Trans, Bisexuals, Intersexuals and more (Felgtbi+), Chrysallis and Fundación Triángulo defended this Wednesday the “absolute urgency” to pass the Trans Law and warned that they will not allow “debates are reopened on issues already agreed upon, which involved a lot of work, effort and compromise on all sides"

Feijoo vows to repeal trans law if passed

Alberto Nunez Feijoo considers that the trans law is "a frivolity that affects the rights of women that affects the rights of children and that makes a joke of a good part of the basic principles of human dignity”.

The leader of the opposition has promised to repeal the norm in the event that it is finally approved in the Congress of Deputies and PP have enough votes in the next elections.

“I perfectly understand the feminist movements that what they seek is an equality that I subscribe to between genders and what I cannot understand is the frivolity that adolescents, people even without legal age, can simply by a decision not even thought out, nor even under the supervision of health professionals, take hormones or carry out irreversible surgical interventions”, has declared feijoo.

Trans law: self-determination is not touched

Equality Law LGTBI, the controversial points

This week, we have accepted the We Can Propose Law on LGTBI Equality Law

GAYLES.TV.- The rights of gays, lesbians, transsexuals, bisexuals and transgender, that is, those of more than 4 million people in the Spanish State are in the process of becoming equal to the rest of the population thanks to the admission to processing of the proposal of Law of Equality LGTBI of the FELGTB posed by Podemos.

The parliamentary debate and the reactions of various groups such as the position of the PP that, through its spokesman, Marta González, described the text of "Awkward and clumsy" and announced an amendment to the whole and an alternative text, have been widely commented on in other media. For this reason, we have considered it opportune to report here today the most controversial points of the aforementioned Law.

LGTBI Public in the gallery of the Congress of Deputies

  • Gender ideology in the classroom. Education centers are required to include "content on sexual, gender and family diversity in subjects such as Knowledge of the Environment in primary education or the LGTBI movement in History, in secondary school."
  • Hormonal treatments from puberty. "As of puberty, minors can provide informed consent by themselves to access hormonal blockers and cross-hormone treatment."
  • Reassignment of sex. Both autonomous communities and the General Administration of the State, "will ensure the eradication of sex reassignment practices in newborns."
  • Unisex spaces. «The necessary measures will be taken so that the spaces identified according to sex in centers for minors, sheltered apartments, centers for the care of the disabled and residences for the elderly, can be used by transsexuals, transgender and intersex people in attention to gender sense".
  • The bill also states that "students have right to externalize at school their gender identity, having to respect their physical image, the choice of their clothing and the access and use of the facilities of the center according to their gender sense ".
  • A new state agency. The "State Agency against discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and sexual characteristics" will be created. It will be responsible for "the inspection, instruction, resolution and execution of the sanctioning files of the infractions contained in the law".
  • Fines of up to 45.000 euros for therapies to reverse sexual orientation. The text presented by Podemos specifically states that "therapies that seek to reverse the sexual orientation or gender identity of the person, even with the consent of the same or their legal representatives are prohibited." According to the bill it is a serious infringement with fines that can go from the 22.000 to the 45.000 euros.
  • Creation of the National Center for LGTBI Historical Memory. Its objective will be to promote "LGTBI visibility in the public space" and guarantee "the existence of a bibliographic fund on LGTBI issues, obligatory in populations of more than 20.000 inhabitants". Among his tasks also figure "the placement of momumentos and denomination of streets".
  • LGTBI contents in the programming of television networks. The Administration and the Communities "will promote in all public media and those who receive public subsidies must broadcast content that contributes to a perception of the collective exempt from stereotypes and the dissemination of the needs of LGBT people." In addition, the bill proposes to ensure that the media "include in their programming, for all age groups, the diversity of sexual orientation and gender including LGTBI family diversity."

We have preferred to limit ourselves to transcribing the most controversial points without going into considerations of their legitimacy, simply because they seem to us to be absolutely reasonable and justified in spite of the fact that Rafael Hernando (PP) before the vote, strike the Law of "Delirious, interventionist and stigmatizing".

Lesbophobia in the Barcelona metro: «It disgusts me to see how you kiss»

Second case of lesbophobia in Barcelona in a few days

GAYLES.TV.- Last Wednesday on the L2 line of the metro Barcelona it happened again. Another LGTBIphobic aggression in the city. The second in two days. Last Monday, 1, in July, a man attacked a couple of women who drank something in a bar The Verneda with his son. The individual assaulted them shouting "I will kill you, bolleras"And twisted his arm to one of them. Now the aggressor is a woman. Bring a stroller.

It ensures that it has a «fagot brother»And that out of respect these things are not done in public. Although she does not respect anything and for ten minutes she insults and harasses women for having kissed. «It makes me sick to see you kissing", repeat. One of the victims takes out the mobile and records. He replies that she «he eats his mouth with who he wants«.

"The only person who interceded was a person who, in her head, was more likely to be attacked more than us, an elderly, Muslim, veiled womanqwho physically intervened when the woman tried to grab my cell phone and hurt my partner's arm”Added one of the threatened girls. «In the middle of a car full of people. Nobody moved a finger. It is very easy to put a badge on the day of pride, but LGBTQ + people continue to suffer daily violence by connivance with this type of aggression", Write on Twitter.

The aggressor insists and stands as a representative of society: «It is not that to shut up you do not see uncle, we will have to give the reason to all these people. And to feminists. What happens is that everyone is silent«. Realizing that the girls spoke Catalan, he added: “In addition, Catalan".

"Homophobia is not fixed with racism"

The couple filed a complaint with the Mossos d'Esquadra and has opened a thread on Twitter to thank for the support received:

«Clara and I want to thank you for all the support we are receiving and the dissemination that you are doing. We did not imagine that all this would have such an impact. Sorry if we are not able to respond to all the messages and answers. We try to read them all and we are deeply grateful. You make us very accompanied and strong. We also want to make it very clear that homophobia is not a matter of race, ethnicity or language. We would not like this aggression to be instrumentalized to criminalize a collective. We meet every day with similar situations. And yes, unfortunately also (especially) with men, whites, (also) Catalan speakers. In no case we want to remove responsibility from the aggressor, but to blame a specific group for a generalized problem is not wanting to review ourselves as a society. Homophobia is not fixed with racism. Once again we want to thank all who share and support the struggle. Junt * s we are more strong * s«.

Lesbians, gays and other herbs according to VOX

VOX is forced to strike at his head of list for Albacete, Fernando Paz, for his homophobic and denialist statements of the holocaust

GAYLES.TV.- How will it be of appearance and homophobic Fernándo Paz so that the capitostes of VOX have been forced to dispense with him as head of the list by Albacete! It is like filling this text with icons of faces crying with laughter ... In short, laugh for not crying.

We go by parties. The issue of the lists of VOX with retired Francoist military and facades of all kinds had not touched bottom until they headed their list of Albacete with the pseudo historian Fernando Paz and here they went their hand. And it is that this gentleman has let go pearls of a caliber of such thickness that Abascal could not cope with the lime and chamomile to digest it. Now they assure the leaders of the party of ultra right that were "desconocedores" of the comments of the aforesaid (as if there were not recordings of their aberrations circulating in the networks for months!). The thing is that they have been forced to drop ballast because of the risk that they would lose more votes than anything else.

Some of the atrocities that Paz has released in his career as a politician and usual talk of Intereconomía are to say, for example, that «If your son told you that he was gay, he would try to help you; there are therapies to redirect his psychology ». But Paz is facha but not stupid and asked this week about these statements of the 2013, he answered that now he could not express himself "About these therapies because they are prohibited". But he did allow himself the luxury of delving into the subject in the program Public mirror of 3 Antenna where I affirm that "A gay couple with a child needs therapy" y "It is not a natural family". By the way, Miki, representative of Spain in Eurovision I replied via Twitter: "If you were my father, yes, I would take you to the psychologist" Bravo Miki, you can say louder but not clearer!

But the icing on the cake have been his recent manifestations about lesbians and their sexual postures. Attention because they have no waste: "A part of lesbians are not so because they are attracted to women but for ideological reasons since they despise men to such an extent that they consider that they are not even useful for sexuality". And this he did not say anywhere, no, he did it in a headquarters of National Alliance who claim themselves as heirs of European fascisms. But there is still more, according to Paz and we quote textually: "The latest tendency in militant lesbianism is to take very good care of the disposition when having sex in bed; no one should be on top of the other because that is an act of domination and relationships must be maintained in parallel ". Yes, here goes the face of stupefaction of the Nazis who listened to him with their eyes going out of their sockets.

We will not expand on his statements about the denial of holocaust and typhus that, according to Fernando Paz, took ahead millions of Jews or the best period in the history of Spain, which for him was, of course, the Franco regime.

Anyway, if seen these unpresentable seen continue to get votes is that either we are more tont @ s than we thought, or we march, or live in a country of forgetful and fascist.

We leave here your full talk about gender ideology in case you get bored a lot in life or you are very, very masochistic.
