        i think that when you're living for 18 years in Afghan, "did not give the slightest indication he could be gay" becomes your second name

        It so upsets me that people are sentencing some of our global society's most vulnerable to death due to fear and bigotry. #Diversity #WorldHumanitarianDay

        "On the other hand, pretending to be gay or lesbian to increase one’s odds in the asylum process is relatively rare, those experts say." so why shouldn't this one be one of those cases?

        Good point... Asylum should just be ended to avoid this.

        The ancient Spartans turned ALL their boys gay. A ton of sports stuff is named after them. We're told they were the manliest men around, if you ignore the pederasty.

        So they should just give asylum to every person who says they're gay? What's to stop 100 million economic migrants from just saying they're gay to get asylum? Refugee status should be reserved for those fleeing war.
