The most interesting news story of the day - Rape Board

TZOFOSHO · 07-19-2009, 03:52 PM

I am completely ripping off SomeDude's thread here, but i thought it might be interesting to put what i believe is the most interesting news story/stories found for the day.

Since i've already completely jacked his thread, i'll go ahead and jack his intro and description as well, just slightly edited.

I decided to start a new thread here on Rape Board that will have a link to what I think is the most *interesting* news story of each day that I find as a headline on Yahoo (to include world and local news). Feel free to comment and add your own links!

Here is todays!!!

"said the 36-year-old outside the secret office of Jamaica's sole gay rights group. Like many other gays, Sherman won't give his full name for fear of retribution."

" Jamaica's most prominent evangelical pastor, Bishop Herro Blair, said he sympathizes with those who face intolerance, but that homosexuals themselves are actually behind most of the attacks reported against them.

'Among themselves, homosexuals are extremely jealous," said Blair during a recent interview. "But some of them do cause a reaction by their own behaviors, for, in many people's opinions, homosexuality is distasteful.' "

"The dread of homosexuality is so all-encompassing that many Jamaican men refuse to get digital rectal examinations for prostate cancer, even those whose disease is advanced, said Dr. Trevor Tulloch of St. Andrews Hospital.

"Because it is a homophobic society, there's such a fear of the sexual implications of having the exam that men won't seek out help," said Tulloch, adding Jamaica has a soaring rate of prostate cancer because men won't be screened."

wow, how crazy? I can't imagine living in a society where everyone is so openly (at least appears from the article) homophobic. Blows my mind.

Damn it, this just spawned another thread, be back tommorrow.
