YOURSAY | Gender discrimination against Constitution, laws outdated (Malaysiakini)

'LGBTs are citizens and deserve equal protection before the law.'

The above is a selection of comments posted by Malaysiakini subscribers. Join the Malaysiakini community and help set the news agenda. They are the people that we should be proud of. Malaysiakini does not intend to represent these views as fact. From the millions of votes that they garnered, I'm sure many from the community voted for them. This is real. It is simply wrong to criminalise sexual activity between consenting adults which rightfully should be a personal matter. Note that all my examples except one are Muslim ladies. So, by having no LGBT banners and flags at rallies mean LGBT will reduce in this country? The way I see it, they shouldn't even get a single LGBT vote. It's deliberate, for women empowerment means they lose influence. Even if now they control the whole country, LGBT will still exist.

The assembly was in conjunction with International Women's Day. A peaceful assembly allegedly linked to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) movement took place at Dataran Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur recently.
