What you need to know:

• New report has ranked Nairobi among cities where the LGBT community faces discrimination.
• Report mentions the High Court decision of May 2019 where judges refused to quash a section of the Penal Code that criminalises homosexuality.

A coalition of 27 global companies has asked Kenya to fully recognise gays, lesbians, bisexuals and the transgender to unlock more billions into the economy.

The coalition Open for Business, comprises Microsoft, Google, Barclays, Standard Chartered, Diageo, IBM, PwC, American Express, Burberry, among others.
In a report titled The Economic Case for LGBT+ Inclusion in Kenya, they say Kenya loses between Sh18.5 billion and Sh130 billion every year because of policies that assign criminality and discriminate against members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community.
The report says the discriminatory environment sees Kenya lose between Sh6.5 billion and Sh14.3 billion per year because it is unattractive to some tourists.

The report rates several cities across the world in terms of LGBT inclusion. Cities are placed in 13 categories and Nairobi is in the 12th alongside Dakar, Casablanca, Rabat, Dhaka and Almaty.

For some reason, I don't detest lesbians as much as I hate gays.

 

[Mwalimu-G]

Jeez! You had me laughing like a mad man there.

 

[Mwalimu-G]

You mean sewer stirers/probers.

You mean sewer stirers/probers.

homosexuality has always existed.... why are they now behaving like they have discovered something new

On this we will push back like we did with the ICC. If the mzungu really is as democratic as they purport to be why can't they understand that 99% of us abhor homosexuality?

 

[emali]

democratic

only when you agree with what they say.. otherwise.. chaiinaaa is to blame

 

[Clemens]

If only we had a pressure group for them to accept polygamy as they try to feed their faggot leanings.

Hizi weirdos, what's with them? Homosexuals anajifanya mwanamke na mannerisms za kike, nao lesbians wanataka wawe kama wanaume with all that pertains to masculinity. Sasa wakati mende inatembea na mwanaume anayejifanya kama mwanamke....? Why not go for a woman who naturally looks like a man? And it is such a huge advantage kwa kuwa she will be a dual use commodity!

Even if it were to be legalized it wouldn't help that much because if someone doesn't necessarily like them it's really going to be hard to change their mind.
