when we hear of such problem it is more diheartening for the bhutanese citizens but still if it goes on then we must say that it is their pleasure for it. this 21 century has cameup with lots of cahsnges right from the dressing of youth. we have heard of homosexulity and seen those who are involved in the activities. these days our youth tries to act like the western youths. but it is all bullshit and disgusting….
lets get rid of it!!!!!

there seems to be more ‘no’ than ‘yes’. this is disheartening, especially when knowing that educated people took part in this poll.
people in the villages would be more accepting of this than you all. all the while we were expecting education to broaden our minds,, it has done just the opposite.
disheartening and disgusting

Whenever a topic like sex comes out for discussion there are so many people who tend to send their comments.
Remember Dear Friends this is in the context of Bhutan. There may be homos and lesbians and if they ca be given the right to marry in the aters of our chortens it will be a great boon to Bhutan as we have a hard time controlling the population. We don’t have to keep people telling of the population explosion and unemployment. BHutan needs to cut down population growth like in the early 1990s there had been a woderful drop in population thereby increasing our GNH. We need small families. Those who are gays and lesbians should organize themselves and have mass marriage programs and support them. Homos will be a strong force in terms of nation building as we need many hardy workers for the current infrastructural development. As they will not have family life (children) they can be available for works at odd hours too and contribute to nation building.

Therefore like in other countries we must account the actual number of lesbians and gays and get the best out of them. When they have worked and contributed a lot we could start homes for the aged and that will create employment oppertunities. We must create societies of the lesbians and homos in East, west, north and southern Bhutan. Sherubtse College and all the monasti schools muct educate that all human beings are equal and marriage is not god made but man made. In pursuit of happiness Bhutan should allow its citizens the proper use of their body. As it is well said in Drukpa Kague that we should fo all the good that we can and never think of anything bad.

I look forward to the setting up PINK BHUTAN and host a large number of programs in support of population control.

Allowing lesbians and homosexuals to pick up the partners of their choice also cuts the cases of domestic violence.

Bhutan has from its ancient times practiced polyandry. This is having multiple husbands by women. This places women in a higher platform than in other countries.

Now we must recognize homosexuals and make it a law that there can be no discrimination between heterosexuals and homosexuals. It has been the age old tradition of Bhutan to allow every group to practice their culture and tradition and thus Brokpas and Lgaps have been taken good care and thus it is time to take care of the Homos and Lesbians. It would be best to set up an appropriate place for the cultural development of the Homos or it may be called the museum of homosexuals or the center for homosexual studies.

I vote for the Homos and if the government shows any discrimination the government will fail.

So cheer up homos because you are the ones who will help exemplify Bhutan’s tolerance and protection of minorities and a strong step for population control.

I VOTE YES AND HOPE TO SEE DRUK PINK SOCIETY.

By going through your lines, it tells me: Life itself is impermanent and so all the habibits including sex. Let individuals decide. We need not suggest or dictate. Interested people will choose what they like. May be better if we take care and watch our own interests and habbits

Homosexuality..muh..,I should say yes. coz the future of individual lies in the hand of individual decision.It is very simple to understand the concept. Example, everyone of us is alike to one another isn’t it.? Likewise,every individual has the right to live and no matter what is the circumstances behind.I personally think accepting homosexualism would be wise to know someone correctly.

Buddhism is the love of wisdom ,one of the Supreme philosophies of awakening . A set of teachings propagated by the Buddha and enlightened beings so we may use it as a means of guiding principles in order to come the realization of the true nature of all things in order for us to live a happy and noble life. But with the profound understanding that our internal motivation to practice Buddhism should be to benefit all sentient beings … Do not use Buddhism or any other religion to judge some one else’s sexuality ,, instead dear friends , practice , in order to transform your Hate, Greed and Delusion in to Love, Generosity and Truth .. In other words , be mindful of your own mind …

Going by some comments, it looks like homos and lesbians are a part of evolutionary process. This is misleading. Remember sex has got something more than clashes of bodies to produce orgasms. Sex is primarily for procreation. All living being indulge in opposite sex to procreate. It is only we humans, the fools who, who derive pleasure or try to procreate by indulging in the same sex.
Here I don’t question individual’s right. Yes, everyone has a right to ones way of life but indulging in a same sex is unnatural. Remember, eyebrows will be raised if a gay couple or lesbian walk down the street arm in arm.
