Answer:
Homosexuality means attraction between the same sexes. It is perceived to be unnatural as this orientation doesn’t bode well with the majority i.e. ‘heterosexuality’. Since they are a minority, they are continuing to be repressed and oppressed by the majority even in today’s modernized world.
-It violates fundamental rights guaranteed by the Indian constitution viz. Art 14 & 15 (Equality), Art 19 (freedom of expression of sexuality) and Art 21 (dignified life).
-Other progressive nations such as USA and Europe have decriminalized it.
-Minorities – linguistic, regional, religious, etc. have got new voice in the new world order with the help of civil societies.
Way forward:
-Homosexuality should be legalized so that this minority doesn’t face atrocities from the public as well as the police.
-Mass awareness programmes should be conducted to educate people that it is natural, not a disorder but just another expression of sexuality.
-They should be focused upon in the mainstream policy making and social welfare programmes. For ex: Job reservation.
India is a vibrant democracy where everyone has the right to live a dignified life. Majority shouldn’t decide for a minority whether they have the right to live the life of their choice or not. Therefore, the draconian Sec 377 must be struck down.
