Many homosexuals hope to leave Russia
Deutsche Welle ^ | 08.11.2013 | Anna Peters

Germany has granted a young doctor asylum due to his sexual orientation, after he faced persecution and social exclusion in Russia. Thanks to a recent EU ruling, other gays and lesbians will likely to follow. Pavel is gay. He is open about his sexuality, a fact which used to continuously cause outrage in Russia. "It is very unpleasant to be living in a society that thinks you are sick and backward, and where you can be fired from work just for being gay," he said.

"At any moment, someone can chop your head off," that's how he described the fear many homosexuals in Russia have to cope with on a daily basis.

The 26-year-old trained doctor came to Germany as an as asylum seeker in April 2013. He turned to Quarteera when he arrived. Quarteera, an organization for Russian-speaking homosexuals, bisexuals and transsexuals in Germany, didn't give him much hope of staying. They told him that Germany had yet to grant asylum status to a Russian attempting to escape the homophobic atmosphere in Russia. But Pavel decided to try and has been allowed to stay in Germany.

"Homosexuals in Russia have never had it easy"

Discrimination against homosexuals is openly accepted in Russia. In June 2013, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a nationallaw against "homosexual propaganda," which caused outrage in Germany and in other EU states. The law has made it illegal to portray homosexuality in a positive light in the presence of minors or in the media. The crime is punishable by imprisonment or monetary fines.

"How does anyone know you are homosexual?"

The lisp, the swish, the color-coordinated style and the rectal prolapse.

I’m beginning to wonder if Pooty Poot would give me a refugee visa.

Sure, just gather at least 10 passwords from people working at the NSA...

“At any moment, someone can chop your head off,”

Oh, is he talking about a Muslim country or Russia? How many gays have been decapitated in Russia lately?

I’m not sure what that photo has to do with the article...

That it's very hard to understand why ANY male would be gay in Russia?

I’m sure some Russian auto body repair shop owner pays those young ladies to walk around like that in rush hour.

Adam’s apples, good thing to check.

Also look for peach-fuzz on their cheeks. No peach-fuzz equals shaving.

Yup... that’s a good sign, never thought about that. Also: big hands. Large calf muscles. Excessive or crudely applied makeup (real women are more subtle and have a lot more practice). Also, most trannies can’t resist wearing heels, but can’t walk in them very well, so they are wobbly.

Iran would be a good place.
Suadi Arabia another.
Somalia is one more.
Throw Syria and Jordan in there too.
Plenty of options for them.
