“ITS NOT ‘AFRICA’S ANTI-GAY BELIEFS’, ITS THE CHRISTIAN LEGACY OF EUROPE IMPOSED ON COUNTRIES THAT CLINGED EVEN HARDER TO RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM IN THE ECONOMIC VACUUM LEFT AFTER THE FAILED TRANSITION FROM COLONIAL TO POST-COLONIAL POLITICAL REGIMES. I HATE WHEN ARTICLES TRY AND PORTRAY HOMOPHOBIA AS INHERENTLY LINKED TO ‘AFRICA’, WHICH AS A FUCKING CONTINENT HAS A SPECTRUM OF RESPONSES TO THE QUEERER PARTS OF THE GENDER SPECTRUM. WHEN WILL WHITE PEOPLE LEARN TO READ THEY DAMN HISTORY! BOOP TO THIS ARTICLE

Tiwonge Chimbalanga & Steven Monjeza are the first openly gay couple of Malawi. Both of them spit in the face of the intolerance of Africa’s anti-gay beliefs. Tiwonge said: “I love Steven so much. If people or the world cannot give me the chance and freedom to continue living with him as my lover, then I am better off to die here in prison. Freedom without him is useless and meaningless.”
