Friendship

It is nice and joyful to found you on the Internet search. I thought is beautiful to make you a friend in this regard.

My name is Mugumya jude Well I am a ugandan male My friends tell me that I am a quiet person with a good sense of humor.

I am always fair, straightforward, honest and easy going and I seek trust worthy friendship. I believe in giving and taking on both sides and I value faithfulness.

I like people for what they are and not for what they are not.

Find my profile; I will be detailed in my consequential mails and expecting same from you

Fight to the end!

Being gay isn't always easy! Even in the U.S. we still have difficult times. Getting people to accept who you are, isn't easy. Being different in a society that is afraid of "difference" isn't cool. My point is, gay people in Russia will have to fight to be recognized and accepted. If it has taken America this long to start allowing same-sex marriages and giving us the same rights and benefits as everyone else, then imagine how long it will take Russia and Europe to do the same!

russia

Russian men show they are tough by smashing homosexuals--usa is now a weak sissy nation where men "marry" men--such nations don't win wars---the usa promotes decadence & anti-christian propaganda when it allows men to "marry" men--thank God the usa does not rule & control the world

Eurovision 2009

How will they handle all the gay fans of Eurovision next year ?

wouldn't it be great if the United States took a leading role in advocating for the human rights of LGBT people throughout the world? that is becoming the trend in Western Europe. can we take candidates McCain and Obama to task about this? what about our Democratic Congress?

Gays in Moscow

Gays in other countryies should support gays in Russia with E-mail and letters to the Russian government. If they wont freedom they have to Fight for it. Freedom is not free.
