Is homosexualisty considered a crime here?

Question

What about all the other islands?? How come u all don't like us?

Answer 1

Don't know if it is a crime, there are homosexuals here. but mostly in the closets.

It isn't as open as in USA.  Most ppl (like myself ) is against it, but everyone has to answer for themselves.

Why I don't like homo? I think it is wrong, but as I said before, that's just my opinion.

Answer 2

It's one of those archaic, rarely (almost never) enforced laws that never got updated since the British ruled us.  The funny thing is that our former law givers have moved on and become more tolerant while we have not.

Answer 3

you're welcome to join my bisexual island. ;) where homosexuals are also accepted. lol

Answer 4

Answer 6

Hye, thanks TS jr, i didnt even know that.

So, yes homosexuality is a crime here.

Funny thing is that i have at least two homosexual friends lol.  But as i always tell them, as long as they not swinging both ways im great with that.  dont try to be bisexual.  If that is your preference, come out the closet and face it like a man.  dont be getting married, and having kids and then having a next man on the outside! acknowledge it, face it. and we can work from there.

Answer 7

I didn't know it was a crime either. Besides God made Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve.

Answer 8

YES IS AH CRIME. IS AGAINST THE LAW. Trinidad and Tobago was founded upon principals that acknowledge the supremacy of God. Our constitution states that homosexuality is against the law. It is also against our law for homosexuals to enter the country.

*The beginning of our constitution:

"Whereas the People of Trinidad and Tobago-

a. have affirmed that the Nation of Trinidad and Tobago is founded upon principles that acknowledge the supremacy of God, faith in fundamental human rights and freedoms, the position of the family in a society of free men and free institutions, the dignity of the human person and the equal and inalienable rights with which all members of the human family are endowed by their Creator; ..."

* Homosexual acts are illegal in Trinidad and Tobago (see g*y rights in Trinidad and Tobago) and under Article 8 (18/1) of the Immigration Act, homosexuals are not allowed to enter the country. However, homosexuals have not been actively targeted under current law.

g*y Rights in Trinidad and Tobago:

Trinidadian criminal code prohibits @n@! s*x between men, and also between women as is the case in much of the English-speaking Caribbean. Section 13 of the Sexual Offences Act 1986[1] criminalises "buggery". This section, strengthened in 2000,[2] states:

A person who commits buggery is guilty of an offence and is liable on conviction to imprisonment—

    (a)  if committed by an adult on a minor, for life;

    (b)  if committed by an adult on another adult, for twenty-five years;

    (c)  if committed by a minor on another minor, for five years.

(2)  In this section “buggery” means sexual inter­course per anum by a male person with a male person

       or by a male person with a female person.
