Siyafuna (We want!) - Gay Rights in South Africa

There are some laws which are not enforceable. This is the unfortunate case for LGBT individuals who live in a communty that still believe in rumours and fiction. Siya is a lesbian, who has found happiness in coming out of the closet in Khayelitsha. However, she is feeling unwelcomed from members of the community as well as members from her own family.

According to the south african Constitution all the citizens have the right to be treated with dignity and respect.but that does not seem to be happening in regards to issues such as this our mind set need to change especially the african way of thinking.

Absolutely true. I have been trying to get married for a very long time. I am a South African living abroad, and our ministers don't seem to realise that gay marriage is legal in South Africa. We destroyed Apartheid, and now the liberators have become the new Apartheid regime. We should have completed the revolution when we had the chance. Now, I fear, we are headed for conservative, traditionalist tyranny.
