[@JoeyNewman-i6z]

As a Ghanaian I can say for a fact that Ghanaians are not homophobic. What we are is a very conservative and traditional society. This means, we are very anti-public displays of affection on either side of the spectrum. As such being gay in Ghana is not dangerous in any way shape or form what we are big on as a society is that you limit these activities to your bedrooms. In Ghana you will not find heterosexual couples kissing in public or gay couples doing same. So I would like to disabuse this western notion that the bill or the law been passed serves as a means of criminalizing or making the lives of gay people dangerous in our shared communities The impact of this bill as we envision for ourselves as Ghanaians is that we would like to uphold the standards of our communities in ways that is consistent with our traditional values, systems and beliefs.

People of Ghana, stop complaining about other countries criticising Ghana. Ghana, Uganda, Russia and probably other countries have passed laws making it almost impossible to argue for a change in anti-gay law so it is no wonder that the main resistance to silly, cruel, oppressive law comes from abroad.

[@jegamespeed5399]

​@@tayler2396"Aid" is a free interest loan not free money. These "aids" are the reason why African countries are in debt. Debts that give western countries more control over Africa and it's resources. You don't have to trade, invest or loan money to ghana. Or anycountry in africa, the Middle East or Asia.

Ghana is a country with decent cultural values, even male dogs go for female dogs how much more human beings who where created in the image of God

[@zazabrown732]

Decent cultural values? Then why is there so much corruption? Is paying bribes a part of your cultural values?

[@blaynoku617]

The girl is damaging the name of Ghana. Who and who are fighting and who is beating who in Ghana? The only problem in the country is economic heat and environmental heat. Already people in the West see us as aggressive people who are always fighting and you as a Ghana come and add salt to the wound because we want to uphold our cultural values. Simply because you and some people think it is right doesn’t make it right. If we are to allow everyone to do what he or she wants do you think we would have a functioning society?!!

In Ghana people do not get involved with sexual activities in public. The only place you will find people kissing in public are at weddings, and those kissing would not be just anybody but the married couple kissing by the instruction of the priest or pastor. Even at some marriages, the priest say you may kiss your bride and the couple would rather hug in public than to kiss in front of everyone present. Ghanaians care about the younger generation picking up certain habits, therefore they prefer to hide these acts. Ghanaians are getting to know about the LGBTQ from the foreign media. They get to know these things because its being introduced to them through the numerous foreign movies they consume, yet it is not popular in Ghana. It is not natural to them but the few minority learn from these movies and tv shows. They however, frown against it because it has never been part of them and they do not want a society that is different from what they are. 99.999% of Ghanaians are against LGBTQ and they always make fun of it. That is why you see massive support for this bill even from the Ghanaian community. My advice is that the West gives access to those minority Visas to leave the country to better communities where they are accepted and free to live their lives. In this world, you can't go and play soccer in a hospital's emergency room, neither can you use a court room as a toilet 🚽. Every place and the rules that governs it. It can't all be the same everywhere therefore i plead with the west to help these minorities as they say to move from where they cannot be accepted. You can't force a goat to start eating meat, neither can you force a lion to eat grass. Tolerance must have a limit, else we might start tolerating even armed robbers and the likes because they also believe their work is important
