    Very few people imagined that Hitler would attempt to exterminate Jews until he actually started doing it (he also killed gays BTW). Also, Russia has a population of almost 145 million, and since gays will usually make up about 5-10% of a country's population, it's quite easy to deduce that there are probably way more gays in Russia than there were Jews in Nazi Germany.

    My god this is disgusting! I can't believe that this is actually happening in what purports to be a First World country in the year 2013! Like, are you kidding me?

    I know this may come across as inappropriate but it seems kinda like some fetish he has to be honest.

    I was thinking of moving to Russia when I was older to work at the Kirov ballet company. Now I'm not so sure unless somehow this stops. :frowning2:

    Its not just their LGBT problems they still have a cold war mentality. When I went to Moscow a few years ago just as a tourist this one guy said "If I had my way we would have nuked the lot of you westerners" , Russia has a crime problem, huge governmental corruption, a despot leader, poor health care, one of the most draconian penal systems on the planet and so much more.

    As a Brit I would never feel same in Russia, let alone a homosexual.

    Alexander Mikhailov has some seriously disturbing festishes. watch it, the moment the whippings start, he will have his hands in his pants, attempting to find his stunted dink so he can whip it.

    The sad thing is, this almost makes more sense than the actual argument that they are presenting. *Facedesk*

    Christians of the Right are full of love.
     
  13. I'm wondering how many Russians actually hate gays, and how many are just trying to build up an impression. I met a Russian once who made a homophobic comment to me, but then he was suddenly "fine with gay people" when I responded by telling him that he should be careful who he runs his mouth to, as we were in a country where discrimination against gays and lesbians is widely frowned upon.
