1Tajikistan Remains ‘Hell for Gays’“Helo ho an'ny pelaka” i Tajikistan
2Gay issues are a taboo subject in Tajikistan.Lohahevitra fady ny resaka pelaka ao Tajikistan.
3Although the country decriminalized homosexuality fifteen years ago, there is still very little tolerance toward sexual minorities within its conservative society.Na dia efa ho dimy amby folo taona aza izao no tsy mahavoasazy intsony ny fiarahan'ny mitovy fananahana ao amin'ity firenena, dia mbola vitsy ireo mahazaka ny fisian'izy ireo ao amin'ny fiaraha-monina mitandro ny fomban-drazana.
4In addition to homophobic attitudes, those rare individuals who dare to disclose their ‘unconventional' sexual orientation become easy targets of physical and psychological abuse, including from police (pdf).Ankoatra ny fihetsika fankahalana pelaka, lasa lasibatry ny herisetra ara-batana sy ara-tsaina ireo vitsy mahasahy mampiseho izany fironana ara-pananahana ‘tsy nifanarahana' izany (pdf).
5As a result, the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community remains “one of the most closed and secretive parts of Tajik society”.Vokany, mitoetra ho « iray amin'ireo vondrona mikatona sy miafina eo amin'ny fiaraha-monina Tadjika » ireo vavy tia vavy, tia fananahana roa, lahy tia lahy ary ireo niova fananahana (LGBT).
6A recent discussion in the country's blogosphere offers a rare glimpse into what it means to be gay in Tajikistan and how the country's people view members of the LGBT community.Nisy adi-hevitra faramparany teo tao amin'ny tontolon'ny bilaogy ao amin'ny firenena nahitana ambangovangony mikasika ny dikan'izany atao hoe pelaka (gay) ao Tadjikistan sy hoe ahoana no fiheveran'ny olona ao an-toerana ireo LGBT.
7‘It means PAIN…'‘Midika ho FANGIRIFIRIANA…'
8The discussion started after blogger Rishdor wrote [ru] about a violent incident at his university.Nanomboka taorian'ny nanoratan'i [ru] Rishdor mikasika ny voina mahery vaika iray teny amin'ny anjerimanontolo ny adi-hevitra.
9Students there found out that one of their classmates was a gay.Nahafantatra ireto mpianatra fa pelaka ny iray tamin'ireo namany ao an-dakilasy.
10Rishdor writes [ru]:Nanoratra izy hoe:
11For some reason, everyone took it as a personal offence.Noho ny antony maro dia noraisin'ny rehetra ho toy ny fanalam-baraka manokana izany.
12It was decided that the [gay] should be taught a lesson.Tapaka ny hevitra fa tokony homena lesona ity pelaka.
13About eight of our classmates beat him up in the bathroom.Valo tamin'ireo namana ireo no nidaroka azy tao amin'ny trano fandroana.
14They beat him up badly; there was a lot of blood on his face and clothes…Tena novelesin'izy ireo maharary izy, ka nijininika eran'ny tava sy ny akanjo ny rà
15Among many other comments under the blog, one reader suggests [ru] that the incident reflects a widespread popular attitude towards gays in Tajikistan:Tao anatin'ireo adi-hevitra maro hafa tao amin'ny bilaogy, dia nandroso hevitra [ru] ny mpamaky iray fa mampiseho fihetsika fanaon'ny olona amin'ireo pelaka ao Tadjikistan izany trangan-javatra izany
16I think it is not the first time [that the boy was beaten].Mino aho fa tsy vao voalohany no voavono toy izany ilay lehilahy.
17As long as he is in Tajikistan, he will continue facing this attitude.Tsy maintsy miatrika fihetsika toy izany hatrany izy raha mbola eto Tadjikistan.
18Every day.Isan'andro.
19And if he goes to [police] for help, they will kick him away, ridiculing the guy; he will face scornful attitude wherever he goes, and a crowd of young people will always be after him, everywhere.Ary raha handeha hitaraina any amin'ny polisy izy, dia ho roahin'ireto farany, sady handatsa, tsy maintsy miatrika ny fihetsika fampijaliana amin'izay rehetra alehany izy, ary tsy maintsy hisy andian'olona hanenjika azy hatrany, na aiza na aiza.
20I am truly sorry for him.Tena mampalahelo ahy izy.
21Another reader, Shakha, asks [ru]:Nanontany [ru] kosa i Shakha, mpamaky hafa:
22Why does this attitude toward gays persists in our country?Fa nahoana no mitohy eto amin'ny firenentsika izany fihetsika atao amin'ny pelaka izany ?
23Being gay is no longer considered a crime; the state does not officially punish people for this.Tsy voasokajy ho heloka intsony ny pelaka eto amintsika, tsy mbola nanasazy ofisialy ny olona noho izay ny fanjakana.
24And the modern science has proven that homosexuality is not some kind of a psychiatric aberration which can be treated with medicines (or through stoning or lashing)…Ary efa nanaporofo koa ny siansa ankehitriny fa tsy karazana areti-tsaina afaka sitranina amin'ny fanafody (na toraham-bato na karavasiana) ny fifanelahana…
25Responding to Rishdor's post, another blogger, Drugoi (Different) writes [ru]:Namaly [ru] ny lahtsoratr'i Rishdor i Drugoi, bilaogera hafa :
26Do you know what it means to be gay in Tajikistan?Fantatrao ve ny dikan'izany hoe pelaka eto Tadjikistan ?
27Nothing worse that this can be imagined!..Tsy misy ratsy kokoa azo sainina !
28BEING GAY MEANS BEING UNAPPRECIATED!TSY VOASITRAKA NO DIKAN'IZANY HOE PELAKA !
29By everyone.Avy amin'ny olon-drehetra.
30It means being doomed to loneliness and indifference towards you, even from your own family and friends; [it means] their scorn and pity about you being the way you are.Izany hoe efa voaozona hitoka-monina sy tsy raharahian'ny hafa, eny fa na dia fianakavianao sy ny namanao aza ; [midika ho] fanebahana avy amin'izy ireo sy ny fangorahany ny maha-anao anao.
31[It means] their attempts to convince you, or convince themselves, that this is just a disease and that it should be treated as soon as possible.[Midika] fa handresy lahatra anao izy ireo na hifandresy lahatra, fa aretina io ka mila fitsaboana haingana.
32It means PAIN, SUFFERING, INSULTS, LONELINESS, HUMILIATION.FANGIRIFIRIANA, FIJALIANA, LATSA, IRERY , ary FANILIKILIHANA no hevitr'izany.
33In another response post titled “Leave Gays Alone”, blogger Fragaria urges [ru] readers:Mandrisika ny mpamaky kosa ilay lahatsoratr'ity bilaogera Fragaria izay mitondra ny lohateny hoe « Avelao ny pelaka »
34Stop interfering in other people's lives… Learn to treat human beings as human beings, rather than as girls, boys, or gays… Accept people the way they have become.Aoka izay ny fitsabahana ny fiainan'ny hafa… Mianara mandray ny olombelona toy ny olombelona raha ny marina toy ny vehivavy, ny lehilahy, na pelaka… Ekeo amin'ny maha-izy azy ny tsirairay.
35Be tolerant.Mandefera.
36Why does it matter to you whether a person prefers to have sex with men or women?Fa nahoana ianao no lian-kahafantatra mafy amin'ny safidin'ny olona na te hiaraka amin'ny lehilahy hafa izy na vehivavy ?
37‘Hell for gays'‘Afoben'ny pelaka”
38However, reader comments to this latest blog indicate that members of the LGBT community are not anyway near to gaining widespread acceptance in Tajikistan.Na dia izany aza anefa, ny fanehoan-kevitry ny mpamaky ao amin'ity bilaogy farany indrindra ity ho ahafaha-manamarika fa mbola tsy akaiky ny fanekena ny LGBT ao Tadjikistan.
39An anonymous reader comments [ru]:Fanehoan-kevitra iray avy amin'ireo mpamaky tsy fantatra [ru] :
40Whether we live in the Middle Ages or in the present time, what is forbidden is forbidden.Na miaina amin'ny vanim-potoana fahiny na ankehitriny isika, izay voarara dia voarara.
41One should not [abandon] her faith by recognizing these ill people as part of society…Tsy tokony hisy ny hanary finoana amin'ny fiheverana ireny olona marary ireny ho anisan'ny fiaraha-monina…
42Another blogger, Teocrat, argues [ru] that accepting the rights of gays is similar to accepting the rights of zoophiles and pedophiles.Nilaza [ru], ity bilaogera hafa, Teocrat, ity fa mitovy amin'ny fanekena ny zon'ny « zoophiles » (fanaovana firaisana amin'ny biby) sy ny « pedophiles » (fanaovana firaisana amin'ny zaza) ny fanekena ny zo amin'ny fiarahan'ny mitovy fananahana.
43He also suggests that “if gays want to be treated as everyone else, they should behave as everyone else”.Naneho hevitra ihany koa izy fa « raha te ho ekena tahaka ny rehetra ny pelaka, dia tokony hitondra tena tahaka ny rehetra koa izy ».
44Blogger Bachai Sako goes [tj] as far as denying gay men a place in Tajik society:Lasa lavitra amin'ny tsy fankatoavana ny pelaka ao amin'ny fiaraha-monina tadjika kosa ilay bilaogera Bachai Sako [tj]
45Homosexuals are neither Tajiks nor Muslims.Sady tsy Tadjika, no tsy silamo ny mpanelaka.
46They are ill people, or animals.Olona tsy salama izany na biby.
47Under these comments, Mustafo writes [ru]:Ao anatin'ny fanehoa-keviny i Mustafo nanoratra hoe [ru] :
48I have not had a chance to meet homosexuals in our country.Tsy mbola nifankahita tamin'ireny mpanelaka ireny aho teto amin'ny firenentsika.
49But, judging by these comments, Tajikistan is hell for gays.Nefa, raha jerena amin'ireto fanehoan-kevitra ireto, dia helo ho an'ny mpanelaka i Tadjikistan.
