    My best friend, who is Jamaican told me the same thing. She said, in jamaica if you are gay, they will kill you. Whether you are male or female.

    This has nothing to do with gay people, they only want to play conga music all night.

    So they do not like gay people, that is their choice. Don't move there.

    Well my mom is still going to Jamaica. There is nothing wrong with Jamaicans not choosing to embrace gays. That's just the way that they are. But also, remember that Jamaica is pretty much a 3rd world country and they are behind in the times, so if they do eventually come around, it could be awhile.

    you do know that people come here for celebrity gossip, don't you? if you insist on reporting on this stuff what about other forms of discrimination? oh god forbid anyone discriminate against the gays but let's pretend they're the only people in this world who don't get equal rights. and start fucking spell checking you moron.

    I am surprised considering they've got two Hedonism resorts on the island which promotes (I am assuming hetrosexual) promiscuity. www.superclubs.com/hedonism

    Just because someone doesn't believe in your way of life doesn't mean they deserve to be boycotted. You need to learn to be tolerant of other points of view if you wish to be tolerated for your point of view. It's only fair. Why is it that you feel that you are absolutely right and everyone who doesn't see things the same way as you do are absolutely wrong? I guess it boils down to this… "get over yourself"

  20. hahah says – reply to this

    Ive been there and its beautiful. Besides, if someone, especially if their not gay, doesnt go somewhere because of that reason then you are so dumb. Really really dumb

    Perez I love you I do…but I swear if I hear one more person telling people to stop visiting my country I will SCREAM!!!!! Yes I will agree that the majority of persons in my country oppose the LGBT community but no you will not be killed on site, nobody cares whether you are gay or straight. I understand that persons want their rights in fact i would be the first to try to educate as i believe in equality for all and nothing pleased me more than hearing about the pull on the ban for gay marriage in California. What I do not apprciate about such braod genralizations is that the gay community refuses to even acknowledge the beleifs of Jamaicans. It may differ from yours but it is still that, their opinion. We want acceptance but when you are as rigid as those who oppose you nothing happens. Change is compromise. I admit i'm not proud when I hear persons degrade and humiliate gay persons, it sickens and saddens me but I refuse to let one set of persons rigidly oppose another set of person due to beliefs we aren't 5 years old, we cannot continue this tit for tat foolishness. Its time we all grow up. There is a thriving gay community in Jamaica, try focusing on educating and acceptance rather than revenge and ridicule.

    that is NOT NEWS, it is against the law to have homosexual acts in Jamaica. Get over it, not every country needs to be pro gay. That's just the way it is in Jamaica… that's not a reason for someone not to go, many gays go, they just don't show they are gay in public… duh! this blog is LAME

    Not liking gays and not wanting to give them any rights is one thing but for the police and justice to not do anything when someone is threatened or killed is seriously fucked up…

    Yes, it has aways been like that. It's like the dark ages. Women's rights are also poor there. I worked there after college briefly. I had to return because women get no where in business there unless they jump on their backs. The USA is not perfect, but it's realy the best! God bless the USA!!!!!

    Thank you for sharing this. I have many, many gay friends and I am passing this on to them so they do not travel there and endanger themselves. And I'm passing this on to my straight friends so they don't go there and financially support a bunch of hatemongers. f

    I don't know, last time I checked, this site was supposed to be about gossip.

    Since when did it turn into your personal hugbox?

    If you want a hugbox, get a LiveJournal. Please get back to the gossip now, thanks.

    There are a lot of people who have problems with the gay thing. Many split down the middle. Young hot battyman girls are hot, men-not and a threat. Many still hold gay men responsible for the creation and spread of AIDS and other diseases even when it's not true. Many people are as smart of sub primes who purchased homes. They never listen too nor read the fine print. They don't listen to health officials and others about being gay and the problems with diseases but will listen to dancehall, rap and other music with lyrics about murking battymans. The forefathers should have thought about putting a gay clause in the Constitution. Maybe that would lead to better understanding and acceptance. But because in the 21st century, people's brains are smaller and clouded, probably not!

    Talk about the power of suggestion, tee hee. Anyhoo, this is why I stick with the Hotel Guanahani in St. Barts. It's a French island and the natives there know their place. "Another iced towel, sir?" It's so divine. Plus it's way too exclusive for most breeders.

    Some parts of Jamaica may be beautifu, but certainly NOT Kingston. I lived and worked there for a period of time and couldn't wait to get out. It's such a backwards country in all aspects…slow, slow, slow. I've lived in two other third world countries, including Tanzania…and Jamaica is the WORST.

    IM JAMAICAN and it is true the country is homophobic, but it does not continue to the tourists. we are a very poor nation and if you are visiting the island and are stayin at a resort you will be protected and taken cARE of. please do not let the ignorance of the people in the country let u not want to vacation there. im mean there are places in america where people are racist but people still come here.

    hey perez im Jamaican and I must say just because Jamaica has their views on gays and whether its wrong or not it doesn't mean that people shouldn't visit there. But for the record I would like to say that Jamaica is not the only island that feels this way its just the only island that gets the most criticism for its views and actions all this stuff happens in st.kitts and nevis, trinidad and tobago, st.thomas etc.. a lot of islands havent accepted gays and lesbians because of their religious views and various other reasons…as and a gay man you shouldn't care who accepts you or not live your life for you and not other people and their opinions just be happy you cant change the world in a day change takes time

    You have no right to impose your beliefs on Jamaicans. We do not believe in sodomy! Full stop. America is always trying to impose their views, lifestyles and politics on people. Thats why Americans can invade other countries- Cuba, Iraq etc. You cannnot rule Jamaica, that is law and you have no authority in our country. As third world and "backwards" or "behind in the times" we are, we still have our strong views and beliefs. Who are you to call people backwards anyways, at least we are not a war mongering, morally vapid, high polluting first world country (that is now in a midst of stunning recession). And we have a sense of equality- out of many we are one unlike America with its inherent racism pouring through the media. I do not believe in violence against the sexually confused but I do not believe in permissiveness. America is imbued with permissiveness and that is partially destroying the country.

    Well, if you go there for vacation, you DON'T go to Kingston anyway…Too dangerous. We have been many times and always told to stay away from there. Anyway, who cares if they hate the gays.

    Re: Celti
    You probably worked in a rough area. Does not mean the entire city is slow and backwards. You are generalising. It is like damning the whole of Los Angeles because of South Central. Your ignorance is astounding.

  61. 61

    I WILL NEVER VISIT JAMAICA OR GIVE MY MONEY AND TIME TO ANY COUNTRY THAT IS FULL OF SUCH IGNORANT AND CHILDISH PEOPLE.

    Let's throw Perez into Jamaica then maybe he would be less up-tight (get ire, smoka da ganja) and would learn to stop talking about his sexuality in fear of reprisal! It would be a long over-due spanking for this whiny bitch who would rather talk about how 30 people of one group died over 10+ years when it's not even news rather than talk about, I don't know, how white people from ancient Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) are getting their farms taken away in Zimbabwe? If Perez wants to talk about news, there are a million things to talk about. The fact that such a small amount of people have died in Jamaica (30 it says) for being gay makes this waste of space on this website even more nerve-racking for all us straight readers and gay readers who arent flaming like perez.

    Perhaps y'all are missing the a big part of Perez's point; it seems way more than being generally intolerant… if you read through the entire article, anyone with a heart would be pretty disturbed by the brutality that went down.

    GOOD JOB JAMAICANS!
    KEEP UP THE GOOD JOB!
    HOMOS SPREAD DEADLY DISEASE,AND WHEN AIDS FIRST WAS RECOGNISED AS A GAY MANS DISEASE WAY BACK IN THE EARLY 80S',
    THE GAYS COULD HAVE STOPPED AIDS FROM THE EXPLOSION IT HAS CREATED,BUT NOOOOOOO,,,THE BUTT PLUNGERS COULDNT CONTROL THEIR DEVIOUS BEHAVIOR AND SINCE THEN AIDS HAS INVADED STRAIGHT POPULATION,CHILDREN,WOMEN.THAY SHOULD ALL BE HUNG WHEN TESTING POSITIVE FOR AIDS.

    Though I am down with people having their own POV's, the crazy violence that went down is more the point, yeah? I can respect anyone's opinion that is well thought out, but when it comes to what went down in that article? That's scary.

    WELL, BEANIE MAN (THAT JAMAICAN RAPPER WHO SANG "FEEL IT BOY")SAID SO HIMSELF THAT HE WANTS TO KILL ALL THE GAYS !!!…LOOKS LIKE THE DARK PEOPLE OF JAMAICA ARE STILL LIVING IN THE DARK AGES !! THERE ARE PLENTY OF NICE ISLANDS IN THE CARRIBEAN OTHER THAN JAMAICA..I SAY DITCH THE BITCHES !!
