Nam Myo Ho Gay No Mo'

The leading television yoga expert in India filed a petition challenging last week?s ruling by the Delhi high court that decriminalized gay sex, saying that homosexuality is a "disease" that can be cured by yoga, reports Agence France-Presse.

Swami Baba Ramdev (pictured) filed the petition in India's supreme court, charging that the lower court erred in legalizing "unnatural sex acts." He said that the "congenital defect" of homosexuality could be treated through yoga, breathing exercises, and meditation techniques.

Last week, the Delhi high court overturned the British colonial-era ban on gay sex, but under the Indian legal system, anyone can challenge a court decision in a higher court.

Earlier this week, Suresh Kaushal, an astrologer, filed a petition to challenge the overturning of the 148-year-old ban. He claimed that the traditions of India do not permit homosexuality, and said the court decision would contribute to the spread of HIV/AIDS.

The Indian government and pro-gay groups will have an opportunity to respond to the petitions.

Well, in the swami's defense, becoming flexible enough to...fulfill certain needs, let's say...is about the most plausible gay "cure" I've heard yet. Certainly a step above beating up couch pillows.

I wonder if this includes hot nude yoga.

Swami so silly.

"homosexuality could be treated through yoga, breathing exercises"

I always tell my partners to breathe and relax. After that they're even more gay.

My college professor's "Better Sex Through Yoga for Gay Men" DVD begs to differ.

(ps. I only know this because I used to house sit for him all the time)

Or, at least, produced/directed it

"Or, at least, produced/directed it"

Would that explain singtopher's 'A' in that professor's class?

OK, I thought the title was some spastic way of typing "Namo's Ho Gay No Mo'" and I was going to send him my condolences.

Nope,

Is that his ribcage or does he have REALLY saggy tits?

[madbrian]

Posted: 7/14/09 at 2:53pm

I'd have to go with the former. I mean, MINE aren't even that saggy.

[danmag]

Posted: 7/14/09 at 2:54pm

Unfortunately mine are.


Kidding, of course. But just barely.

[tazber]
