The Real India Part 4 - Public Gayness

Given the strict religious practices that the average Indian person will obide by it was a bit of a shock to see men walking around large cities hand in hand, and often with arms fully around each other in a similar way couples do back home. After reading that it is in fact illegal to be openly gay in Inida we have come to the conclusion that general hand holding amongst men is typical all over Inida and has no homosexual overtones whatsoever.

Unfortunatley (and totally bizarrely) it's frowned upon for a man and woman to show any affection in public.... including general hand holding, India is definitely a mans world!
