g_b India Enlists Barbers In Fight Against HIV/AIDS
India Enlists Barbers In Fight Against HIV/AIDS by The Associated Press Posted: December 27, 2005 3:00 pm ET (New Delhi) Along with the usual hair lotions and creams, Ganga Ram, a barber who does business in the shade of banyan tree, also has the latest tools of his trade - a small pile of condoms and booklets on AIDS prevention. When men settle into Ram's barber chair in New Delhi's Lajpat Nagar market they become captive to what Ram calls his "real mission" - to help them avoid the deadly virus that has infected 5.13 million people in this country of a billion people. India may be the birthplace of Kama Sutra, the 6th century sex manual, but it is also a deeply conservative society. Gay sex is punishable by prison terms and discussing any sexual matters is usually taboo. That makes India's chatty, itinerant barbers a valuable means of spreading the AIDS message. A unique prevention program has trained Ram and more than 10,000 barbers in sterilizing their razors and scissors, and has also tutored them to promote condom use, recognize the symptoms of AIDS and answer commonly asked questions about the illness. "Sometimes men find it awkward to discuss their sexual habits. Then I wait till their faces are covered with shaving foam, or I've started cutting their hair, before broaching the topic," says Ram with a wry laugh. "They can't run away then." Indian barbers have a history of offering more than just cutting hair. Traditionally they would travel from village to far-flung village, giving haircuts to regular customers. As they became familiar figures, they often would serve as matchmakers for their customers' families, and spread news of births, deaths or gossip. Today, all over India, the barbershop - often little more than a chair, a mirror and a pair of scissors - is where men gather each day, reading the newspaper and chatting as they await their turn. It is where Swiss-based Association Francois-Xavier Bagnoud, a health-centered aid agency, saw an opportunity to get the men's attention. Take the case of Sumeru Mahto. An itinerant construction worker, he moves around New Delhi a lot but always returns to the same barber for his twice-weekly shave, and stays to chat. "This city is crowded with strangers who come in search of work. They have no families, few friends," said Mahto. "You could say the barber is the closest I have to family in this city." The intervention program has put this traditional barber's role to use. "Often it's not easy. Men are still shy about discussing their sexual encounters, but I find they tell me things they wouldn't even tell their wives," said Ram. Experts say education is vital in India, where sexually transmitted diseases are attributed to bad hygiene awareness, widespread migration of labor, low literacy levels and gender disparities. Manisha Pal, a coordinator of the barber program, said another reason for targeting men is that most women in male-dominated India often have no power to make sex-related decisions. If a barber suspects a problem, he refers the customer to an AIDS clinic, she said. The agency works closely with India's state-run National AIDS Control Organization which supplies it with the free condoms and information booklets. Barbers are also able to reach out to the gay community in India even though homosexuality remains a crime under an archaic law that dates to British colonial rule. But Pal notes: "Even homosexual men need haircuts, and have responded well to the program." ©365Gay.com 2005 Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

g_b how clever r u?
how clever r u ?Let's find out just how clever you really are. Ready? GO!!! (scroll down) First Question: You are participating in a race You overtake the second person. What position are you in? scroll down Answer: If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you are second! Try not to screw up in the next question. To answer the second question, don't take as much time as you took for the first question. Second Question: If you overtake the last person, then you are...? scroll down Answer: If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST Person? You're not very good at this! Are you? Third Question: Very tricky math! Note: This must be done in your head only. Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it. Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Now add another 1000 Now add 10. What is the total? Scroll down for answer. Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100. Don't believe it? Check with your calculator! Today is definitely not your day. Maybe you will get the last question right? Fourth Question: Mary's father has five daughters: 1. Nana, 2. Nene, 3. Nini, 4. Nono. What is the name of the fifth daughter? Answer: Nunu? NO! Of course not. Her name is Mary. Read the question again Okay, now the bonus round: There is a mute person who wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing one's teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done. Now if there is a blind man who wishes to buy a pair of sunglasses, how should he express himself? He just has to open his mouth and ask, so simple. KEEP THIS GOING TO FRUSTRATE THE SMART PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE! And people who think they are smart!...lol... willie. Yahoo! Photos Ring in the New Year with Photo Calendars.

g_b (PERSONAL EMAIL) a request from Manan - "Tomorrow Never Comes"
...special request/message at the bottom of this email... Tomorrow Never Comes - By Norma Marek If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly, and pray the Lord your soul to keep. If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss, and call you back for just one more. If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would tape each word and action, and play them back throughout my days If I knew it would be the last time, I would spare an extra minute or two, To stop and say "I love you," instead of assuming you know I do. So, just in case tomorrow never comes, and today is all I get, I'd like to say how much I love you, and I hope we never will forget. Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike, And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight. So, if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss, And you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish. So hold your loved ones close today, and whisper in their ear, That you love them very much, and you'll always hold them dear. Take time to say "I'm sorry," "Please forgive me," "thank you" or "it's okay". And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today. © Norma Cornett Marek 1989 - Dear WHACKY souls... Be sure to tell anyone you consider a friend or a loved one how you feel today. Those you've known for a long time, or maybe haven't talked to in a while, as well as those you may have just met. Let them know how much you care about them. But don't delay. You never know... you may not see them tomorrow. So, let them know how much they mean to you today. In fact, email this message to them now. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.

Re: g_b Annie Proulx Brokeback Mountain - Transgendered Voices - Wyoming
The original story Brokeback mountain does have its own 'original' murder/torture sequence 'married sex addicts' huh??? h'm my dear liz, ya couldna' ha' put it better!!! fk - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: gay_bombay@yahoogroups.com ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 26, 2005 9:13 PM Subject: g_b Annie Proulx Brokeback Mountain - Transgendered Voices - Wyoming Annie Proulx - I had the great pleasure of seeing Brokeback Mountain at the 10 AM showing at the Mayan in Denver on Christmas.. I feel that your story has been very respectfully filmed in light of the current needs to produce a box office worthy movie.. It is with the possible exception of Philadelphia Story the most accessible serious film with gay characters for the day-to-day non-gay public that I have seen...here or in India.. As you can imagine of great importance to me are the story's setting in Wyoming...which has been unfairly bashed in the world media...since the senseless killing of Matthew Shepard by simple thieving criminals from families as familiar to you on your side of Laramie as they were on mine...in Iron Mountain... The culture and people of Wyoming are interpreted by the actors in an honest manner from the two cowboys to Ennis's daughter and to Jack's parents.. I felt a little embarrassed by the awkward representations of murder of gay men in Wyoming in Texas and sadly felt that they had been undeftly edited and placed in the movie to get the greatest buzz from certain members of the public who require gore to validate their own personal preconceptions...but these two murders were not major in the time elapsed and were good foils to help focus attention on the brutal response that can erupt from people unable to understand the objects of their own personal fears... i.e. the rural cowboy population of Jack Twists youth...in whichboth you and I know from our friends and acquaintances in Wyoming... homosexual behaviour has always been a private, but common entity that was generally not flashed around as a public ideal in the conservative and family oriented society...just as extramarital sex and prostitution though very common are not given any kudos either.. and the frustration of Jack's wife at being excluded from an unknown endeavor that obviously gave her husband Jack a great deal of pleasure.. almost certainly she found out about the details of Jacks extracurriclar activities the same accidental way that Ennis's wife and the line boss of the sheep ranch did before her...and had Jack killed and then moved on with her new life with a ranch manager who treated her better.. Jack and Ennis are very much like many of the gay working cowboys that I know today...both in their incredible strengths and fatal flaws...I am happy that the story was told in pre-HIV. 1960s Wyoming...so that the veiwers could focus on the incredible web of interpersonal relationships that even simple people weave around themselves...and to then allow us to objectively analyze both the good and poor choices anyone can make in life...and the frequently disastrous outcomes that can come from a self-centered individual's frequently confused thought process... instead of being diverted by the present war on AIDS that has engulfed much of the gay media and thought.. I currently have an order into Amazon.com for three copies of Brokeback Mountain to use in our Bangalore and Calcutta, India programs to show married sex addicts who feel that their compulsive daliences with female prostitutes, gay men and hijara/eunuchs can do to destroy not just the lives of their innocent wives and children...but ultimately themselves as well.. India is a patriarchal culture where the women rarely dare to act as Jack's wife did and generally are not given the outlet of honourable and equitable divorce that Ennis' wife chose...the movie thus could be used in assisting the disenfranchised married women of India too.. Have a great Winter...I feel much like Tom Horn exiled to burial in the cemetery in Boulder, Colorado these days...as I am sure you might have heard that I have sold my beloved Iron Mountain Ranch to facilitate my work assisting the hijara/eunuch population in India...at least unlike Tom I can walk away into a new and intriguing life instead of being dropped into the black hole of eternity at the end of a rope.. I will forward copies of this email to Sampoorna an Indian TG group, Sappho a Calcutta lesbian group, Gaybombay a Mumbai gay group and Ashok Row Kavi my icon of Indian social work through his Humsafar Trust..

g_b Joke~
It was a warm, sunny Sunday, so a man and his wife decided to take in the zoo. They spent the day and at closing time they walked past the gorilla cage and the man noticed the gorilla looking at his wife."That gorilla is getting excited just looking at your boobs," he said. "Why don't you take your blouse off and we'll see what he does?"At first she declined but finally persuaded by her husband, she took off her blouse and bra. The gorilla went nuts. He started grunting and jumping up and down."Hey," the husband said, "let's really blow his mind. Take off all your clothes and we'll see what he does." Again she said no and again he persuaded her.This time the ape really went bananas! He climbed up and down the bars,did flips, ran around in circles and tossed his food all over the cage.The husband went over to the cage, opened the door and pushed his wife in."Now," said the husband with an evil smile, "tell *HIM*, you have a headache!"

g_b Mathematics in Heaven
Once all the scientists die and go to heaven They decide to play hide-n-seek.Unfortunately Einstein is the one who has the den...He is supposed to count up to 100...and then start searching. Everyone starts hiding except Newton. Newton just draws a square of 1 meter and stands in it right in front of Einstein... Einstein's counting 1,2,3..97,98,99.100 He opens his eyes and finds Newton standing in front Einstein says "newton's out..newton'sout." Newton denies and says i am not out He claims that he is not Newton.. All the scientists come out to see how he proves that he is not Newton.. Newton says "I am standing in a square of area 1m squared. That makes me Newton per meter squared.. since one Newton per meter squared is one Pascal, I'm Pascal, Therefore Pascal is OUT...! Yahoo!

Re: g_b tops n bots
Hi Deepak. This is so very true, and in return they like to do nothing.

'Cause the world is full of people who dont fit in simple categories. i like to fool around a lot so i end up frequenting chatrooms and have met some really interesting blokes and a lot of duds as well. Duds who claim to be "total tops" They tell me not to expect a blowjob (i guess its not a very masucline thing to perform fellatio) but to give them one after which they would like to take me from behind. unhh...Boring. Ofcourse a lotta people would like that but somehow i think its more about power relations. in case of heterosexuals the man is always the fucker and the woman is always fucked (even in the cowgirl position) 'Cause she is the one who is being penetrated man:woman active:passive powerful:powerless Its really sad when these power dynamics are translated into gay relations. Ofcourse its none of my business to comment on people's tastes in bed but what I cant tolerate is the attitude that the 'tops' wear. are you guys really insecure about your masculinity that you have to assert it by being so cocky about it? you may refuse to suck dick but its most sickening when somebody insists on being 'serviced' worse goes around bragging about his manliness derived out of his sexual habits.

Re: g_b Annie Proulx Brokeback Mountain - Transgendered Voices - Wyoming
HI EJ, how can you be so sure that JAcks wife got hime killed. its just your interepretation right (?).. I saw the film a few days ago and thoroghly enjoyed it...But i wondered if i would enjoy the film as much if the two leads were not as good looking.. On the whole i guess the film is pretty good and i was rather surprised that 90% of the viewers in my show were straight couples... cheers aj[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Annie Proulx - I had the great pleasure of seeing Brokeback Mountain at the 10 AM showing at the Mayan in Denver on Christmas.. I feel that your story has been very respectfully filmed in light of the current needs to produce a box office worthy movie.. It is with the possible exception of Philadelphia Story the most accessible serious film with gay characters for the day-to-day non-gay public that I have seen...here or in India.. As you can imagine of great importance to me are the story's setting in Wyoming...which has been unfairly bashed in the world media...since the senseless killing of Matthew Shepard by simple thieving criminals from families as familiar to you on your side of Laramie as they were on mine...in Iron Mountain... The culture and people of Wyoming are interpreted by the actors in an honest manner from the two cowboys to Ennis's daughter and to Jack's parents.. I felt a little embarrassed by the awkward representations of murder of gay men in Wyoming in Texas and sadly felt that they had been undeftly edited and placed in the movie to get the greatest buzz from certain members of the public who require gore to validate their own personal preconceptions...but these two murders were not major in the time elapsed and were good foils to help focus attention on the brutal response that can erupt from people unable to understand the objects of their own personal fears... i.e. the rural cowboy population of Jack Twists youth...in whichboth you and I know from our friends and acquaintances in Wyoming... homosexual behaviour has always been a private, but common entity that was generally not flashed around as a public ideal in the conservative and family oriented society...just as extramarital sex and prostitution though very common are not given any kudos either.. and the frustration of Jack's wife at being excluded from an unknown endeavor that obviously gave her husband Jack a great deal of pleasure.. almost certainly she found out about the details of Jacks extracurriclar activities the same accidental way that Ennis's wife and the line boss of the sheep ranch did before her...and had Jack killed and then moved on with her new life with a ranch manager who treated her better.. Jack and Ennis are very much like many of the gay working cowboys that I know today...both in their incredible strengths and fatal flaws...I am happy that the story was told in pre-HIV. 1960s Wyoming...so that the veiwers could focus on the incredible web of interpersonal relationships that even simple people weave around themselves...and to then allow us to objectively analyze both the good and poor choices anyone can make in life...and the frequently disastrous outcomes that can come from a self-centered individual's frequently confused thought process... instead of being diverted by the present war on AIDS that has engulfed much of the gay media and thought.. I currently have an order into Amazon.com for three copies of Brokeback Mountain to use in our Bangalore and Calcutta, India programs to show married sex addicts who feel that their compulsive daliences with female prostitutes, gay men and hijara/eunuchs can do to destroy not just the lives of their innocent wives and children...but ultimately themselves as well.. India is a patriarchal culture where the women rarely dare to act as Jack's wife did and generally are not given the outlet of honourable and equitable divorce that Ennis' wife chose...the movie thus could be used in assisting the disenfranchised married women of India too.. Have a great Winter...I feel much like Tom Horn exiled to burial in the cemetery in Boulder, Colorado these days...as I am sure you might have heard that I have sold my beloved Iron Mountain Ranch to facilitate my work assisting the hijara/eunuch population in India...at least unlike Tom I can walk away into a new and intriguing life instead of being dropped into the black hole of eternity at the end of a rope.. I will forward copies of this email to Sampoorna an Indian TG group, Sappho a Calcutta lesbian group, Gaybombay a Mumbai gay group and Ashok Row Kavi my icon of Indian social work through his Humsafar Trust..
