Paraguay’s Ministry of Education banned public schools from using or spreading materials on “gender ideology,” a move critics say promotes discrimination toward women and LGBTQ people.
At a press conference in September, Education Minister Enrique Riera said the government recognizes "traditional values" and the "traditional family," consisting of "father, mother and children."
“We naturally respect different options, but we're not going to instill them in our public schools," Riera said, according to local newspaper ABC Color.
Riera, who officially issued the ban in an Oct. 10 resolution, specifically called out as problematic material that stated "gender is a social construct." Under pressure from conservative groups, Riera also said in a speech on Oct. 5 that he would burn any books that spread “gender ideology.”
While homosexual activity is legal in Paraguay, the country has a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage and has no legislation intended to fight discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.
The Christian magistrate sacked for his views on same-sex parenting has now lost an appeal against his dismissal from his job with the NHS.
Richard Page, 71, was removed from his role as a magistrate after he said it was better for children to be brought up by a father and mother rather than a gay couple.
He was subsequently dismissed from his position as non-executive director of the Kent and Medway NHS and Social Care Partnership Trust after he defended his views on the BBC. Trust chair Andrew Ling said then: 'The recent publicity you have courted is likely to further undermine the confidence staff, particularly Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgendered staff, have in the leadership of the trust. Links between the stigma often associated with being LGBT and poor mental health are well established.' He said it was vital that patients and local people were confident the trust would challenge stigma or discrimination and treat everyone fairly and impartially.
Page appealed against his sacking but according to the Daily Mail, an employment tribunal has now ruled the Trust was justified in refusing to reinstate him.
He was supported by the Christian Legal Centre, who head Andrea Williams, said the judgment amounted to a 'perverse attempt to silence Christian beliefs.'

Based paraguas. Paraguay is a highly traditionalist and catholic nation, I hope that cultural Marxism doesn't propagate in best guay. Now they need to fix their economy and sovereignty regarding their natural resources. Also remove BR from ciudad del este, or tax the shit out of them. Ps: Kill cartes/lugo/zurdos
Millennials draw no distinctions between discrimination protections that should be afforded gay and lesbian people, on the one hand, and transgender people on the other. More than seven in ten (73%) millennials support legal protections against discrimination in jobs, public accommodations, and housing for gay and lesbian people. A nearly identical number (72%) of millennials say they favor these same protections for transgender people.
While no significant racial or gender differences exist on either question, there are large religious divides in support for expanding nondiscrimination legislation. Roughly eight in ten black Protestant (80%), white Catholic (82%), Hispanic Catholic (81%), religiously unaffiliated (83%), and white mainline Protestant millennials (78%) favor laws that would protect gay and lesbian people against discrimination in jobs, public accommodations, and housing. About two-thirds (66%) of Hispanic Protestant millennials also favor such laws. White evangelical Protestants are closely divided on this issue, with a slim majority (51%) favoring laws that would protect gay and lesbian people against discrimination, and 47% opposing them. Among religious groups, the pattern of opinion about non-discrimination legislation protecting transgender individuals is nearly identical.

Good to know they're fighting degeneracy there. The US could learn a thing or two from Paraguay. Give fags an inch, they take a mile. No more tolerance.

Would you honestly be willing to live in Tanzania or Paraguay?
The Tanzanian government said Saturday it had suspended an NGO it had accused of promoting gay marriage in contravention of local "customs, traditions and laws".
The move followed a police raid on a Community Health Education Services and Advocacy (CHESA) center, which is accused of being involved in "the promotion of marriage between people of the same sex".
The government said "marriages between people of the same sex are unacceptable in Tanzania as (they are) contrary to the customs, traditions and laws of the country".
CHESA stands accused of organizing last Tuesday a workshop for gay couples in a hotel in Dar es Salaam, the country's largest city.
Police made 12 arrests Wednesday at the hotel, including two South Africans and a Ugandan, for presumed homosexuality.

It is a brown poor landlocked shithole. Don't kid yourself.
“I often draw an analogy between Jewish and LGBT philanthropy,” says Chris Bartlett, William Way’s executive director. “There is an expectation in Jewish philanthropy that people will step up to heal the world. Jewish institutions have put in place that expectation. The LGBT community has to have the same seriousness of purpose. I think part of Mel’s frustration is that many in the LGBT community haven’t been convinced of the need to invest in LGBT causes, so they give to the opera or the orchestra.”
Heifetz’s presence in the community has, Bartlett said, “made the case to many other donors that we are worthy of that investment.”
Most people who oppose gay rights are old. Young people are far more likely to identify as gay and to support gay rights whether they personally identify as gay/bi or not.

Christine Boutin, a right-wing politician best-known for her outspoken opposition to France's gay marriage law, has announced her retirement from active politics.
The 73-year-old former housing minister and presidential candidate announced she was standing down from the last elected position she holds - as a departmental councillor - at a press conference at the headquarters of her small Christian Democrat Party on Saturday.
A devout Catholic, she declared proudly that she had never betrayed her convictions, despite being "ridiculed" and "mocked for being old-fashioned".
First elected an MP in 1986, she attracted attention in 1998 for her robust opposition to the Socialist government's proposed civil unions, arguing, notably in one five-hour speech throughout which she brandished a Bible, that it would encourage homosexuality.
Reveal your flag. Anyways, it really isn't, Asunción got its issues but you can always go to Encarnación, and live really comfortably. And if you're an expat it's not hard to fit in with the jetset or become acquaintanced with people in the paraguayan zeibatsus.

Most of the ones who leave are lower income people (less than 10k a year) who comes to Argentina to do the work that the argies don't want to do (construction mostly) and healthcare. Some of them like it too much here and then stay, but I've known of people that after completing X goal (building a house or whatever in Paraguay) they go back.
It's a shame because most of the people that comes here could work in Paraguay doing the same thing without leaving their families, the gov should realize these and make use of the surplus of blue collar workers and start doing some infrastructure for once.

I guess that KGB didn't had much influence in Paraguay because it wasn't worth it to train people in the paraguayan traditions ,and how to subvert them, and/or language (guaraní). Although now that most of the paraguayan youth from middle class families has access to internet, it's easier for them to find the degeneracy. Also Paraguay had a right wing dictatorship for +-30 years, so I guess that had something to do with all of this.
Anyways, I don't get why dtGkVGdP and former IDs posts gay related propaganda even if it's not related to Paraguay or whatsoever.

(((hispanics))) in the USA are a bunch of mexican degenerates with single mothers
mexicans are by far the most liberal and faggy spics in the world, and when they become welfare leeches raised by the state in the US they get even worse

So what? They've other issues to care about rather than something that's important for the 0.00005% the population. ¿Why do you care? Are you a gay paraguayan? If so, move to Argentina, you'll find more of your kind.

We will though. It is next on our agenda.

That's too bad for them, and I hope that they find their way soon. However even if I see where are you coming from, your comment is not really relevant in Paraguayan affairs at all. I suggest you to complain about the subject in reddit and places where your voice might receive some positive feedback because I doubt it will happen here.
Ethan Martinez
Kill yourself already faggot. Everyone hates you cockbreath.
Nicholas Wilson
Don't waste your time, he just want degeneracy to spread without taking into consideration the individual situations of whatever country the news talk about anyways. LGBT "rights" will be a reality, but it's not something necessary now, maybe in 20 years when people grow comfortable but I don't know if I ever want that to happen. Paraguay stay stronk!
good christianity with it's love thy neighbor and only god can judge bullshit is what led to fags being allowed to exist in the first place. Let's not forget catholic churches helped protect queers.

the gay agenda will reach a peak, but then it will collapse on itself
people are supporting it now, because the media pushes it and it's "cool" to appear open minded
but soon this degeneracy will be obvious to everyone when
Michael Phillips
it's no longer a big deal to be gay
Luis Bell
I hope you're right Joao, but I think they'll pursue something more degenerate. Being gay is like really old news (that doesn't refrains me to want to execute every gay parade fag) How's it going on your turf?
Elijah Rodriguez
they'll just push tranny shit stronger and stronger
Charles Wilson
The United Kingdom is not a developed country.

I guess that I'll have to call that greek dude that post dead trannies. I saw today a video from a gay pride parade in Asunción and they were asking for trans quota and stuff like that. They literally want to have more privileges than your average folk like Ramón or Jacinto. Unbearable. But as I recall trans in Paraguay are more like comedic relief for talk shows and similar. I don't mind that, but when it comes to changing laws and related, I feel like they should be re-educated with a high and quick dose of lead to the frontal lobe.

Nowadays they belong to the bongs, but pretty much all the of arguments regarding sovereignty are in favour of the Argies, however The Hague is of course in power of the Brit empire, not to mention that my homeboys fucked up with the war. Different times, different context I guess.
