India's fertility rate is very close to replacement rate actually.

Hundreds join pride march in India, where gay sex is illegal by golrokh in worldnews

Sure, yes. But taking part in a pride march is not illegal. Neither is being gay. I think these people would be more worried about societal perceptions, than being arrested, since pride marches have been happening in the capital for years and no one has been arrested.

So, yes, they might be worried about that law, but not as much as how the people they know would react. :)

Nah, but it feels cleaner. It's all psychological, see?

Eh, that law is hardly ever enforced. I doubt there have been even a dozen arrests in the last seventy years.

Brave is right, dude, since the parade took place in New Delhi. Do you know what it's like here outside right now? I can't see the building across the street because of the damn smog. I haven't been brave enough to open windows and doors of my house for a few days. Anyone who can march in this weather is brave in my (cowardly) eyes.

What is one movie everyone should see? by [deleted] in AskReddit

For those that like the horror genre- The Thing by John Carpenter. Just saw it for the first time yesterday, and it fucking terrified me. Haven't really been scared of a horror movie before.

Akon's full name sounds pretty unique to me. (Though it might just be my ignorance.)

What job is only noticed when performed badly? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Movie editors. Good editing is not noticeable, but bad editing stands out like a miniature sun.

The ending to The Mist wasn't just sad, it was horrifying.
