Malaysia "on the lookout" for gays...

[Archae]

Malaysian news site Malaysiakini published “guidelines” for spotting gay and lesbian “symptoms,” which the site says come from the country’s Education Ministry and were presented during a seminar in Penang.

For boys, the signs listed include wearing “V-necks” or sleeveless clothing or carrying “big handbags, similar to those used by women, when hanging out.”

Symptoms of lesbianism for girls included “having no affection for men.”

The federal government said in March that it is working to curb the ‘problem’ of homosexuality,” Reuters reported.

Last year, the Malaysian government also set up camps for “effeminate” boys to learn masculine behavior.

Good to see a country with its priorities straight.
