French Government Seeks “Universal Decriminalization” of Sodomy
The French government plans to use its upcoming presidency of the European Union to push for the universal decriminalization of sodomy, according to news reports.
It has also announced its endorsement of the “International Day Against Homophobia” (IDAHO), a day that commemorates the World Health Organization’s decision to declassify homosexual orientation as a mental disorder in 1990. Controversy about the decision continues to exist among mental health professionals and others.
