Daily Monitor:

quote:
Four students were on August 3 indefinitely suspended from Dabani Girl's Secondary School for allegedly practicing lesbianism.....

The Daily Monitor accessed one of the suspension letters dated August 3 and signed by the headmistress, Ms T. N Yiga.

The letter stated that, “Your daughter (names withheld) has been found heavily involved in the practice of lesbianism, which they carry on in the dormitory which are shared after lights are switched off.

The letter said, “This is unhealthy and unacceptable behavior in a boarding school and we have to fight the practice collectively.”
The letter said the students were tirelessly counseled against the practice which they seem to have not taken heed.

Here is an interesting site -- Behind the Mask -- that puzzlic found for us on this earlier thread about lesbian and gay activism in Uganda.

Behind the Mask is carrying this same story, I see.
