They talk about current status and historical positions on same sex marriage in Europe as they stand on the date of recording. The episode then deals with the question of the extent to which homophobia as it exists in laws of many of the countries, is a colonial export from european countries. We take an illustrative example of India, where there is literary and historical evidence to suggest acceptance of homosexuality, but British Colonialism changed that for the country. Finally, we put light on efforts by european countries like germany and Netherlands, to put safeguarding of rights for LGBTQIA+ Individuals as a part of their foreign policy and diplomatic efforts, with illustrative examples from the german government to include the agenda as of March 2021. Here is a list of all the European Countries and the status of Same Sex Marriage Legalisation in them as of October 2021: https://www.scribd.com/document/540067235/List-of-European-Countries-and-their-colonies-and-status-of-same-sex-Marriage-in-them To know more about the Symbiosis Chapter of EuroHorizons and our initiatives, please visit: https://symbiosiseurohorizons.wordpress.com/
