Initially, the article included some editorializing that Sivan tweeted about, calling it "disappointing." The magazine didn't immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.Īfter Sivan's tweets, Out Magazine, a national American LGBTQ publication, published an article about the interview and the singer's response. The magazine, which has a small online presence and appears to be mostly local coverage with some mainstream LGBTQ entertainment reporting, disabled Instagram comments on its post about the latest issue. In the most recent issue – that Sivan is the cover star of – the "From The Editor" note reads "Matt threw some pretty outrageous questions at Troye, but Sivan took it all in his stride." Gay Express, which also goes by "express" online, hosts its issues digitally. When the official account for Coup De Main magazine, another New Zealand-based publication with a significantly larger following than Gay Express, tweeted "sorry from the entirety of new zealand minus this person who we are now petitioning for to be removed from our country" at Sivan, he replied "Lol nooooo don't NZ is my fave and i can't wait to get there." Sivan also tweeted that he would "just do a Twitter q&a" next time, and sarcastically asked if a fan wanted to know "if i have a gayby or if I like Will and Grace like the other guy?" The interviewer, Matt Fistonich, has not responded to Sivan on any of his social media platforms. The singer quote-tweeted his fan and wrote "I thought about asking the interviewer about his absolute fave sex position after that last question, but then i remembered how wildly invasive, strange, and innapropriate that would be.

A person’s sexuality is a core part of their being and they should be allowed to stay true to it. “But, the army needs to stop brushing this topic under the carpet, because, at the end of the day, the personal becomes the political. We also have a choice.” The activist, who openly acknowledges having had relationships with prominent men in the armed forces, says that there already are many homosexuals within the force and that a ‘don’t see, don’t tell policy’ is followed. I mean, even we don’t go around raping and having sex with every other man. They don’t understand how a homosexual bonding works. You can’t say that the army can’t guarantee your safety. If a senior harasses a junior, there are ways in which the issue can and should be dealt with. Can one imagine a Platoon Commander in a relationship with another soldier, ordering the soldier to rise and open fire? It may lead to a breakdown in the basic framework of the Armed Forces where a rigid hierarchical structure is a norm and also an essential requirement,” he insists.Īddressing the issue of the safety of those belonging to the LGBTQ community within the armed forces, one of the country’s most prominent gay right’s activists, Ashok Row Kavi says that the argument doesn’t hold ground since predatory sex is unconstitutional across occupations.

“Thus, despite homosexuality being decriminalised by legislative and judicial bodies, the same cannot be adopted by the Armed Forces, without due consideration of the consequences these issues may have on the structure and functioning of the organisations. This issue of internal conflict is one that is also highlighted by retired Colonel Amardeep Singh, who says that the nature of the job calls for unflinching loyalty and obedience and hence though some of the rules imposed might seem like human rights violations to an outsider though they are necessary for the armed forces. It has to be looked at in the context of forward positions of army areas,” he says. So, an issue like this is not necessarily an abstract question of law.
