    Czechs Slammed For strange Test For Gay Refugees
    Posted: 12- 9-10 12:13 PM

    The Czech government came under heavy criticism from one of the European Union's leading human rights agencies for continuing to implement a bizarre method of determining whether homosexual asylum seekers are legitimately gay, the BBC is reporting.

    The Austrian-based European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights said the Czech Republic is the only known EU nation which continues to use "phallometric testing," in which male asylum seekers who claim to be gay are hooked up to a device which monitors blood flow to the penis while being shown heterosexual porn. If the device determines that the applicant became aroused while viewing the pornography, he will be denied asylum.

    The agency said in a report that the practice potentially violates the European Convention on Human Rights as it "touches upon a most intimate part of an individual's private life," according to the Associated Press. Furthermore, the reliability of the test is questionable because "it is dubious whether it reaches sufficiently clear conclusions." The agency also noted "many [applicants] might have suffered abuse due to their sexual orientation and are thus specifically constrained by this kind of exposure," and that bisexual people were unlikely to pass.

  2. look, don't you get it.

    all you have to do is say you're gay, and you can have anything you want, 24/7, no questions asked, don't tell.

  3. Lol, what if they are bisexual? What if they find porn gross, and get turned off by dodgy mustache-wielding pot-bellied Swedish guys?
     
  4. A study by Philadelphia's Monell Chemical Senses Center, published in the Journal of Psychological Science reported that "gay men were found to be particularly good at detecting the musk of other gay men.

    We don't need no stinkin phallometric testing. lmao

    :D

    or

    The gay in question could post a picture on line and Rennick could be da judge. He generally calls 'em as he sees 'em.
     
  5. Maybe the gay man who watch heterosexual sex will have the blood flow because he can see a man. Maybe he just look to the man? That is the stupid test because the gay man can see a naked man.
