On a pseudo religious island it is less than ironic that a gay public sign of affection from a visitor is shunned upon. I know many gay people from Cayman and there is nothing wrong with their choice of sexuality. However in a world where a majority of earnings and incomes come from Tourism you would hope that simple signs of affection wouldn’t bring about a ride downtown !
I have bowed my head in shame when ignorant wanna be preachers spent an entire day shouting abuse at tourists as they disembarked their cruise ship. That is not the sort of welcome the DoT or CITA would endorse nor anyone with half a peanut for a brain.
Not to undermine the stupidity of people who stomp Iguanas to death but they are all in the same mental age group when it comes to ludicrous acts of prejudice or discrimination. I am sure the detaining officer would not have taken two women to the police station.
Thanks be to the international influences of foreign cultures on the Cayman Islands that for some part brave through & dampen some of the worst images of the islands it’s so called local patriots try to portray.
