📰 Indian-American gay couples find new forms of union amid stigma(恥辱)
🀄 同性戀在印度社會是丟臉的事,印裔美國同志伴侶在當中尋求新的結合方式
When Sameer Samudra and Amit Gokhale decided to marry according to Hindu custom, the couple faced an unexpected(意想不到的) hiccup(麻煩): they couldn't find a priest(神父) to do the ceremony.
📌 當 Sameer Samudra 和 Amit Gokhale 決定按照印度教習俗結婚時,這對新人遇到了意想不到的麻煩:他們找不到牧師來主持婚禮。
"We wanted a Hindu wedding, but so many pandits (印度教士) [priests] said no. I was agonized(極痛苦的) when one of them quoted(報價) an exorbitant(過高的) amount(金額) just because I am gay!" said Sameer, who lives in North Carolina.
📌 “我們想要一場印度教婚禮,但有很多教士 [牧師] 說不。當他們中的一個人僅僅因為我是同性戀而提出過高金額時,我感到非常痛苦!” 住在北卡羅來納州的薩米爾說。
Unwilling to have "the energy of a reluctant(不情願的) priest" at their wedding, the couple improvised(即興發揮).
"One of our friends learnt the basics of being a priest and we chose Hindu rituals(儀式) that made sense for a same-sex wedding," Sameer said.
📌 這對新人不願意在他們的婚禮上擁有“不情願的神父的能量”,他們即興發揮。
“我們的一個朋友學習了成為牧師的基本知識,我們選擇了對同性婚禮有道理的印度教儀式,”薩米爾說。
So many Indian-American couples dream of a big fat Bollywood-style wedding, complete with traditional rituals. But that's easier said than done for gay couples - even in the US where same-sex unions were legalized(合法化) in 2015.
📌 很多的印度裔美國夫婦都夢想著舉行一場盛大的寶萊塢式婚禮,並配有傳統儀式,但對於同性戀伴侶來說,說起來容易,做起來難——即使在 2015 年同性結合合法化的美國也是如此。
More than 300,000 gay couples have wed in the country since then. But Indian-Americans say that they are often ostracized(排斥) by those who have the holy(神聖的) task of solemnizing(隆重慶祝) their unions.
📌 從那時起,該國已有超過 300,000 對同性戀伴侶結婚,但印度裔美國人說,他們經常被那些肩負著舉行結合儀式的神聖任務的人排斥。
Temples refusing to host same-sex weddings, priests hanging up on their phone calls or unwilling to tweak(稍稍調整) the ceremony to suit them and, in some cases, not even showing up on the day of the wedding - these experiences have driven Indian-American gay couples to fall back on friends and well-wishers to create unique ceremonies rooted in their culture.
📌 寺廟拒絕舉辦同性婚禮、神父掛斷電話或稍稍調整儀式以適應他們,在某些情況下,甚至在婚禮當天都不露面——這些經歷推動了這些新人依靠的朋友和祝福者,創造植根於他們文化的獨特儀式。
Sapna Pandya, for instance, became a priest herself although female priests are virtually(實際上) unheard of in Hinduism.
📌 例如,Sapna Pandya 自己成為了一名神父,儘管在印度教中幾乎聞所未聞的女神父。
She did it because of the opposition she and her Pakistani(巴基斯坦的) Muslim wife, Seher, faced when they wanted to get married the traditional way.
📌 她這樣做,是因為她和她的巴基斯坦穆斯林妻子 Seher,在想以傳統方式結婚時面臨反對。
"I didn't feel comfortable going to the temple to see a priest. My wife didn't feel comfortable going to the mosque(清真寺) and asking an imam(伊斯蘭領袖尊稱). So, we wrote our own ceremony," Sapna said.
They chose Hindu mantras(真言) and verses from the Koran(古蘭經) that symbolized companionship.
📌 “我不喜歡去寺廟找一位神父。我的妻子不喜歡去清真寺問伊瑪目,所以,我們編寫了自己的儀式。”Sapna 說。他們選擇了象徵伴侣關係的印度教真言和古蘭經中的經文。

當時一家叫做「salina」的汽車廠向Lee公司要求製作褲子上縫上一件類似夾克外套來保護衣服,因此就成了這樣Union-Alls的開端
lee 還有個廣告標語寫著:
“A suit of Union-Alls under the seat of every auto”
Lee的連身工作服就是當時最好的品質保證

熟悉歐洲、身處歐洲的香港人請繼續努力,尤其要讓歐洲的普羅大眾瞭解香港的問題以及終國對他們的威脅,讓他們從下而上給政府壓力。
當然,終國佬一定要企硬,不准龜縮,因為龜縮的話,我們看見終國解體的日子又要等多一會了。
//“The European Parliament calls on the EU and its member states to consider filing a case before the International Court of Justice, alleging that China’s decision to impose national security legislation on Hong Kong violates the Sino-British Joint Declaration” as well as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights...
...Supported by the leading groups in the parliament, the draft resolution also calls for the European Union to follow Britain’s example and provide a “lifeboat policy” to those Hongkongers who wish to leave the city.//

岸和田城
岸和田城(きしわだじょう)は、大阪府岸和田市岸城町にある城。大阪府指定史跡。別名・千亀利城(ちきりじょう)。
概要
和田高家の創建当初は、現在の岸和田城跡から約500m東にあったといわれており、現在の城跡付近には古城という地名が残っている。その後、羽柴秀吉の紀州征伐の拠点として再築城され、その急ごしらえで造られていたものを、小出秀政が5重天守を上げる本格的な構えとした。
松平康重の代に総構えと城下が整備され、岡部宣勝の頃、城の東側に2重、西側に1重の外堀と寺町が増築されている。文政10年(1827年)に天守を焼失。以降再建されないまま、明治4年(1871年)に廃城とされ、まもなく破却された。
猪伏山(いぶせやま)と呼ばれた小高い丘の上にあり、本丸と二の丸を合せた形が、機の縦糸を巻く器具「縢」(ちきり)に似ていることから蟄亀利城(後に千亀利城)と呼ばれるようになった。城内にある岸城神社は千亀利と「契り」とをかけて、縁結びの宮として知られている。
天守
天守は、付櫓を付属させる複合式と呼ばれるもので、板張りの壁面であったと見られている。正保年間に幕府へ提出された泉州岸和田城図、いわゆる正保城絵図では、層塔型で板張りの天守が描かれている。元和5年(1619年)に改修または組み換え等の改変を受けたといわれており、それ以前の天守に関しては詳しく分かっていない
犬走り
現存する内堀石垣の下部に周堤帯が存在する。これを犬走りと呼ぶ。城の防衛という見地から見ると非常に不利であり、なぜこのような構造にされたかはわかっていない。脆い泉州砂岩で造られた石垣が崩れるのを防ぐためという説が有力である。
