Also some articles about Freddie's school connection to Panchgani: "Freddie Mercury - lead singer of the group Queen - learned to play the piano and first performed on the stage at St Peter's boarding school in Panchgani, Maharashtra. On his birthday today, we look at his life and his first gay contact in school. Barney Henderson writes."
Early gay days
It was around this time that the young Freddie began to explore his sexuality, and in the all-male dormitories, it is likely that he had his first homosexual experiences. "Homosexuality exists in any school and it was certainly did in St Peter's at the time that Freddie was a student here," says Patrao.
It is Freddie's sexuality that has led to the Parsi community and India spurning the musician who has become a hero to so many around the world.
"When he moved to Mumbai, he was apparently close to a boyfriend there," Patrao said. "His father would have been informed and I'm sure very disappointed. The family has a very rigid background going back generations, and Zoroastrians completely forbid homosexuality."Wow...

Although there is nothing wrong with stating facts, the above gif crosses the line into political speech which is not permitted on this site.

Wuff. ■ political, race, sexual orientation or religious posts/threads are not allowed and will be deleted. ■ no re-posting of any item seen elsewhere, that is likely to breach any of the above rules this isn't about being anal. this is about adherence to forum rules - designed to keep the peace. stop and think: where do we draw the line? someone complains that something they posted was removed, but your gif was allowed. it has to be all or nothing. published articles relating to freddie's growing up are relevant to the history of the band itself.

Context in which the gif was posted (jokingly) isn't important? Sorry for challenging the moderation. Not trying to be a troll or anything, but i'm genuinely disturbed by this policy.
