Members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community take part in the Queer Azadi March to celebration marking the first anniversary of an Indian court"s ruling decriminalising gay sex between consenting adults in New Delhi on Friday, 02 July 2010.For India"s gay community, the joy that greeted last year"s court ruling legalising gay sex is tempered by the fact that, although the law now accepts them, society still does not. For all the celebrations and talk of an historic milestone, many believe it will take more than a court decision to change public attitudes toward homosexuality, which is largely taboo in India and considered by many to be a mental illness.
