(South Africa) - Gays and Lesbians in Soweto have had enough of the homophobia in the huge township. On Saturday, they took to the streets in a march aimed at stressing the need for more protection for homosexuals in the township. Several of the 150 participants - mainly women - who joined the third annual Soweto Pride March wore T-shirts with the words "Pissed off woman" and held up placards with slogans such as "Lesbian rights are human rights" and "Dying for justice". The "Dying for justice" slogan was a direct reference to the brutal murder of two Lesbians in July, The two women - Sizakele Sigasa ,34, and Salome Masooa ,23, - were raped, tortured and killed in Meadowlands, Soweto.
