Homosexual violence
Ugandan King Mwanga II engaged in sexual relations with his male subjects.
Many were martyed burnt to death between 1885 and 1887 on the orders of Mwanga II, for denying him gay sex when they converted to Christianity.
The SMUG's report is a response to the anti-gay bill proposal passed in Ugandan parliament in 2009, and is aimed to prove that same sex relationships existed throughout Africa, including the territories that now form Uganda, before the colonisation.

According to the report, a commonly cited reason for maintaining, or expanding, criminalisation of homosexuality nowadays, is that homosexuality is "un-African" or, in other words, a foreign phenomenon. The report does not say that it is un-African but that it is unhealthy, violent, against marriage, against the community and against faith in God.
The LGBT research, tried to show that throughout Africa's history homosexuality has been a "consistent and logical feature of African societies and belief systems", and that Uganda's laws criminalising homosexuality originates entirely from legislations introduced by the British colonial administration in 1902 and 1950.

The LGBT movement refuses to acknowledge that homosexuality is in every culture because it is called sin. The LGBT movement also refuses to acknowledge the violence that homosexuals perpetrators imposed on others.
