just wondering what is the ‘status’ of homosexuality in hinduism, jainism and budhism? is it forbidden? how are they treated? is it acceptable?

Re: homosexuality and other religions
In Hinduism…it is debated…there is no hard or fast rule cos it is mentioned in any text…
Heres the differing viewpoints…

Budhism as well…its being debated but it seems more of a cultural thing to dislike it…cos again the text has nothing to say about it…
