Intro Although South Africa is one of the most liberal countries in the world when it comes to homosexuality and is the first country in Africa where same-sex marriage is legalised‚ corrective rapes still exist. This means that‚ especially in the black community‚ men try to rape lesbians with the intent of thereby “curing” her of her sexual orientation and convert her to be a heterosexual.

in 1994‚ South Africa has witnessed the acceleration of its already high unemployment rate. South Africa currently has one of the highest unemployment rates internationally.
