Sexual apartheid
Yes, it's Another Apartheid Afd. However, unlike Israeli apartheid, this one doesn't look at all like a widespread term. It says "Sexual Apartheid is a term used by some same-sex rights advocates", but the references don't back this up, as the three external links all refer to Peter Tatchell. So if this article was rewritten to fit its sources, it would say "Sexual Apartheid is a term that Peter Tatchell used a couple of times", and having articles on every political catchphrase under the sun would be unnecessary forking.

- Delete - this is POV fork for many articles on this subject already in wikipedia. The only reason for this and several "apartheid" articles created by Homeontherange (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) was to have the Dismabiguation page in which Homeontherange (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) can highlight the term "Israeli aparthide" in bold and hide the south africa era. All is part of an elborate scheme to make a WP:Point (while disrupting wkipedia) and turn wikipedia to what it is not. Zeq 12:36, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- Delete non-notable term. It is interesting to observe that contrary to Homeontherange's view that "sexual apartheid" refers to LGBT issues, while "gender apartheid" refers to discrimination of women, the sources do not support it. For example, this Washington Post article refers to discrimination of women in Saudi Arabia as "sexual apartheid". Pecher 14:02, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
