Homosexuality is not only still a social ill and a religious crime in Zambia, but it is also still not legal. And whenever one broaches the topic, its pretty easy to get oneself drenched wet in all the homophobia and gay-bashing. But in this new generation of the famous Ben Lombe, everyone can slightly feel a shift in the social air, its subtle but very strong!

Zambians aren’t people to engage in intellectual debate, their emotions, culture and religion top all scientific truth or factual analysis, so the best way to appeal to their misguided intuitions is comedy! Make them laugh themselves out of their own ignorance and you would have worn them over to your side of the narrative.
