Originally Posted by Yahoo News Italian court says gay man can drive ROME (Reuters) - A Sicilian court condemned road authorities on Monday for suspending the driving licence of a man after finding out he was gay. The court on the Mediterranean island said being gay was merely "a personality disturbance" which had no bearing on a person's ability to drive, Ansa news agency reported. The 23-year-old man, who was identified as Danilo G., got into trouble with the road licence authorities in the city of Catania after they discovered he had been exempted from military service because he was gay. The authorities suspended his driving licence ahead of further checks on his "suitability" to take the wheel. The man's lawyer, Giuseppe Lipera, denounced the move as "utterly scandalous and offensive" and has demanded 500,000 euros in damages. "Danilo ... is deeply perturbed by what has happened. He has lost his hair and is suffering shock," Lipera was quoted as saying by Ansa. In a written ruling released on Monday, the Sicilian court said: "It is clear that sexual preferences do not in any way influence a person's ability to drive motor cars safely." The judges added that homosexuality "cannot be considered a true and proper psychiatric illness, being a mere personality disturbance". Homosexuality is legal in Italy, but openly anti-gay comments from politicians and officials rarely cause a stir.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that gay men are more feminant? (*no intention to make a 'sexist <-- edited' war* )

Lol humans of the feminine persuasion are not necessarily a different race, it would be a "sexist war"
