It's kinda amusing how the fertility/procreation strawman started and is already the leading theory for why this bill has been tabled. If you'd listen to a Ghanaian distill it down for ya:
No one in the country cares what homosexuals do. It's not like married couple already get any benefits from the government. Public display of affection is considered rude: I won't dare to kiss my girlfriend in public. Among a familiar group we may hold hands. Gay or straight the culture of the country forbids sexual expressions. Now why the bill then? My theory is, the opposition party is trying to make the incumbent unpopular. They know the current government/President tends towards liberalism and are taking advantage of it for one of two things: (1) he refuses to assent the bill, in which case his party will face certain defeat in the next election, or (2) assents and faces the wrath of the world. He won't do (2) and very likely will play his cards well to avoid/defer (1).
That is, I consider this the game of politics. Let's see how it plays out.
