2-paisa trad quoting from the Vaishnav Smriti like he’s some expert - but is really just a fraud.

1 - brAhmaNasya rujaH karaNam

Causing (bodily) pain to a BrAhmaNa; (38.1)

Will make you lose your caste. So doctors who hurt Brahmins are sinners and must do penance. https://twitter.com/hayatokaw/status/1305146565678440450
2- aghreyamadyayor ghrA tiH

Smelling at things which ought not to be smelt (such as excrements), or at spirituous liquor; (38.2)

So - if u have been to a bathroom or railway station or restaurant serving alcohol you lost your caste and are a sinner who must do penance
3-jaihmyam

Dishonest dealings; (38.3)

4- paZuSu maihunA caraNam

Sexual connection with cattle; (38.4)
puMsi ca

And (sexual connection) with a man (or unnatural intercourse with a woman): (38.5)

So no doggystyle with women, or sex with men. It doesn’t specify oral sex. So perhaps lesbianism is ok?
iti jA tibhraMZ akarANi

By committing any of these crimes one loses his caste. (38.6)

Put your hands up if you give a shit about losing your caste
jA tibhraMZ akaraM karma kRtvA yatamam icchayA
caret sAMtapanaM kRcchraM prAjApatyam anicchayA

He who has knowingly committed one of the acts effecting loss of caste shall perform the SAntapana penance; he who has done so unawares should perform the prAgApatya penance. (38.7)
Sāntapana (सान्तपन) refers to type of penance for expiating (prāyaścitta) sins (pātaka) according to the Manusmṛti XI.213.—Accordingly, “Subsisting on the urine of cows, cow-dung, milk, sour milk clarified butter and a decoction of kuśa grass and fasting during one day and night
that is called a sāntapana-kṛcchra. On approaching a prostitute prājāpatya-kṛcchra should be performed and on approaching a widow of other person, sāntapana-vrata is the expiation”.
tryahaṃ prātastryahaṃ sāyaṃ tryahamadyādayācitam |
tryahaṃ paraṃ ca nāśnīyāt prājāpatyaṃ caran dvijaḥ || 211 ||
the Prājāpatya - eat in the morning for 3 days, then in the evening for 3 days, then for 3 days food got unasked, and for the next three days he shall not eat
These obscure lines are used to say that Sanatan Dharm considers homosexuality forbidden. To that I say bullshit. And this poor attempt by abrahamic trads to bring it line with Islam is even more ridiculous.
They are doing this out of personal dislike and playing fast and loose with the scriptures to mould them to there will, in effect just like Sullas. Do not fall for this. Do your own research.
