Saudi Arabia - Homosexuality

So what happens when you hide all the women from the men? Well the men turn to their fellow men for love of course… Jail is the perfect testing ground for such a theory. See at the end of the day a man is very different from a woman… He does not look for love he looks for satisfaction. The base urges are what need to be satisfied. Only when these are fulfilled can a man even consider the higher things such as love and romance. So in jail, with no women around the man has nothing satisfied, not love, not connection, not intimacy, and definitely not the most crucial of all things… getting off. So to whom does the in mate turn to in these desperate times? Well he turns to his cell mate, his showering partner…. He does what he has to do to survive… As Jesus said, “Man cannot live on bread alone”, now it was not only the culinary appetite he was referring to here, and self inflicted pleasure can only take you so far. The same tests hold true to other institutions that leave men to their own devices, the Navy, the Army, the Air Force (except Top Gun of course….;-p), all boys boarding schools, the Catholic Church and more than any other place… Saudi Arabia.

It really is amazing to think of the complete irony of this social experiment and its blindingly obvious results. I mean what were the Mullahs expecting to happen when they covered all the women and hid them away from the men. Add to this giving men the freedom to do what the want (including money in most cases), but only with other men. All meaningful experiences for Saudi men happen with other Saudi men, and there is nothing like a meaningful experience to bring two people very close together. So there you have it… forget Kings Cross, forget San Fransisco, forget Brighton, Saudi is the place to be for a gay man in the 21st Century and Riyadh being its capital would have to be gay central and a hotspot on any mans gaydar!

As any reader of this blog would be raising their eyebrow in disbelief let me expand:

Now I have never been propositioned by anyone in my life, not man, nor woman… well a woman gave me her number once… and well lets just say that that same woman will be with me till the day I die. So besides that I have never really been approached. Well my first day here in the Kingdom I am asked by a stranger 1. Where I am staying, 2. If I am staying there alone, 3. Do I want to stay alone, and 4. If I want someone to talk to he would be there…. So yes I had direct contact with it….

Also I had been speaking to my Bahraini colleague in the office here who was driving me about the city. He was adamant as to the situation of man homosexuality in the Kingdom. He told me of a time recently when in a nightclub in Bahrain a member of the Saudi Royal family approached him, commenting on his looks, asked about how to make love to a woman and asked if he was attractive… My Bahraini said thanks and left….

Now I have more evidence but do not want to go into it, nor do I really care to. I mean it just bothers me that this social experiment here is having some pretty crazy consequences. I have no problem with homosexuality, it is normal for say about 5% of the population to be so inclined. It has been this way since the dawn of time. What is not normal is for a society to be constructed to cause homosexuality to be the norm rather than the except. But if you take all the cows out of the field, what do you think the bulls will end up doing?

And all this without a mention of the situation of women in this country…. My verdict is that this place is a mess… And the social engineering group of royal and religious people here should be ashamed of themselves. I am sure Mohammed (PBUH), would be struck dumfounded as to what has been done here in his name (not to mention the funding of terrorism Saudi petro dollars has provided…)
