I was once at a Persian celebratory dinner and all the men started doing this (although they were not wearing these outfits but Western garb).

Although middle Eastern cultures are outwardly homophobic, their behaviors are not just deeply homosocial but even sometimes downright homoerotic.

You're not too far off. Back in the 90s I had to go to Saudi Arabia for work twice. One thing that was glaringly obvious was that every household had a Filipino houseboy. I mentioned this to one of the American men in our office there and he filled me in that these houseboys were there to help around the house, and to provide sexual release for the husband of the family after the wife stoped putting out.

by Anonymousreply 24September 3, 2022 9:45 AM

I think you’re misinterpreting what I was trying to say, r23. Islam is full of hypocrisy; they’ll show disgust for the decadence of the West, yet they’re history is filled with horrific things like the sexual abuse of young children.

Those boys are dancing a "debka". The origin is beduin. As stated upthread, a debka is danced at celebrations. Only men dance a debka.

[quote] Some of the men's head coverings are red gingham, the others are white. Is there a cultural meaning for this,

The head covering is called a kefiyeh. The different colors signify clan, and, in some cases, social status. The red kefiyeh is usually beduin. Some of the despotic clans ruling the Gulf, such as the al Sabahs of Kuwait, wear white kefiyehs.

[quote]I once had an Iranian acquaintance who took exception when he was called "Middle Eastern"

No surprise that he would take exception to Western-invented classifications. Same reaction used to happen with "Arab", until it took on a political context.

Why should we not sexually objectify thus remove the agency and personhood of those who dehumanize gays? It sounds pretty fair. These men hate being treated like how they treat women. All those "tricking straight guys" videos are all about a gay power fantasy and humiliation of homophobes. Everyone here knows how these cultures treat gays and women. Doesn't mean we can't point out the hypocrisy and homoeroticism that's pervasive in the cultures as well.

Muslims fast a lot. So that plays a role. I used to fast during my Christian childhood a lot but stopped as I grew nonreligious. But I went back to fasting for the health benefits and it is useful for maintaining healthy weight and feeling good. It's very easy to overindulge and eat a lot of junk with all that's accessible in The US. I can do a day of just drinking water.

I love that video at R39 ! That song is perfect,whoever picked it was genius. Its funny how i hear how homophobic Arabic men are (like black men) yet my experience with them was far from negative. I once got a job at a c-store working for this smoking hot Egyptian guy. Very good looking,very arrogant ,very sexy. 2 days after I started he closed with me one night and before you could say Jack Robinson I was bent over a pile of milk crates as he fucked the shit out of me. Over the next couple of weeks there was a noticeable uptick in Middle Eastern men coming in the store,and blatantly flirting with me. I was 36 and no spring chicken ,but very femme and obviously gay .Long story short,for a few months I had 5 regular fucks and a couple of occasional fucks. They LOVED fucking my white plump ass.

Few years after that I was in Atlanta working for a restaurant owned by Saudis. Within no time I was sleeping with the owner and 2 of the workers. I never even had to hard cruise them either,it just was right there. One I kind of fell in love with a little. He had an amazingly hairy body and the stamina of a teenager. Married sadly .I think he was a little in love too. Maybe its just me,but I didnt get the homophobia from any I encountered. Yes,I see how homosexuals are treated in some countries,but overall thats not been my experience.

We wanted to make visible what has remained invisible for too long”: in Paris, an exhibition offers, for the first time, a journey through the queer culture of the Arab world, which is also jostled by gender issues.

Entitled “Habibi (my love, editor’s note), the revolutions of love”, this exhibition starting Tuesday at the Institute of the Arab World (IMA) does not want to be a “militant manifesto”. It intends to "make visible the obvious and what has remained invisible for too long": the cultural ferment of the Arab world on these issues, assures its president Jack Lang to AFP.

In total, 23 artists (painters, photographers, visual artists, illustrators, etc.) from the Maghreb, Mashreq, Iran and Afghanistan, but also from the diaspora — are exhibited.

“The idea is to present to the public this abundance around these themes and the fact that we are on a young generation who seizes on these subjects and who makes them the primary source of their creations”, explains to the AFP Elodie Bouffard, curator of the exhibition.

An abundance that can be found in the 7th art with the films “Le bleu du caftan” on homosexuality in Morocco or “Joyland”, a Pakistani film worn by a transgender actress. Both were presented at the last Cannes Film Festival.

Literature is not to be outdone, as evidenced by the book "The youngest" by the French writer Fatima Daas, on her refusal to choose between her homosexuality and her Muslim faith, which had been an event of the literary season there is two years.

R41, even though I believe this actually does happen, please remember that the United States and it’s CIA are knee deep in the propaganda behind this and we usually ONLY see what the CIA allows to happen, so we can see.

All of this is not what we are made to believe it is. I’m not saying this country or Islam isn’t homophobic AF, but MANY of these monsters are allowed to continue on their merry way, because the CIA and the US military have chosen to do business with some of the FILTHIEST pieces of shit, ever known to mankind.

I love my country. I am an American patriot in the truest sense of the word, but I know we have VERY dark ties to people we wouldn’t even spit on or piss on, if they were on fire.

Is it worth it? Is it worth having assets who rape little boys and beat the living shit out of little girls who are forced into arranged marriages by their own families, in order to gather human intel?

I dunno. Ask the CIA and the Generals who are/were on the ground in these literal shitholes, filled with kids, women, and LGBTQS, who pay the price while being raped, maimed and murdered regularly.
