111) Sexual Orientation- Part II

A fellow free lancer has written an article about the most popular post here (the 1oo comments one), and I thought of sharing it with you (after Mohaly's permission) specially there were some of you (like Tamer Rizk) who asked Mohaly to re-open it to comment.

Although I don't agree with his notion of the more people means they are right, & keeping it public but I am still for the freedom of sexual orientation, and so is Mohaly (he just adds "you are free, but keep the distance :)

"The popularity of gay lifestyle is evident from the number of gay dating sites that has sprung up on Internet in recent times. It is a blessed platform for closeted gays to contact gay males for gay sex, romance and love relationship as anyone else would wish for.
Out Personals, Queer - these words characterize gay lifestyle, which till today is not an accepted mode of life to a large populace on this planet. Even in modern, fast-paced societies where liberal attitudes and sexual liberation are a norm, gay men are looked down upon.Country politics and social caretakers indulge in raging debates on gay lifestyles and gay rights in discussion forums, parliament, and conventions.
There is a marked hesitancy in accepting gays in government services and other public enterprises, though some nations have accorded acceptance but more has to be done. The crux is that homosexuality is in practice since ages and it is still as popular, without any signs of receding or vanishing from the face of earth. Then why not accept it since it does not impinge on anyone’s privacy or way of life. Nor is it detrimental to the society since gay dating lifestyle is a much-closeted practice.
I am not advocating gay life as a gay-which I am not-but what I want to stress is that everyone has a right to express his or her sexuality and practice as long as it does not hurt others. The reason behind ridicule or sneer of gay lifestyle is that it is a biological aberrance as sex is for procreation and a man-to-man sex does not give birth to new being.
But then, anal sex practice is not limited to gay couples only, it is much practiced by straight couples too, so what is funny. Sex is for procreation but it is for pleasure too, and any which way you can. Therefore, “Out” sex practice is not restricted to guys only but rather practiced by straight lifestyle followers in some way or the other. So live and let live.

I will, I just don't have much time these days, wel mawdoo3 da 3ayez rawa2an. I don't want to write anything that offends someone, or something that makes you get me wrong. I know it's a very sensitive subject(it's very sensitive for me in a way because I had a gay friend for more than 15 years without knowing it) so please wait till thursday and I'll tell you my story.

Yasmine said...

i was really touched by your story tr.
but i completely agree that family dysfunction is the main cause of homosexuality; overbearing mother, missing father, abusive father...
you will always find these factors in the background somewhere...

i was watching a religious tv show once, and someone called to ask about 3ekab rabena for homosexuality... and a guy called, confession being a homosexual, fully aware that it's 7aram, and saying he cant pretend to be straight, and wouldnt get married because it wouldnt be fair to the girl, so he's just keeping away from el razeela to save himself from 3ekab allah.
so maybe treating it is not that easy or simple...

Tamer, you seem to be a great friend who cherishes friendship. The situation is not easy, but keeping his major secret is a MUST. If you are really not offended with him being your friend and gay at the same time, then call him and ask for a meeting, and tell him how you feel, and nothing has changed. The situation will be hard for you, but akeed not as hard as his.

For the trans...etc, Just avoid, me and my friend were harrased in spain, and then decided to know about where are the public gay areas and simply avoid being there.

But there is something I think it needs another post about homosexuals and straight marriages.
Will add it today ISA.
