The news that some of those Islamic nations who are some of the most gay-hating on earth are going to ‘test’ visitors for homosexuality raises the question So what will this test be like? Those nations who are members of the Gulf Co-operation Council are trying to cook one up but the mind boggles when considering just what the test may entail
Will British visitors be asked which pubs and clubs they go to and if they say ‘The Black Cap in Camden’ will they be immediately removed? Even more bizarrely will male visitors be shown a picture of a hunky semi-naked fireman and checked to see if they get an erection or not? What about bisexuality, how will they test for that, will bisexuals get shown one image of Page Three girl and another of the only good looking one from One Direction to see which one gets them going? How also are they going to test for lesbianism, will women with short hair be targeted for testing and subsequently removed just because they look a bit ‘dyke-y’, even though they may be a straight as a die? Any test based on interviews or by a similar test method is doomed to failure because when a persons sexuality is oppressed by the society around them, then there is an incentive to lie about who they are attracted to.
The ironic thing is many of the members of the GCC probably wouldn’t have been able to get the oil that supports them out of the ground if it hadn’t been for foreign workers, some of whom may well have been about as straight as a corkscrew.
The Daily Mail said:
“A medical test being developed by Kuwait will be used to ‘detect’ homosexuals and prevent them from entering the country – or any of the Gulf Cooperation Countries (GCC), according to a Kuwaiti government official.
GCC member countries – Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates – already deem homosexual acts unlawful.
This controversial stance is being toughened, according to Yousouf Mindkar, the director of public health at the Kuwaiti health ministry.”
If they are testing for sexually transmitted infections that are more common amongst gay men, such as Hepatitis B or HIV, then they are in for a real shock as such conditions do not exclusively affect gay men, but are present in other groups as well. Medical testing for homosexuality is a dead end, even using an individual’s particular masturbatory fantasies is no reliable guide because sexuality is increasingly being seen not as a simple split between heterosexuality and homosexuality but more as a continuum with a small number of people who exclusively gay and many more whose sexuality varies at different times of their life. If they are thinking of gene tests or brain scans then they should be aware that even though these tests can show some inherent predisposition to homosexuality they are in no way a reliable indicator of what gender a person is attracted to at one particular point in their life.
The Daily Mail added:
“He (Mindkar) told Kuwait newspaper Al Rai: ‘Health centres conduct the routine medical check to assess the health of the expatriates when they come into the GCC countries. However, we will take stricter measures that will help us detect gays who will be then barred from entering Kuwait or any of the GCC member states.’
Those taking part in homosexual acts in Kuwait, if they’re under 21, can receive a jail sentence of up to 10 years.
Earlier this month Oman newspaper The Week was suspended over an article that was deemed to be sympathetic to homosexuals, according to the BBC.
It’s illegal to be gay in 78 countries, with lesbianism banned in 49. Five countries mete out the death penalty to gay people – Iran, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Yemen and Mauritania.”
Note well that all those nations whose attitude to gay people is murderous are Islamic basket case nations. It is the ultimate in Chutzpah for the followers of Islam to demand that we non-Muslims tolerate them and their ways, whilst their compatriots in faith kill, maim and oppress those whose only ‘crime’ is to prefer their own gender when it comes to romantic or sexual relationships.
Being a ‘test’ brought in by Muslim nations it will quite obviously be biased as it will only test for homosexuality and not for those perversions such as paedophilia and bestiality that seem quite prevalent in the Islamic world.
The nuttiness and lack of credibility of Islamic ‘science’ will be exposed to the world by this madcap idea, brought to you by the same backward retarded culture that brought to you the ‘fact’ that women should not drive because it damages their reproductive organs.
These sort of tests are going to throw up some interesting results mostly because there will be those who the test will classify as ‘gay’ who will be anything but. Someone who is unfairly judged by these tests as gay, is highly likely to kick up a stink about it thereby causing more embarrassment to the GCC countries and alert more people to the stinking backwardness of Islam.

Some sensible ie non-Islamic advice on the question ‘Am I gay?’

cannot think why any person, gay or straight, would want to visit an Islamic country. Work, perhaps, but some people actually visit these dumps for a holiday. Must be barking.
About the only Islamic country that I would want to visit (or which I would even be permitted to visit bearing in mind I have an Israeli stamp in my passport) would be Jordan. As you say the only reason for wanting to visit the countries on the Arabian peninsular would be for work. They are not places where I would choose to go on holiday. You hear too many horror stories of people arrested in these places for holding hands whilst not being married etc etc. You’d have to be mad or have enough money to not have contact with the local savagery to want to go to some of these places.
Remember the Iranian who claimed to be able to see into the future? Using ‘complex algorithms’ etc, right a bit statistics then, Islamic science great in the early days, impacted on modern maths (zero comes from the Arabs) and stirrups another Arab innovation, (Charles Martell used them to give Frankish cavalry an equal footing). Since then not so good.
Like all conquering armies, the armies of Islam did pick up knowledge from other cultures and develop them. I’ve seen somewhere that what are commonly called ‘arabic’ numerals should in reality be called indo-arab numerals because that is a truer description of their origin.
Whatever advances the Islamic world had in maths for example way back in the beginning is one thing but because of the rigidity of Islamic thought and also the violence and instability inherent in the ideology any advance in certain areas was squandered. As you say at one point they had some good ideas, but for most of the last 1400 years very little original thought has occurred in the Islamic world.
