Kuwaitis plan to apply for 'gay' rights


Kuwait City, Jul 9 (IANS): A group of citizens in Kuwait have planed to submit a request to the Ministry of Social Affairs and Labour next month to announce a "gay" society in the Muslim nation where LGBTQI members can be prosecuted under a "debauchery" law.

The representative of the group told the Al-Rai Arabic daily on Monday: "A long discussion took place among 30 founding members, which resulted in taking a decision to make an application next month to the Ministrys to approve the establishment of the society under the name of ‘Freedom'," the Arab Times reported

The representative added that the goal of the society was to promote awareness and culture.

He added homosexuals will be able to join the society provided that a member plays an active role in raising awareness and help community members who are subjected to harassment and persecution.

"We submitted a request in 2007 and was rejected, but this time the reasons are based on human, civil and economic rights of homosexuals..."

Homosexuality is illegal in Kuwait under the Sharia law.

    There is nothing gay about the homosexual lifestyle. Homosexuality is a rebellion against God and nature.

    "So who created LGBT, intersex?"
    Ask your elders or your own conscience and you would get the right answer.
    How human reproduction process continues ? Is by intersex?

    You are grossly mistaken sir.
    Intersex is a physical condition where a child is born with ambiguous genitalia. Its male and female.
    Hence doctors suggest surgery and assign one of the sex. But nobody knows do they identify themselves as male or female. This is by birth... Hope you understand. Unless you think Satan created them like that.
    Think about transgenders who donot identify with their physical gender.
    You think its a choice that they are in thrown to the streets? They asked for it?
    Our society has a very long way to go in "acceptance"
    You have to be thankful that you are blessed to be one of the defined gender.
    Not all are that lucky

    Homosexuality is a psychological unnatural sexual orientation. It should not be legalized.
    After a few years there will groups advocating legalization of pedophilia!! Will the society accept that too?

    Homosexuality is between two consenting adults. In Pedophilia, there is no consent from the minor. Get it in your head. Consent... No consent.. If there is NO CONSENT, it is a crime. Marital rape, Grooming for exploitation, rape, murder, abuse. Don't group it all together because you have been living under a rock.
