leave the country if u can’t cope with it!
WOW, i cant believe this is real. thank you for posting this.
this is the closest we can get to an LGBT community in the UAE. its good
knowing there are more out there who are fighting for our rights.
please leave the country, please.
Stop this horrible thing you do.
Thats nice, i really hope you find your inner peace and stop thinking about
suicide…..
BUT lets put some facts
This world is not perfect, and sometimes with all the efforts we make still
it will be not perfect.
UAE is not banning homosexuality because they don’t like it, they ban it
because all Abrahamic religions bans it. the national anthem of UAE says “a
Public with Islam as their religion”. see i know that its tough for you and
i really feel sorry for it but the same way you want UAE to respect your
difference, you should also respect their different views.
All you can do is immigrate to a country that allows homosexuality, and
guess what…. by then you will see the real “unfair”.
once you apply even for an american/canadian visa, they ask you like 1000
questions, they treat you like a scumbag (the embassy staff are very rude),
and in many cases they even reject your application after paying their
expensive VISA application fees. and if you ask them why it was rejected?
they will tell you any crappy reason and ask you to apply again and pay
their application fees AGAIN!!
they treat people as if they are inferior to them and thats horrible.
you see UAE is not perfect, but at least they dont treat their residents
like inferior subhumans
I find this video to be amazing for LGBT people in the Middle East,
especially those who live in Islamic countries! I’m not a Muslim, nor gay,
but I STRONGLY support the LGBT community! 🙂
And to those who are strongly against homosexuality because the Koran says
so, allow me to ask you this: you surely don’t, nor could you technically,
follow EVERY single thing the Koran says, and that goes for pretty much
every religion out there, so then why make the LGBT community suffer so
much because of it then? Exactly how better of a person do you believe it
makes you?
Dubai is shithole
As an expat mother of two living in Sharjah – and more so as a human! – I
am so proud to see this video. It takes courage to speak out in such a
traditional culture. I would like to be part of this organization and do
what I can to help. How can I be involved?
Anyone can attain God’s love and salvation. I believe most people are
basically good and loving when given the right tools and opportunities to
express and show their humanity. God bless the Lgbt Community. Love Rickie
The only thing ruining your country is that you use God as a tool of
hatred. God made gay people, your “qu’ran” belongs in middle ages.
astaghfirullah -_- allah ya5sich anshallah
Let’s Talk That is Right,Good to have Hope to Live youer Life.
i’m 100% sure that you’re not an arab. you just came here to the UAE and
ruined it. stop
You are hurting so many great people with your hate and ignorance!! Stop
it! there are gay people ALL over the world…you wont find single city
without a gay person if you have a problem maybe you should get out to a
deserted island. They are trying to make life better for ALL human beings,
keep your narrow mindedness to yourself. I have a lesbian cousin and i LOVE
her she my best friend. NOH8.. This just shows how muslims really are, how
sad.
I am an arab, a Kuwaiti, my partner is Emarati he loves his country. There
is nothing wrong with being gay, we love the UAE just as much as you do.
Open your eyes beyond what you were taught, beyond your comfort zone. Don’t
be afraid. You are clouded by ignorance, you act like an insect, understand
what is not of you – you were given a brain and faculties for a reason, use
your rationality. We are human with feelings, love kindness pride and
faith. There is nothing that separates us.
SHARE BABY, SHARE ! <3
I don’t believe Muslims can accept homosexuality as normal in near
centuries..
Even Straight couples aren’t able to express their love in public, this is
the culture, doesn’t matter what your sexual orientation is. 4. Painting
the symbol of the UAE ” Falcon” with LGBT colors is extremely disrespectful
and I strongly believe it will be counter-productive to your cause and wont
help your message. Thank you
People like you ruin my precious UAE.
You are citing prehistoric science (I’m sorry, but have you been living in
a cave?). Saying homosexuality is a psychological condition is like saying
the world is flat (yes, indeed, how you think may be characterised as daft
and archaic). Being gay is a way of being, just like you are a being who is
heterosexual or possibly a closeted being. What remains absolutely
frustrating though is your lack of empathy for human kind, and your lack of
openness, how could you be so close minded? It’s so sad.
I’m planning for a translation or an Arabic version just have a few
projects on the go so might take me sometime
Why is this in English?
i’m so happy to know that even in the middle east in severely homophobic
nations the lgbt community still can not be silenced. I believe that one
day all homosexuals will be given fair and equal treatment under all laws
globally.
This video is even more depressing when you figure out both Arabic and
Russian countries are sending soldiers to kick open their doors and moving
them to either asylums or removing them out of their home countries in
general. With such beautiful culture yet with such hateful political views,
I can understand why suicide can sometimes be a logical choice. 🙁
I grew up in Abu Dhabi and boy it was tough for an Arab …. But this video
is amazing,
Try using a condom and stop being so hateful. Love knows no gender.
Your kind words keep us going thank you!, [email protected] email us 🙂
UAE is a muslim country and if you don’t like it then get out
This is the best video that I have ever seen.
@LA12411 WTH !! why is it we don’t fit in!! do we have something missing
are we a handicap or something!!! FYI we have allot of things to talk
about…
But we are from here, and we have just as much right to live here as you
do. Put what you know of religion aside for a second and focus on your
humanity. God never preached hate, God created everyone equally, everyone
includes homosexuals – perhaps our reason for existence is our impeccable
style and penchant for all things feng shui – but either way, we are good
and we are kind. There is no devil, the devil is the human, the angel is
the human. God is love. We are of love. Get over your hate.
LOVE IT
time will reveal everything just set and watch….then we will know who is
the caveman hhhhh
