I'm curious what is this medical test ?

Gulf States specially trained Immigration Officer - 'Are you Gay'

Tourist - 'No' ...

Immigration Officer - 'Next'

And if he's wearing a white lab coat that's the medical stuff taken care of I thought perhaps they'd set up a few bar stools and put some gay guys there to watch - gaydar seems to be accurate within 200 metres and seems fairly accurate.

You'll be OK in Dubai. The security officers won't touch you and won't use wands. If you beep as you go through the loop you'll have to go back round and remove stuff until you stop beeping. Until you don't beep you don't go through. It's best to make sure that you move all metal stuff to your hand luggage (which is scanned by the usual x-ray machine) before you get to the loop.

I was only thinking if the rubber gloves came out I'd hope they'd have candles and a nice bottle of plonk to set the mood.

With an A380 full of passengers to get through I don't think they've got time for too much romancing. It's a matter of 'Brace!' - 'Next!'

I believe it will be a quick, cut-and-dried psychological profiling based on this sure-test:


HOW TO FIND OUT IF YOUR BOYFRIEND IS GAY

"“Is he gay?” is probably one of the first questions for girls when they see a nice looking guy out on the street. The population of gays seem to increase incredibly nowadays. You can probably see gay guys in every corner of big cities....."

"Has a good sense of humor" and "eats healthy food," clinched it for me. All the Kuwaiti screeners will have to do is present a choice of salad or donuts, then tell an Arab joke. If he takes the donuts and/or has even a hint of a giggle, it's a U-turn to the deportation cell!

There is an issue in Oman, though.

[sustento]

So that would be the Onan from Oman?

I'm going to move this to the travel forum. It deserves a wide audience.

Gulf states will have clinical screenings at airport to 'detect' homosexuals and stop them entering the country

Routine clinical screenings of expatriates entering Gulf Cooperation Countries (GCC) such as Kuwait would be introduced at airports

Kuwait and other states will conduct medical tests in an attempt to “detect” homosexuals trying to enter Gulf states, a senior official has announced.

Yousouf Mindkar said routine clinical screenings of expatriates entering Gulf Cooperation Countries (GCC) such as Kuwait would be introduced at airports. Persons who are identified as LGBT through the tests would then be refused entry into the country.

Speaking to local daily paper Al Rai, the director of public health at the Kuwaiti health ministry said that whilst medical centres already conduct tests to assess the health of those entering Kuwait, they 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.”

Is it true you can test for bottoms anyway by checking ... well ... figure it out!

The airport body X-ray machines should take care of that, shouldn't they?

[nisakiman]

Is it April !st? I seem to have lost track...

I'm struggling to believe that even our muslim brothers are capable of quite this level of asininity.

On second thoughts...

For a moment there, I thought the link was serious. I was getting an identity crisis, because I am always out of trend, never bite my fingernails, and don't care about a perfect eyebrow (I don't even know what that is). Luckily I saw your comment before converting to heterosexualism.

I wish at least some of the issues mentioned were true for most gay people though - such as "Know how to mix and match clothes." Unfortunately, gay men wear socks with sandals and shorts just like straight guys.

They will be scanning visually for ''that'' walk, so think all must practice a Rambo walk, chew gum and spit now and again.................

As least it's not a place most gay men would WANT to go to in the first place.

Homosexuality (male) is punishable by six years imprisonment in Kuwait.

What is the practice in Kuwait and all the other GCC countries? Homosexuality is also punishable in Malaysia, Singapore and Dubai.

My own experience in Arab countries is that people just do it.

how utterly barbaric and Inhumane that anyone would even contemplate such stupidity...if they discover a gay man what will they do? buggers belief!

[Jingthing]

I wonder if the boarding airlines will be asked to assist in the pre-screening?

[nisakiman]

I wonder if the boarding airlines will be asked to assist in the pre-screening?

Given that a fairly high proportion of air stewards are gay (just my observation - I may be wrong), I rather doubt that any assistance would be forthcoming!
