Should have been more careful as in its advice to travellers, the Foreign Office warns that homosexuality is a criminal offence in Morocco. One needs to be very careful when one ventures outside ones nanny state. Sad state of affairs indeed. Why did you need to bring up "nanny" state... do you have a problem living by societies rules? If, so, you are one of the reasons they have to make the rules... guilty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giddyup Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Gay sex is legal in the west bank. ILLEGAL in Hamas controlled West Bank. In both places, no legal protections for gays. You can't compare to pot. That's a choice. Being gay is what people ARE. So what? Just because you are homosexual it does not give you the right to break the law in a foreign country. If you don't like the law in Morroco, don't go there. A homosexual going to Morocco is coals to Newcastle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arghhhhhhhhhhh. Why don't you tell the whole truth? The official religion of Morocco is Sunni Muslim. It doesn't matter the what the religion is, it is just wrong. This was commonplace in America until the1 70's and also common in the UK and Australia as well. Not Sunni Muslim countries.

Popular Post Suradit69 Posted October 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) Another case of religious bigotry. Arghhhhhhhhhhh. While I agree it's a ridiculous and deplorable case, the British are hardly in a position to point fingers at anyone. Alan Turing who pretty much turned the tide in World War Two for the British by breaking the Enigma code and who created the blueprint for computing and artificial intelligence that is as important today as it ever was, was rewarded by his own country with chemical castration that drove him to suicide after destroying his genius and his sanity. Bigotry is a human condition. Religion may be an excuse for the bigotry or provide support for it, but it would still exist in the absence of any religious doctrine. Alan Turing – A Gay War Hero The UK Government “Hounded to Death” A World War II British war hero. A man who helped the Allies to victory by using his mathematical genius to create a machine called the Bombe, which, in turn, enabled the British government to crack the secrets of the German Enigma code. Alan Turing was his name. But he wasn’t treated as a hero at all. You see, Turing, who went on to create many new innovations including the Turing machine and the Turing Test, which is often referred to as the basis of modern computing, wasn’t given any Governmental or Royal accolades for his achievements. No. Instead, he was subjected to chemical castration as a liquid “cure” for his homosexuality, having been found guilty of “gross indecency” in 1952 after it was revealed he had been involved in a gay love affair which, at that juncture, was still a crime under British law. Turing was disallowed contact with the government’s mathematical programs of which he had been a part for decades, his security clearance was stripped, and slowly his life and its meaning was allowed to fade away. Turing committed suicide on June 7th, 1954, by virtue of cyanide poisoning, dying in Wilmslow, Cheshire, at the age of just 41. http://www.care2.com/causes/alan-turing-apology-petition-for-the-gay-british-war-hero.html Edited October 6, 2014 by Suradit69 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfill Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Gay sex is legal in Turkey but gay people face severe homophobia. Sodomy is illegal in Malysia. Two examples of more tolerant Islamic nations (in general). Most are worse, often much worse. Yes this is a major human rights issue in Islamic dominated nations. Turkey sounds a lot like Alabama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the British as others have, have modernised their views, equality of the individual..this is regressive. Bigotry will always exist but it mustn't be institutionalised and therefore deemed acceptable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humqdpf Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 As usual somebody is diverting from the topic which is not about drug mis use but the freedom to practice ones sexuality. So thanks for simple1 for pointing out that about half of islamic states forbids homosexuality, according to him. What about transgenders like Mohamed? In Iran, they offer sex-change operations for men to make them women. This is to ensure that transgender men do not sleep with other men as that would be against the religion and the law. Once they have been changed to women, then it is fine as long as they marry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baerboxer Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Another case of religious bigotry. Arghhhhhhhhhhh. Why don't you tell the whole truth? The official religion of Morocco is Sunni Muslim. Yeah. Few years ago my ex-wife and teenage daughter went there for a holiday. Both are well traveled who like different countries, cultures etc. They bought a new plane ticket and left early. The hassle they got as two women alone from men there was horrendous. Everywhere, the hotel, hotel pool, on trips, in the markets, sight seeing. Totally unbearable touching, pestering, intimidating scumbags. They found the whole place dirty, seedy and disgusting - the worse country they've been too. But do the same to one of their women and it would spark a riot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, when was slavery officially abolished in Thailand? Some countries move on, amend their behavior and develop socially. Some like Morocco don't and still live with a mindset applicable to the year represented in the Islamic calendar. Then there are those that like to pretend to change, but nothing does really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) I think it is a fair point that gay people lack full legal equality and freedom from irrational discrimination in MOST of the world.
