im muslim and gay, and I just came out to my mum, and now she hates me :(

I'm sensing a little hostility towards Muslims here. Maybe I'm wrong but there seem to be more towards this post than just the gay thing. I'm not Muslim btw!

It's not hostility, it's called being realistic.

I know quite a few non religious gay white people who had horrible experiences when they came out to their families. So how do you explain that?

I explain it as I suspect you're completely made it up. Considering I'm probably a little older and likely considerably more knowledgeable about gay stuff, I trust my gut instinct that you're lying through your teeth about them being horrible experiences. And even if you're not, it's a pretty worthless anecdote standing next to substantiated academic work on the subject.

Also, how charmingly naive you are when it comes to religion. As if Muslim countries don't execute gay people (and exclusively... only Muslim countries do this). And that the harshness of punishment for homosexuality is proportional to how Muslim a country is.

And that in a poll a couple of years ago of a few thousand Muslims in Britain about whether they thought homosexuality should be tolerated, the rate of positive answers was 0%. Not one.

I suppose straight people who are never actually going to put up with Muslim homophobia can afford to be naive like you are.

Dont worry buddy, god doesnt exist.

ANYWAY. If you have been living with your gf for 6 months, i think your old enough to take care of yourself. So nicely tell your mum to **** OFF. This is a joke, u cannot hate anyone for being who they are, especially if they are happy.

For example another country that executes gays is Uganda, not a Muslim country

There is no question homophobia runs deeper among Muslims than it does among the "open minded" socialist hoard you call friends

Well.having read some of the Koran and Hadith he probably thinks it would be more acceptable for a. man to rape a slave girl or beat his wife

Is that what theyre calling Islamaphobia nowdays...

It's what reactionary, knee-jerk idiots are calling Islamophobia, sure. I'll grant you that

TSR is not the place to ask, everyone will tell you to go do whatever you want, when in fact that's probably the best way to get yourself killed. People on these forums have no idea about other cultures

Dude, what did you expect... It was adam and eve not adam and steve... Its kind of stupid that homos exist... It means females are not needed when it comes to sex... Or simply a kid may be scapegoated if he has 2 dads, and u dont have a place in your local islamic community if your gay so just start repenting and learn to love women... Its much more pleasurable and normal
