Here's the facts:
1) They don't seem to like women much. The mere sight of them, especially without being 100% coverred in black tents, puts them in a dither.
2) Muslim men hold hands in public, and kiss each other a lot.
I don't know about yhou, but these behaviors are awfully gay in my book.

Re: c4555m, That is not a good analogy. First of all, an american girl doesn't necessarily dress like that every day, if at all even. Some younger ones might, but believe me, if an american girl were dressed like that, and walking down the street, she surely wouldn't be walking along some girl dressed in the tent.
So that means that the muslim girl is walking alone, and she will be the one getting raped.
The guys will want to know what she is hiding under all those clothes.

no. they like women from the fact that some traditions allow men to have several wives or concubine if you will. but the islamic law prohibits women from exposing too much of their body in the public, thus they cover pretty much everything. however, this practice can be found in middle east, while on the rest of the planet, this practice is found differently. some only need to cover up until the wrist and the ankle length with long sleeved upper clothing and skirts or long pants as well as wearing jilbab to cover their head (not the face).
men holding hands as sign of closeness as friends, do not take it in the wrong way. older english men might hold hands too not in a romantic way though. and mind you, they do not kiss as in a sexual way (unless of course, they're homosexual) but as greetings.
look beyond your room and you will find worlds that might shock you with thrill or terror.

Yeah a lot of them are like that(just yesterday i saw a group of 3 male Arabs embracing each other)...but still not all Muslims. I'd rather you don't generalize. But there are other people who are gay but who are not Muslim, wouldn't you say that their culture is homoerotic then?
PS: Men holding hands etc is part of their culture and it shows a sign of close friendship.

If I am not mistaken, the penality for homosexual behavior under sharia law is considered adultery and punishable by death if you're married, 100 lashes if not married. You can avoid punishment, If you repent. If you are caught 4 times, you are past repentance.
Lesbians only get 100 lashes regardless of marital status.

You knew nothing about the world !
The most gay , lesbians, homosexual people are in Christians.
its only the christian who marry the same sex and approved the bills in parliament , now tell me which culture is Homoerotic
And they cover their women is the respect for them, OK tell me one thing one Muslim girl and one christian girl going on the same street , Muslim girls wearing a veil and christian just a mini skirt and a top who has DE most chances of getting raped or being tease. so there is a reason behind everything in Islam.
why do your nuns cover themselves?
So what wrong in holding hands that what your thing is stereotype, haven't you hold your dads hand in public place , there is nothing wrong in holding hands

I am not a muslin, but certainly I observed a lot of behaviour which differs from one culture (tribe) to another (tribe) in a muslim countries. I lived, eat with them and observed their culture and traditions which sometimes copied from one another through the teaching of thier Imam.
Remember that muslim is composed of 3 different minorities, they are the Shites, Sunnie, and the Fundamentalist. Each one interpreted the Qur'an according to their belief. so custome and traditions differs from one another.

well im muslim and this "tent" you call is called a hijab and it is there just for protection we dont need to wear it for our husbands we can be as beautiful as we want to be with our spouses.
i dont see why i should give other men the satisfaction of my beauty. if they are so desparate then u guys can go to strip clubs etc... funny u guys dont have a problem with such things .
and this and muslim men try and be good brotherhood and treat each other with respect, its the teaching of our prophet. islam is a marvellous thing just your not open minded enough to look closer and find the truth instead u try and put problems in your society to ours.

George Bush kisses all kinds of guys in public and holds everyone's hand too, and he is a Christian. That is hardly anything to go on.
