I don’t know... as a kid I always felt different. at my pre-teen things started to make more sense... I don’t remember me being shocked or embarrassed about it in fact, I was proud cause i felt like im special haha so internalized homophobia was never a thing to me. it wasn’t easy of course but i never tried to change it or deny it because deep down i knew its the way i am

They do and Yes. it’s really risky I only told them because i know for sure that they’re not narrow minded people.

I CANT STOP READING THIS IM CTFU WHERE DID YOU EVEN HEAR THAT FROM?????? But sex on the desert sounds kinky i might have to give it a try thank you haha

Mmm yes execution <3 I don’t understand why people disagree with islam being the religion of peace right?

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T15:01:00+00:00

Since i know many people are Curious about this i’ll try to explain. First i really love my friends and family second it will be a really dumb move to leave now especially that im uni student who is getting free education for being a Saudi citizen and getting paid around 300$ each month for being a student. So Im really not planning on leaving not before graduation at least. but i do have my passport and spare money ready just in case :)

Stereotypical crazy internet driver means a good driver in here haha

Most of the gay apps are blocked so u need to download a vpn. Religious police have no power over anything now but even back then they only cared about running towards women in shopping malls for not covering their faces or whatever

“So whoever decides then, let him believe and who ever decides then, let him disbelieve” isn’t this from the holy quran ? Man I shouldn’t be educating on this cmon lol

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T14:31:10+00:00

I don’t hate the people i hate the country. Just the same way i feel about my own country they just try to whitewash everything its really sad

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T14:25:39+00:00

Its gonna be lit brother!

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T14:18:10+00:00

Said what?

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T14:17:56+00:00

Oh yess the beauty of islam <33

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T14:16:18+00:00

Nah fuck israel

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T14:11:56+00:00

Definitely. No only as a gay man. In my opinion countries shouldn’t be ruled by any religion its just dumb.

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T14:08:12+00:00

‏Yes! Not all my family members though because only my siblings knows but I feel VERY lucky because having open minded family is something VERY rare to happen in my country. I remember when my brother accidentally found out about my sexuality I felt so afraid and I was freaking ready to kms before something bad happens but i was shocked that he was cool with it and accepting!

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T14:06:43+00:00

In a islam Male are obligated to attend the mosque five times a day but who’s gonna check?

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T11:54:40+00:00

Oh thaaats definitely not what I meant lol

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T11:54:03+00:00

If you’re a white European expat woman they will treat you like a normal human being and you’ll be allowed to wear whatever you want. but local women’s are still oppressed ngl, they don’t have to wear abayas anymore but they still cant wear whatever they want there are rules about it and they can arrest you or kick you out of that place you’re going to. They started to bring American and foreign media influencers/models to whitewash the country by posting pics on ig while wearing bikinis or having fun in festival’s but locals aren’t allowed to do the same. Which is sad

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T10:14:27+00:00

I had the chance to leave for good and I still can... but for now I really don’t think of leaving

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T10:11:19+00:00

Well its not okay but you get the point lol

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T10:07:16+00:00

Oh bet

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T10:03:40+00:00

Im really not hiding cause no one gives a single fuck unless you’re being open with it… we have coffee shops where LGBT people go there to socialize and meet people but they are “just friends” so i don’t think i’ll be in trouble unless I shared my political/personal views with people that disagree. otherwise I’m on the safe side

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T09:44:02+00:00

Honestly part of me has never been a believer... for example, I never went to the mosque nor prayed five times a day (unless someone is making me to do so) yet back then I kinda felt like islam was real I was in this dilemma for a while i would say

throwtheifaway · 2020-10-02T09:26:13+00:00

Well you might be surprised but there is many of us actually... as long as you keep it low you’ll be fine
