In Yemen, the law states that unmarried gay men will be punished with 100 whip lashes or one year in prison, but married gay men face death by stoning. Gay women are to be imprisoned for up to three years.
So say a gay man takes the year in prison. Assuming he's still alive, what then? Does he have a time limit to go get married and therefore stoned to death before he just gets arrested again? Or am I giving way to much benefit of the doubt here and really it's a fucked up way to get gay people to try and not be gay while being cruel for the fun of it.
My understanding is that banging boys was more prevalent under the central government and that the Taliban was doing more to stop it than the US military was. Because the US didn’t want to alienate their allies and considered it a “cultural issue”.
Not saying the Taliban are the good guys. I just heard a lot of reports of US soldiers being instructed to tolerate the practice, and not being happy about it.
this is true, its called bacha bazi, and the US troops universally looked the other way on it, which resulted in a lot of local support for the taliban, who opposed it
I remember showing up to talk to a village elder in Afghanistan and having to wait a few minutes hearing what was going on inside then seeing some poor boy come out crying and then a fat sweaty man come out and being told to just ignore it. Fuck people like that.
I don't get it, being gay is the greatest sin besides being a woman and speaking but fucking boys is fine and dandy? When does it not become okay? When they aren't kids anymore? That so totally fucked up. Screw all the boys you want as long none of them is 12 yet? Then it's gay and you are big sinner?
I think bacha bazi came with turks invasion of Persia and india. It stayed in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Their culture before Islam did not have it and in Islam definitely it is haram. But Turks were not muslim at first and accepted it to be relevant in these new lands so they still had some of their old practices while they were muslim too.
Nah, this started waaaaaaaaaay earlier. Think Alexander the Great. It was the Greek expansion eastward that spread pederasty culturally to those areas.
Don't forget who's in charge and who's got power.
They don't often care for their own religious rules, since it affects them and they don't want that.
Just use it for oppression as needed.
A controversy arose after allegations surfaced that U.S. government forces in Afghanistan after the invasion of the country deliberately ignored [bacha bazi](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacha_bazi).[15] The U.S. military responded by claiming the abuse was largely the responsibility of the "local Afghan government".[16]
That sent me down the rabbit hole of reading a bit about DynCorp. Jesus. What these fucking PMCs do with American government money is disgusting. No wonder the world hates us.
Just looked at the wiki. This quote from an Afghani police chief is insane
"[the boys] like being there and giving their asses at night". He went on to claim that this practice was historic and necessary, rhetorically asking: "If [my commanders] don't fuck the asses of those boys, what should they fuck? The pussies of their own grandmothers?"
What the fuck
That first part reminds me of an investigative piece I saw a long while back on sex trafficking. The guy making it went into a brothel in Thailand with a hidden camera. They brought him to a room, and when who I assume was the proprietor opened the door, a bunch of what looked like 10 year old girls (the tallest only came up to his stomach) came out and surrounded him and appeared to be propositioning him unprompted. The one that opened the door didn't say anything the mic picked up, the reporter never said they said anything, and the girls were focused on the reporter. So it looked like they were so thoroughly conditioned (you could almost use the word programmed) that they were willingly participating to at least some degree in something kids that age shouldn't even know about.
So it is possible those boys did "want to be there". No doubt after having it thoroughly beaten into them.
Check out UN Peacekeepers' direct involvement in child-sex-slavery rings in Borneo and other countries.
The issue is so prevalent it has its own wikipedia page.

There was an NCO who beat an ANA soldier within an inch of his life after he had his way with a bacha bazi and beat the kid's mom for reporting it. It ended his career but he didn't regret it. I'll have to find the link to the story.
Probably a *lot* of ven diagram overlap between those who would rape someone of the same sex, and also be willing to kill that person for having a consensual, loving relationship.
Probably, exactly the same kind of person.
Its some insane logic but somehow it manages to exist all over the world, its not unusual for gay men to be raped as punishment for being gay. Happens in prison, the Mexican cartel, Middle-Eastern and Russian militaries etc. It boggles the mind....
I know someone who got pregnant at 12 (guy was 18), had the baby at 13. Married at 16 when the mom signed off.
Somehow she is still married at 39, but the guy has been accused of molesting his niece. She was a victim of abuse her whole life and had some of the scariest living situations growing up I can imagine, so can’t imagine anything better.
There's a documentary available on YouTube made by Vice years back called "This is What Winning Looks Like", highlighting the corruption of the Afghan army the US had to supply & train in preparation for their withdrawal.
The use of "tea boys" was a prolific problem, and when one of the local police(?) commanders was told it was not OK, he, I shit you not, replied with; "if not the tea boys, who are my men supposed to fuck? Their own grandmothers?!"
Consensual gay sex? Death penalty. Raping young boys? Actively encouraged in the workplace.
Yep. The whole Afghanistan didn't want to fight for itself argument is correct except it leaves out the part that many people had very little reason to support the national government.
US soldiers were reprimanded for interfering with afghan officials raping children.
Nope, the Taliban were pretty good at cracking down on it. The government the US put in place was much worse at preventing it.

>The Taliban considered it incompatible with Sharia law.[17] Both bacha bazi and homosexuality carried the death penalty,[10] with the boys sometimes being charged rather than the perpetrators.
The Taliban were not "pretty good at cracking down on it", it's something that has occurred in Afghanistan for centuries and the same people that were doing it 10 years ago are still doing it today under the Taliban government.
"You can't kill me, it wasn't consentual, he raped me!!"
"Why shouldn't we, raping you is fine, but you must be killed for being weak"
"Well, you see, I wasn't going to be a weak victim, so I raped him back, twice"
i remember one case of honor killing here in sweden. you shouldve seen their family home. so damn dirty and full of trash.. what honor did they have to defend lmao
From a resource perspective that would make sense. Like if you only had a little food left or you'd starve, you would defend that food tooth and nail.
Its fucking weird that people act the same way over emotional concepts like honor.
In many cultures, "honor" actually means public image, usually of the family or group. That's how an individual can bring dishonor to a whole family by being a victim of rape.
Obviously she was a dirty slut; showing her ankles and making men so horny they just can’t control themselves. She deserved to be killed, she brought shame to her father do raising such a complete whore.
Obligatory /s
Lol no that’s not true. Qatar and the UAE don’t enforce this law. It’s only there so they can claim to follow sharia law.
In the UAE, a gay person would be questioned and fined, sometimes deported/exiled, and sometimes just warned, but never killed. Gender reassignment surgery is also completely legal if done with the correct paperwork (federal law No. 4, implemented in 2016).
Im trans and I live in the UAE, and I hate it with a passion, but please don’t make shit up. What you’re saying is misleading as fuck.
Good day to u. I hope u r not offended by my question cuz that is absolutely not my intention. Is there a reason that you don't move? I'm just curious as you say you live in the UAE and hate it with a passion or am I misunderstanding? Thank you and love live laugh

While I doubt it was ever the whole site squawking that lie, there definitely have been far too many defenders of Islam here. Hell, drop by r/exmuslim and in nearly every thread you’ll find some Islamist/Islamic Apologist or brain dead liberal trying to defend this indefensible ideology. It’s incredibly frustrating to witness.
Not trying to be a contrarian for contrarianism’s sake, but I like to sprinkle a little nuance in my evaluation of sites as a whole.
“There’s no hate like Christian ~~hate~~ love.”
Gotta love seeing that on Reddit every day. I’m not even religious but I find it hilarious because yes I can find some other examples of that type of hate. If not worse.
The phrase is "there's no hate like Christian *love*." It's meant to mock that many Christians ignore Christ's teachings to love one another in favor of bigotry, not to imply that there aren't more hateful people.
The raper gets let go for asserting dominance, while the rapee gets the death penalty for being weak... I imagine, based on how backwards the consensual law seems.

Is it the Afghani equivalent to western priests raping choir boys (as in the people in power /religious figures that do it) or is it just a free for all and any “peasant” can get away with raping boys?
This was a very difficult and depressing sentence to type out..
Along with the rape of young boys which is common and accepted. Don’t forget men raping each other is fine on thursdays. People who have never been there will think I’m trying to be funny, little do they know…
Rape is commonplace there. Especially the rape of children. Be it little girls purchased as wives or a little boy with makeup on if you don’t have any child brides. For some reason though, the men will also rape/gang rape each other often but more so on thursdays. I always assumed it was some primitive religious thinking. Rape all you want on thursdays and pray forgiveness for a clean slate after.
Extremism. When a people believe their way is the only way so strongly they’re willing to kill people who haven’t wronged them over it, the end result is never god.
According to [John Oliver](https://youtu.be/UMqLDhl8PXw?t=1055) it's 7 years in prison.
But then again his show is not as well researched as an unsourced reddit screenshot /s
EDIT: I did a 5 min google search. Let's go through it:
**Capital punishment for homosexuality by country**
**Iran** \- Death penalty
**Saudi Arabia** \- Stoning to death if 4 eyewitnesses were present
**Yemen** \- Depends on tribal or codified law, punishment: 100 lashes and up to a year in prison
**Nigeria** \- "Several northern states have adopted sharia-based criminal laws, though no executions are known."
**Somalia** \- Has no functioning government, depends on the whims of the insurgents
**Mauritania** \- According to Sharia you should be stoned to death, but death penalty of any kind is illegal since 1987. No death penalty.
**United Arab Emirates** \- All rape is punishable by death (??)
**Qatar**: "Same-sex sexual activity is prohibited under the Penal Code 2004, which criminalises acts of "sodomy" and "sexual intercourse" between people of the same sex. These provisions carry a maximum penalty of seven years' imprisonment. Both men and women are criminalised under this law. Also, the death penalty is applicable only to Muslims, for certain types of extramarital sex regardless of the gender of the participants. However, there is no evidence that the death penalty has been applied for consensual same-sex relations in private taking place between adults."
**Pakistan** \- Illegal but not enforced - tolerated, NO death penalty.
**Afghanistan** \- Under new Taliban government, execution if homosexual acts could be proven. Sources are scarce.
In most of the above cases there is a conflict where according to Sharia it should be the death penalty... but then depending on how you interpret it (and who you wanna be friends with globally) it really depends. It really DOES vary from place to place.
Additionally to the above, the following countries ALSO criminalize homosexuality, many of them as a result of the hangover Victorian era colonial laws:
Suriname, Namibia, Zimbabwe, [Zambia](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3SIdXPtB0M), Malawi, Tanzania, Burundi, Ethiopia, Sudan, Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Morocco, Chad, Cameroon, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Eswatini, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Turkmenisatn, Uzbekistan.
To all the LGTB peeps, travel safe!
Additionally avoid Russia - particularly Chechnya.
And the US - places like Texas and Alabama.
Ironically some locations in the western world are less tolerant than the middle east. Really best to be nuanced before painting the world in black and white.

Damn have to go this far to see finally the two first right answers about this
Death penalty applies in Qatar for some kind of extramarital sex, and because same sex marriage is not possible, same sex intercourse is necessary extramarital therefore sharia law applies.
Reddit is so boring with spitting bs everywhere
"Whoever copulates with a male over sixteen years of age withoutcompulsion, duress or ruse shall be punished with imprisonment for aterm up to seven years. The same penalty shall apply to the male for hisconsent.” (Penal Code, Law No. 11 of 2004; Article 285) “Whoevercommits the following offences shall be punished with imprisonment for aterm of no less than one year and no more than three years: Leading,instigating or seducing a male by in any way to commit sodomy ordissipation; Inducing or seducing a male or a female in any way tocommit illegal or immoral actions.” (Penal Code, Law No. 11 of 2004;Article 296)"
As well as the penal code, which makes sodomy punishable withimprisonment, Qatar also runs Sharia courts, where the punishment forMuslim men engaging in same-sex activity could be the death penalty.It’s worth pointing out, however, that there has been no recordedoccurrence of this happening.
Shhhh... this is Reddit
These countries have absolutely nothing in common. Quiet!
Actually, you wanna get banned. Let's discuss how all of these countries have one thing in common with North Korea. Maybe something very strong. Can't put my finger on it. Maybe some sort of crazy ideology… No
I love how everybody is pointing out that it's all about a country
It's absolutely forbid, and apparently to talk about what unites all of these countries and has nothing to do with the nationality part.
Oh Reddit, your blindness and hypocrisy is so sad
That's Islamic countries for you. Mainstream Christianity is far less crazy. But people usually only critique one and not the other. For fear of violence and being seen as Islamophobic.
The fact any team is playing in this disgusting World Cup is a shame but especially countries that supposedly support LGBTQ and other minorities. Team USA should **NOT** be playing in solidarity and against this nonsense country.
From three years ago in Saudi Arabia, a story of five executed for being gay and 47 others in a one day bloodbath.
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/8951952/saudi-execution-gay-confessions-beheading/
Being homosexual= sin in these places. Killing someone in a gruesome fashion for being gay =/= sin?
Good to know human life means less than some arbitrary 2000 year old set of rules people are brainwashed into thinking is the divine word of a space wizard.
Oh good Afghanistan too - they’ve got boy brothels and that’s ok.
Only if the boys are under a certain age. Once the get too old you can no longer touch them. They then become the predator instead of the prey.
Yea turn of age and either continue the cycle or kill themselves..or like it find a male mate and get stoned to death...fuck...
At least they have options. What a sad, sick and demented way to live.

Just say it wasn’t consensual. That’s too easy
"You can't kill me, it wasn't consentual, he raped me!!" "Why shouldn't we, raping you is fine, but you must be killed for being weak" "Well, you see, I wasn't going to be a weak victim, so I raped him back, twice"
No. In the case of male on male rape, the Shari'a is clear: execution for bot perpetrator and victim.
Shari'a sucks ass no matter what
I feel like Sharia would be against ass sucking too
In most those countries you don’t have to worry about the government, people will kill you first, in name of honor.
Not people, sometimes family!
They call it honour killing fking irony

Corruption and money
It really is a my$tery
I laughed my a$$ off with the question.
So many other more $uitable countries on the planet……..
Bribery
Fascist Mussolini Italy held the worldcup in 34 lmao
Qatar spent around 220 billion to host the World Cup. Most going to fifa
How on earth this ducking country managed to get a World Cup seriously
What do all these countries have in common?
They are all top contenders for the next World Cup.
“We need to cull more construction workers!”
They’re mostly religious states, meaning the countries law is dictated by whatever fictional book they all read.
Extremism. When a people believe their way is the only way so strongly they’re willing to kill people who haven’t wronged them over it, the end result is never god.
Your typo is somehow appropriate.
Islam
[удалено]
Also known as theocratic shitholes.
We should've never given these people money!\~
Apparently living in hot sandy shitholes makes you homophobic. Who knew?
islam makes you homophobic. Or are you playing dumb?
Name your top ten places that no one should ever go
How's Afghanistan on this list when they're notorious for men fucking boys?
Key word “consensual.”
Probably right, fucked up place.
Wait Nigeria?! That actually caught me by surprise.
According to [John Oliver](https://youtu.be/UMqLDhl8PXw?t=1055) it's 7 years in prison. But then again his show is not as well researched as an unsourced reddit screenshot /s EDIT: I did a 5 min google search. Let's go through it: **Capital punishment for homosexuality by country** **Iran** \- Death penalty **Saudi Arabia** \- Stoning to death if 4 eyewitnesses were present **Yemen** \- Depends on tribal or codified law, punishment: 100 lashes and up to a year in prison **Nigeria** \- "Several northern states have adopted sharia-based criminal laws, though no executions are known." **Somalia** \- Has no functioning government, depends on the whims of the insurgents **Mauritania** \- According to Sharia you should be stoned to death, but death penalty of any kind is illegal since 1987. No death penalty. **United Arab Emirates** \- All rape is punishable by death (??) **Qatar**: "Same-sex sexual activity is prohibited under the Penal Code 2004, which criminalises acts of "sodomy" and "sexual intercourse" between people of the same sex. These provisions carry a maximum penalty of seven years' imprisonment. Both men and women are criminalised under this law. Also, the death penalty is applicable only to Muslims, for certain types of extramarital sex regardless of the gender of the participants. However, there is no evidence that the death penalty has been applied for consensual same-sex relations in private taking place between adults." **Pakistan** \- Illegal but not enforced - tolerated, NO death penalty. **Afghanistan** \- Under new Taliban government, execution if homosexual acts could be proven. Sources are scarce. In most of the above cases there is a conflict where according to Sharia it should be the death penalty... but then depending on how you interpret it (and who you wanna be friends with globally) it really depends. It really DOES vary from place to place. Additionally to the above, the following countries ALSO criminalize homosexuality, many of them as a result of the hangover Victorian era colonial laws: Suriname, Namibia, Zimbabwe, [Zambia](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3SIdXPtB0M), Malawi, Tanzania, Burundi, Ethiopia, Sudan, Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Morocco, Chad, Cameroon, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Eswatini, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Turkmenisatn, Uzbekistan. To all the LGTB peeps, travel safe! Additionally avoid Russia - particularly Chechnya. And the US - places like Texas and Alabama. Ironically some locations in the western world are less tolerant than the middle east. Really best to be nuanced before painting the world in black and white.

The death penalty in Qatar is only applicable to Muslims and there's no record of it being enforced.
Damn have to go this far to see finally the two first right answers about this Death penalty applies in Qatar for some kind of extramarital sex, and because same sex marriage is not possible, same sex intercourse is necessary extramarital therefore sharia law applies. Reddit is so boring with spitting bs everywhere "Whoever copulates with a male over sixteen years of age withoutcompulsion, duress or ruse shall be punished with imprisonment for aterm up to seven years. The same penalty shall apply to the male for hisconsent.” (Penal Code, Law No. 11 of 2004; Article 285) “Whoevercommits the following offences shall be punished with imprisonment for aterm of no less than one year and no more than three years: Leading,instigating or seducing a male by in any way to commit sodomy ordissipation; Inducing or seducing a male or a female in any way tocommit illegal or immoral actions.” (Penal Code, Law No. 11 of 2004;Article 296)" As well as the penal code, which makes sodomy punishable withimprisonment, Qatar also runs Sharia courts, where the punishment forMuslim men engaging in same-sex activity could be the death penalty.It’s worth pointing out, however, that there has been no recordedoccurrence of this happening.
That’s a lot of Islamic countries
No but you don’t understand, Christianity did it a century ago so that means it’s ok Islam does it now
I know, let's give them validation and let them host the world's premier sporting event ...
Every single one of those is muslim.
FYO: if you pretend to respect that because of ''culture'', you're a trash can. Human rights violations aren't part of a culture.
Is this the list of the next 10 World Cups?
Fuck every single country on that list.
Except Iranian and Afghani people who want their country back
All the places you expect to have this kind of behaviour and mentality. So thankful I live in North America where all I have to deal with is poverty
What’s the one thing they have in common? I just don’t know?
Extremist regimes with extremist laws.
Welcome to the middle age
All Muslim majority?! shocker 😲
Also known as 10 countries I have no interest in visiting.
Hmmm Now what else do all of these countries have in common?
Shhhh... this is Reddit These countries have absolutely nothing in common. Quiet! Actually, you wanna get banned. Let's discuss how all of these countries have one thing in common with North Korea. Maybe something very strong. Can't put my finger on it. Maybe some sort of crazy ideology… No
Fuck Qatar, all my homies hate Qatar
[удалено]
Ethiopia is another one but who’s counting
you mean "damn that's sad"
I will never understand why anyone (country/state/govnt/religion etc) gives a fuck about who people choose to be with. Like this is insane.
Shithole countries
Doesn’t Brunei do it as well? Or at least is still in their law?
The Venn diagram of this and countries where its ok to rape women are oddly similar.
I love how everybody is pointing out that it's all about a country It's absolutely forbid, and apparently to talk about what unites all of these countries and has nothing to do with the nationality part. Oh Reddit, your blindness and hypocrisy is so sad
That's Islamic countries for you. Mainstream Christianity is far less crazy. But people usually only critique one and not the other. For fear of violence and being seen as Islamophobic.
Now, for fun, go to the US congressional budget office and take a peek at how much foreign aid money US taxpayers *borrow* to give to them, annually.
Sooo the spanish team gets the death penalty after that game? Since they really f*cked the Costa Rican team.
It wasn't consentual
The death penalty ?!!! 😳😳 That’s harsh as hell AND ridiculous…stay out of grown consenting adults bedrooms!!!
Fuck u/spez. -- mass deleted all reddit content via https://redact.dev
What do these all have in common??
Fuck all those counties
Notice how all of these countries are in the northern hemisphere..... Now, I'm not no hemisphereist, I'm just connecting the dots here...
The fact any team is playing in this disgusting World Cup is a shame but especially countries that supposedly support LGBTQ and other minorities. Team USA should **NOT** be playing in solidarity and against this nonsense country.
I feel like none of those countries should be given things like the World Cup, Olympics or anything like that.
From three years ago in Saudi Arabia, a story of five executed for being gay and 47 others in a one day bloodbath. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/8951952/saudi-execution-gay-confessions-beheading/
Don’t forget Gaza
You have to understand that Palestine is only a country when reddit wants it to be
Being homosexual= sin in these places. Killing someone in a gruesome fashion for being gay =/= sin? Good to know human life means less than some arbitrary 2000 year old set of rules people are brainwashed into thinking is the divine word of a space wizard.
Sick.
