Always remember queer people live in SWANA queer people exsist in the middle east unapologetically everyday despite what your propaganda machine tells you, there are Arab queers and muslim queers from every country you can name from the region, yes even those countries get over your racist bias right now if you want to help us live.
Never forget this when you see people justifying the bombing and needless slaughter of the region under the banner of "they dont allow LGBTQIA people there" the laws dont sure but we the people exsist despite of it and will always be here.
Never forget this
#my university was full of queers of all kinds and we lived fine#i know and notice people in my day today who are queer#there are queer arab influencers that make it a safe space for us#i am queer and arab and im telling you this based on lived experience#my first and only kiss was with a girl and i never left the SWANA region#dont let them convince you otherwise#like i cannot stress this enough we had an actor come on tv 2 years ago defending his trans son decision to get surgery and fully transitio#and people were fine with it#once again adding that im from SWANA and im queer
