Please calm down.  This last post of yours doesn't even make sense.

Others are simply pointing out that you are mistaken about the reality of Dubai and Abu Dhabi.  While homosexuality is technically illegal in the United Arab Emirates, people are not arrested for it, and they certainly aren't executed.  You are simply required to do all sexual activity, no matter how mild like holding hands, in private behind closed doors.  If it's any consolation, the straights have to follow the same rules.

Stop assuming that all Muslim-majority countries are like Iran.  If you don't want to go to the UAE, fine, nobody is forcing you.  But the least you could do is stop spewing falsehoods.

Not sure what I said was wrong. people don't arbitrarily regulate others. if that is triggering, that's a reality, so it's others' "emotional hurt" that's the issue there.

Congratulations!  Two posts in a row that make no sense!

I said nothing wrong in both cases.

if others say I cannot comment, fuck them. I say what I want. as all HUMANS can. it's their bad impulse control or social sense that they have to work on. 

If this "doesn't make sense" then I'll just laugh and move on.

I guess some people simply think most Muslim countries are stuck in the past.

Dubai and other wealthy countries unfortunately are the exception, not the rule in the Muslim world but not all countries are the same. Some openly police any suspicious gay activity others simply ignore as long as it happens in private but also based on the ethnicity and nationality of those involve in the act. 

I agree with you that we shouldn't spread conspiracy theories of fake news about Muslim countries. 

Interesting how wealth makes people mind their own business and respect the private lives of others.

you tell me then where people "regulate" others. doesn't happen! it's how grown adults behave! try and "regulate" me then, see how far you get, "wise sir!"

Funny how this post went from 'how to' straight to 'try me!'.

Fact is many many providers visit Dubai to make $$$$. Spoke to some travelling providers i met on this topic, they all agree Dubai is the place to make big bucks - high hourly rate, rich clients (though not the easiest bunch to satisfy). 

Echoing sentiment certain westerners seem to look at rich muslim/ asian countries from dated glasses.

As long as you do it behind closed doors, you are fine. Stay in a western, 5⭐️ hotel. RM and Hunqz are your friends. Pick a boi. Invite him over. Close the door. Stay behind it. Have your fun.  
 

See the sights. Have great cuisine. Shop.
 

Repeat. Leave.

I know an insta-hunk that used to get flown to the Middle East by a wealthy man, and would spend time at family gatherings on their yacht.  So that aligns with the comments suggesting men obviously get with men over there.

I know a gay couple that traveled to Dubai for vacation.  I questioned them how safe it was in Dubai.  Long story short, they said everything is available for sale.

That said, it does sound like one ought to remain discreet, and take it behind closer doors.

Preferably behind the closed doors of a western five star hotel. 

There’s a huge difference between what goes on in public and what is permitted behind Golden Gates. There’s a huge difference between what is tolerated with tourists and what is tolerated with locals. And of course there is huge difference between the treatment of those who have money and those who do not.

If you go in with western, democratic values and attitudes….you’re in for a rough trip.

In Saudi, they are pretty strict. Even secular Islamic states like Turkey are pretty hardcore on it. 

These blanket statements are worthless. Saudi and Turkey are larger than France. While there are general rules that apply everywhere, some cities can be exceptional.

Riyadh for example becomes pretty open relatively during the Winter season there. You will find the # of escorts there double during that time because things get more relaxed as the expectation for tourism rises.

Istanbul is still surprisingly gay friendly despite an Islamic party ruling over the country.

In the Arab/Muslim world, it is best to follow the don't ask/don't tell mentality. This applies to both straight and gay interactions. It's not just about legality or religion, it is a cultural thing. Discretion is paramount, and to put your vices on display is simply poor etiquette and undignified.

I lived in Dubai for some years and traveled extensively thru the Gulf region.  Just keep your affection out of the public eye and you will be fine.  If you hire someone from an ad, be sure to meet them in a public place like coffee shop etc and don't talk about sex.  If you like them ask if you can hire them to show you around the city.  If they come to your room do not get any money out until after the sex.  Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha and Bahrain are basically similar to being in London.  I would not do anything in Saudi or Kuwait.
