Wait, now I’m imagining Muslim anime...

Tbf that would probably result in a lot of yaoi if the Ottomans are anything to go by.

Of an addendum and honorable mention is that Iran used to be a pretty wild and hip place wayyyyy back when. I mean, just look at these photos:

And of course, Iranian music.

Secular states in the region must learn from this. political Islam is a threat to humanity.

While it’s speculated a lot of Ottoman rulers were bi, a lot of them were just rumors started by the Greeks (for, ya know, fairly obvious reasons), and in most of the Islamic world, gay poems were meant to just be funny rather than taken as actual indicators of homosexuality.

The sad thing is is there are people who won’t have that reaction to this.

Before the Revolution, if you saw someone wearing the hijab, it meant something. You gave them extra respect because it meant they were actively choosing to wear it to show their devotion. But now that everyone has to wear it, it’s meaningless. Imagine if everyone in America had to wear a cross of a Star of David.

Tbf this was mainly in the major cities which were heavily Westernized not really in towns which is where most people lived.

Ottoman sultans had bisexual relationships. The Islamic world is really being hypocritical as it always does on this subject.

All in favor of building a time machine to save Mossadegh say “Aye”.

Aye!

[Jarvikan]

This decision is insane.We are going to have Disney princesses and animals wear Hijabs?

Like I said, some of them did, others were just propaganda against them.
And please stop saying “The Islamic world is really being hypocritical.” Did Egypt decide to have this ruling, too? Or Tunisia? Or Nigeria? Or Kazakhstan? Or Afghanistan?

I would assume it wouldn’t apply to animals.

make them wear CBRN gear
CBRN gear seems close enough to hijabs to count, like look at it it basically does the same thing as a hijab

So all the gay sex they were having must have been just for laughs eh. Not just the Ottomans either, the Safavids and Mughals were known for their romping with the boys.

Okay, maybe I’m not making myself clear:
Some of the sultans did in fact have homosexual sex. Meanwhile... others did not.
Additionally, I said gay poems. I’m pretty sure there’s even a Wikipedia that talks about that a bit.

The wave of pictures of cats and dogs with photoshop or MS Paint hijabs has been amusing, but I largely am with the thread. It's a beyond stupid little fatwa.

Let's talk about porn movies shot in Paris by the royals of Saudi Arabia, then. Don't you think it's hypocritical ?

[Auze]

Not sure whether to laugh or cry.

Exactly, religious devotion/compliance with religious rules is meaningless if you don't have the agency to choose otherwise.

Also, what if the female animals are depicted as intelligent, but not anthropomorphized in any other way (thinking of say, Bambi's Mother in the film Bambi)?

Heck yeah!
Like virtually every Muslim, I hate the Saudi monarchy with a burning passion.

Technically they were Caliphs and a lot of them did it, not just some. A number of non-Ottoman caliphs were in fact gay. I think it was Al-Hakam II who forced his wives to dress like men so that he could even stomach sleeping with them.

Oh and it wasn't just the leaders either, society as a whole was doing it. In Afghanistan up until recently it was common for Pashtun tribes to raid Hazara communities and take their sons as sex slaves.

Watching or creating porn is not a bad act. The people that I am angry with do not have any sexuality, they are constantly censoring, but they are experiencing a sexual revolution in them.
