The Turkey number is inflated, you cannot get anyone to admit that they are gay here.
You have tried, obviously?
Some research cpmpanies have tried and found shit. Probably because we're a muslim country, people are still afraid to admit it.
yeah i guessed so..ain't it forbidden by the koran?
I think so... I didn't read all of it.
I checked my Quran. Most people thinks it does forbid it due to Sura 7:80-81 and 84.
Quote:
[7:80] And We sent Lot as a Messenger: Remember that he said to his people, "Have you become so shameless that you commit such indecent acts as no one has committed before you in the world? [81] You gratify your lust with men instead of women: indeed you are a people who transgress the limits!" . . . [84] And We rained upon his people; then behold what happened in the end to the guilty ones!
That's about it, really. Those laws in early Islamic society forbade homosexuality, but it should be understood that those are seperate from Islam itself.
