I don't speak Arabic -- though I recently ordered the beginner module from Rosetta Stone which still sits in its wrapper on my desk shelf. (I am in the Arab world a lot however and learning more each trip) Perhaps after the conventions.
But a friend, Foued Mokrani, speaks Arabic just fine -- and reported on his Facebook page the following after watching a film during a flight to Paris:
I watched the movie The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and noticed they translate the word ''gay" to ''pervert" in the Arabic subtitles!! Very dumb.
Mokrani responded:
Somehow there is no decent word to say homosexual in Arabic. . .They started recently using a word for it but still very unfamiliar one.
In Arabic, there is no exact word to say "homosexual." People use bad words like faggot, pervert, or just use the sentence "liking people from same sex." Recently, a few people started using the word "mithli" modifying the word for "sex" -- meaning "same as me".
What they used in the movie is "pervert" to translate the word gay -- or "cheth" in Arabic.
Other commenters on the Mokrani thread wrote that Arabic also tends to describe gays as deviants -- using words like "munharif" and "shadh."

pervert and deviant work just fine.
LOL, after watching “The Rise of Jordan Petersen” I got the feeling he was angry and gratuitously slapped them across the face with that statement just to get a rise out of them, and he sure did...I can admire someone who takes the time to slap an enemy across the face with a dead fish to rile them up for no other purpose than they needed slapping!
Funny you would say that...when I wrote the original post, I wrote a final short paragraph at the end that was addressing exactly that point, but...I was under a time crunch and couldn't formulate it, so I deleted it from that post.
What you said above was almost exactly what I was trying to elucidate. Good job.
“They would maintain their status is no different than someone with red hair . . .uncommon, but not abnormal”
First they paint a circle on their butts, then they execute them afraid of what they might tell.
How about Islamanomaly!
Good luck getting the Muslims to take the perverts’ feelings into account.
SO?
Accurate.
I have been trying to get across to Americans who think mohammedans are "social conservatives" and should be on "our side" that they are no such thing.
It is really a perverted and twisted society both sexually and morally.
