Sounds like a risk taker to me. I'm surprised he isn't buried in an anthill somewhere.

Jarhead. It's:
  1. Get the money
  2. Hide the money
  3. THEN get de-peckered.

Wonder if the Saudi said "enough is enough since I'm used as a woman I might as well be one."

In Saudi Arabia? I question the timing of this. Have you ever heard of a gay moslem? They don't exist(for very long).

What is the punishment for transexualism in the Saudi Kingdom with islamic law?

If it is death, then his family can redivide the estate.

Wanting to be a female muslim indicates a high degree of need to have your ass whipped regularly.

Actually, it is very common for male hetero's to be attracted to young boys there. I'm not sure they call this practice homosexualism, however.

The best man from my wedding is over in Iraq. He says Iraqi man-on-man action is pretty common and pretty open. Apparently, there's some loophole in the Koran.

The elite Muslim clergy grab four wives, the best of the pick. This leaves the butch types up for grabs for the remaining 75 percent of the male population. It looks like Islam leave no choice but for most men to take the mean looking left overs or go gaaaaay.
