Controversy about Qatar hosting football's World Cup has mostly focused on LGBT rights in the country and around same-sex relationships being criminalised. Transgender Qataris can be detained for "violating public morality", which requires no trial or official charge. BBC News has spoken to two trans Qataris about their lives.
"I am very afraid, but I just want people to know that we do exist," Shahd says about her decision to speak out about life as a transgender woman. Like the other person in this article, we have changed Shahd's name to protect her.
We have been messaging her over an encrypted app for her safety, and she travels away from her home to video call us in secret from a darkened room. Shahd shows us her hair which she was forced to cut into a masculine style, but does not reveal by whom.

[Transgender Woman]
No such thing exists on Earth.
It seems like the smartest thing for Qatari men who think they are women to do is stay home and be quiet about it rather than talking to the BBC. Relocating from Qatar might also be a good choice.
Isn't that what women in Qatar do anyway? If anything, aren't countries where women are completely covered up better for transgender women? How can you tell who is under the garments? Maybe by height, but that is not definitive.
Not our problem. They demand to have that “choice” let them/they/it or whatever pronoun they chose, to suffer the consequences. However, the judgement now cannot even begin to compare to the Eternal consequences.
These people are creating their own problems.
I do not care and my sympathy for ALL self-inflicted victims is below zero.
World Cup has mostly focused on LGBT rights
This is being driven by the radical democrats in the US. Divide and conquer is their only game. It’s sick.
Latest children’s book by Dr. Seuss book “If You Were Born With a Dick, You’re Not a Chick”.
I hate to agree with Muslims.
Why is it “controversial” for the people of Qatar to live as they wish?
Guess there weren’t many Jews to interview in Qatar.
The Democrats and Hollywood are exporting this stuff all over the world.
I do NOT believe the U.S.A., as a country, is the Harlot of Babylon.
But they are certainly making it look like it and act like it.
Excellent point. If a trans- is really the sex he/she claims to be, nobody would ever notice anything different from anyone else, right?
it’s a BBC obsession.
headline should read “says transgender man”.
So sick of these pervs.
“I am very afraid...”
As well as you should be.
You are an abhorrent aberration within your own culture and society.
