DUBAI: GAY TRAVEL ADVICE (OM A LOL)

At the time, I was pretty worried about beg whether I’d be safe as a gay tourist Dubai.

Knowg the Middle East is generally nservative, gay travelers might not feel pletely fortable wh the ia of visg Dubai. Many ponr safety preutns like letg their gay apps or removg personal tails om social media. Police are not patrollg the streets lookg for pairs of gay men, but bears to mentn that the law remas archaic disallowg any gay rights.

DUBAI FOR GAY UPLE - LGBTQIA+ TRAVEL FOM

Both of the hotels are certa to adhere to ternatnal standards, so I’d classify them as some of Dubai’s gay-iendly hotels. While you should be credibly skeptil when browsg misleadg lists of Dubai gay bars, you n still have a fantastic time enjoyg the cy’s nightlife.

Gay men and transexual dividuals have been taed and prosecuted Dubai before over seemgly harmls gtur. Dubai’s thori will certaly not tolerate gay public displays of affectn, so remember that would be dangero to hold your partner’s hand while walkg down the street. But if you’ve ever met a male flight attendant that works for Emirat, they’ll tell you about all the Dubai gay lols livg this glzy metropolis.

How are the “pulsg gay nightclubs” existence while a uple of gay tourists face arrt for holdg hands? You’ll need to e a VPN nnectn to accs gay datg apps the UAE though, sce the ernment blocks them. If you do ci to meet someone on a gay applitn, make sure you’ve pletely vetted them.

As every untry, there are plenty of gay people Dubai, is more a qutn of how openly you n be gay Dubai.

DOUBLE OR TW BEDS FOR GAY MALE UPLE? - DUBAI FOM

There are no LGBT (Lbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgenr) rights any of the Uned Arab Emirat.

Knowledgeable expats Dubai remend that Gay upl should not even risk old hands public.

CAN A GAY COUPLE SHARE A ROOM DUBAI?

This means that the more ual punishments for beg gay – beatgs, prolonged imprisonment, flogggs, torture, and chemil stratn – would be nsired to be gettg off lightly. Back 2013 they discsed troducg some form of ttg to prevent gay foreigners om enterg any of those untri. They only dropped the proposal bee they feared a ntroversy that might rail the 2022 FIFA World Cup , no: not a gay-iendly regn.

There are no gay bars Dubai, but you n rt assured that there is a high gay-quotient every trendy bar. Gay marriage is not regnized Dubai, no matter how married you may be your home untry. We haven’t yet travelled to Dubai as a gay uple, partly bee we are apprehensive to….

GAY UPLE DUBAI - DUBAI FOM

Sn: And what about beg gay Dubai when you were younger, was this ever talked about? You did not see any gay reprentatn at all and was not talked about – you were put to the tegory of beg straight no matter what. Is there a huge difference between beg a gay expat Dubai vs a tourist vs a gay lol Dubai (someone whose fay has lived there for many generatns).

Homosexualy is unfortunately still not legal across the entire Uned Arab Emirat (UAE) and there are ser nsequenc if ught. Specifilly, Dubai homosexualy is punishable by prison/or a fe and then subsequently you will be ported.

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN FOUR GAY GUYS FROM TEL AVIV TOOK A VATN TO DUBAI

For the majory of the time, lol attus towards gay lol expats livg Dubai and gay tourists are the same. However, lookg at a gay expat vs someone who has lived there for generatns you will see a massive difference. For a lol whose fay has lived Dubai for generatns, beg gay has to be hidn and has to be secret, pecially strict Mlim fai: beg gay is totally forbidn.

Liam: There are plac that are sentially ‘gay bars’ Dubai (and I e the term ‘gay bars’ very loosely), however the are not labelled as such.

The maly e about when someone who owns the ‘gay bar’ holds fluence wh the lol thori and so n operate this (discreet) way. The will not e up as legally, officially or outwardly facg as gay bars, clubs or events (bee fundamentally they are not) but they are popular wh the LGBTQ+ crowd. Sn: Could you talk a b about any posive or negative experienc you have had Dubai as a gay man?

GAY DUBAI

Sn: what advice you’d give gay travellers thkg about Dubai – to go or not to go and why. Liam: I would avoid all public displays of behavur (this is forbidn straight, gay, lbian – UAE IS A MUSLIM COUNTRY) so ’s not a le jt for LGBTQ people.

Dpe beg nservative by Wtern standards, this is where alhol and sex-starved Arabs flock to drov to get their fix — and that clus the gays. At my publishg pany, I’m told no uncerta terms to avoid g gay referenc wh stori which — when wrg celebry, pop culture and fashn — was particularly difficult. On the surface ndns for gay Dubaiians might seem bleak, but thanks to some quickly acquired gay iends I learn quickly that, spe the legali, a vibrant gay scene flourish.
