Throughout much s history, the Ottoman Empire was tolerant of homosexual activy; while homosexualy was legally opposed the realy was one of tolerance, a society which ignored sexual ‘transgrsn’. [1] Not only was there tolerance but a wispread belief that homosexualy was natural, and therefore beneath the ncern of those that lived wh the Ottoman Empire. [3] Yet, by the latter half of the 20th century police Istanbul were enuragg attacks on homosexuals Istanbul, wh beatgs, hair-croppg, and rape.
[4] The qutn remas as to how and why attus towards homosexualy changed so dramatilly.
While the obv begng of such an vtigatn would lie wh the Qur’an and Islamic views on homosexual activy, this has already proved an aquate approach as is clear that the jure views were not the facto realy; stead, is the fluence of Wtern ias of morny which offers the most plsible explanatn of this reversal of attus. [5] By unrstandg how the ias were spread and adopted may be possible for them to be seen as a temporary viatn om the historic attus of the Middle East towards homosexualy, rather than acceptg vlence and persecutn as the norm.
