Dpe this long history of homosexualy Iran, many of the untry’s current homosexuals, particularly the younger generatn, tend to intify more wh a morn perspective rather than a historil or even cultural one (Mahdavi 2012; Yagarfard and Bahramabadian 2014).

While a major factor this issue is how the Iranian thori’ policy and law have created an environment of social isolatn, is further pound by profsnal practners and psychologists Iran and their attempts at ‘treatg’ the sexual ‘viancy’ of homosexuals and lbians (see Am 2015). Then through snowball samplg 57 gay men were ntacted through email and only 38 people replied to the ial email, then rm nsent were sent to 38 prospective participants that of them only 29 showed tert to participate the study, the rt dropped out due to the sensivy of the subject, fear of discloser, fear of alg wh strs durg the terview, not knowg the terviewer and lack of tst and not feelg fortable to do the terview trough vio ll.

There is a school of thought which suggts that the practice of engagg risky sexual behavur serv as a symbolic act of rebelln by gay mal, albe one that may be rried out subnscly or even jt as part of the accepted gay culture (Crossley 2004).

Psychologilly, the act of engagg risky sexual practic may provi some members of the gay muny wh a fulfillg sense of prottg and rebellg agast the domant social valu which they feel opprs their eedom and pennce (Crossley 2004) addn, two participants mentned that they even stood the street, pecially the eveng and at nights, to get picked up by rs. There are many reports of gay dividuals standg the well-known “pick-up pots” who have been beaten to ath by strangers or even by the moraly police or the Basij (UK Home Office 2016) most mon risk takg act intified was “gatherg public and unrground get-togethers or parti”. In spe of the legal and health-related risks associated wh alhol and dg e Iran, gay men are still misg the substanc as part of their pg mechanism for alg wh the strs and anxiety ed by their social isolatn, discrimatn and systematic has been observed that many members of the gay populatn e alhol and dgs to overe the pa of rejectn, isolatn, and discrimatn (e.

In this study, was observed by the rearcher that the reason for the succs of the treatment was largely due to the patients’ sire to change bee of their unrstandg that homosexualy or transgenrism was unacceptable Iranian culture. In such an environment of persecutn and neglect, many non-state actors rry out acts of homophobic vlence wh impuny (UK Home Office 2016) of the three who had married mentned that, even though they were married, they had relatnships wh other men secret.

The ma reasons for g social media acrdg to the participants were nnectg to other gay dividuals, feelg that they were a safe place, makg nversatn about homosexualy Iran and LGBTQ rights, sex and fdg a sex partner, lookg for a more ser relatnship, chattg wh others which helped them regardg their isolatn and lonels, and also accsg rmatn (see also Karimi 2016). There is no doubt that gay dividuals Iran experience ‘mory strs’, fed as a state rultg om “…culturally sanctned, tegorilly ascribed ferr stat, social prejudice and discrimatn, the impact of the environmental forc on psychologil well-beg, and nsequent readjtment or adaptatn” (Brooks 1981, p.

In addn, participant 4, who was 41 years old, a relatnship, and self-employed, mentned that he was om a workg-class fay livg the south of Tehran and that the suatn for gay men there was more difficult than for people the north of Tehran, as people the south were more tradnal and nservative than people om the north. The creased probabily of openly admtg to beg gay, the length of time between mencg same-sex relatnships and g out to others, and the high probabily of havg sexual relatns wh women spe a lack of sire to do so are all ditive that the standards of masculy related to social class have a ntrollg effect on the social liv of workg-class gay men (Barrett and Pollack 2005).

Dpe the suggtns, is the opn of the rearcher that a purely thematic approach nstut the most appropriate method of analysis the prent study on the reasong that the gay muny Iran is a small and vulnerable group and, therefore, the person-centred approach uld promise the participants’ anonymy. Moreover, as the qualative rearch is highly subjective and the rearcher’s personaly and experience might affect the validy and reliabily of the rearch (Crwell 2014), is important to mentn that the rearcher is fully aware of his own possible bias and prenceptns due to his few years of practice as a psychologil therapist wh LGBT dividuals and LGBT anisatns as well as his prev rearch experience this field, pecially among gay men and male-to-female transgenr dividuals. ConclnThroughout the 40 years (1979–2019) of opprsn unr Iran’s Islamic law, durg which social l and laws have been signed to prevent gay mal livg Iran om beg open about their sexualy, many gay mal livg Iran have actively sought to overe the rtrictns on their eedom.

It is hardly surprisg such an opprsive and secretive environment of stutnalised discrimatn that the members of Iran’s unrground gay muny experience emotns of fear, anger, rejectn, and tratn, leadg them to velop a variety of pg strategi. Origally veloped as survival techniqu, the pg strategi have bee, over time, part of what we know today as “gay culture” and seems that one of s more effective benefs has been providg the ordatn and anisatn that enable s members to mata a sense of orr their liv as they navigate om one social suatn to the next, mimisg anxiety as a rult.
