FROM DIYARBAKIR WH LOVE: KURDISH, GAY AND PROUD

HOW TO SAY GAY KURDISH (KURMANJI)
My father almost killed me when he found out that I was gay/transsexual, I had to flee Kurdistan and go to live Tehran. Near Hotel Aziz there is rather dark and dirty alleyway which leads to an upstairs bar, a “Kurdish gay and lbian bar”. As soon as you walk , almost everyone seems to be checkg you out, perhaps to see if you are gay/lbian.
At this pot she lowers her voice and says, or maybe hangs me to ath jt like last year when they hanged two Fars (Persian) gays.
