Iraq's official media regulator on Tuesday ordered all media and social media companies operating in the Arab state not to use the term "homosexuality" and instead to say "sexual deviance," a government spokesperson said and a document from the regulator shows.

The Iraqi Communications and Media Commission (CMC) document said that the use of the term "gender" was also banned. It prohibited all phone and internet companies licensed by it from using the terms in any of their mobile applications.

A government official later said that the decision still required final approval.

The regulator "directs media organisations ... not to use the term 'homosexuality' and to use the correct term 'sexual deviance'," the Arabic-language statement said.

A government spokesperson said a penalty for violating the rule had not yet been set but could include a fine.

Iraq does not explicitly criminalise gay sex but loosely defined morality clauses in its penal code have been used to target members of the LGBT community.

Major Iraqi parties have in the past two months stepped up criticism of LGBT rights, with rainbow flags frequently being burned in protests by Shi'ite Muslim factions opposed to recent Koran burnings in Sweden and Denmark.

More than 60 countries criminalise gay sex, while same-sex sexual acts are legal in more than 130 countries, according to Our World in Data.
 
So... This Islam thing... Is the goat fucking compulsory or is there a way to avoid it, because if it's optional...
 
Based. After having months here to celebrate the fags and trannies, my fag fatigue is right in line with my nigger fatigue.
 
you know if it wasn't for the goat fucking or the fact that islam's god is a raging pedophile that married a 6 year old to fuck her at 9, i just might convert to the religion.

with that being said, based.

They're both religious symbols at this point, so why the hell not? 🤷‍♂️

You dint have to become one to have them be a role model. Jewish morality bullshit about equality has always been at odds with based muslims, and an ally for Whites in the fight against it is always good.

What the hell does this mean?? Licensed? So only companies with government contracts or all operating within the country?
 
Holy shit they've been reading my posts!
Homosexuality is sexual deviance though, so it's accurate to use it.
Mmmmmmm I miss me some bourgeoise decadence too. Can we have that back
 
They should have specified "homosexual deviance": there are other kinds of sexual deviances, and specificity is important.
 
Always find it funny that in the U.S certain circles try to portray LGBQT+ a part of cultures around the world and the White Supremacy colonist suppressed it. While everywhere else sees it as a western white colonist and globalist trying to force it on them.

I wonder why Iraq is more pro-Russian now
