Since Islam also states that any physical or sexual contact between men and women prior to marriage is strictly forbidden, many young revert homosexual behaviour to fulfill their sexual urges. ... This provides a loophole for women to participate with out sanction in homosexual activities while, as stated above, the laws of Islam strictly prohibit men that liberty.
I decided to use the Conflict Perspective because it helped me to understand the struggle between the gay community in Egypt and the underlying rules of Muslim law. ... Gays are viewed as deviants, therefore causing a “widget” in the machine of Egyptian Muslim society to break and threaten a cascade effect, which could ultimately bring forth the degradation of the Egyptian Muslim society at large.
