Ghost of a flea

"The gay activist establishment has taught gay men that Christian fundamentalists are their enemies, while members of fellow ‘oppressed' groups, including Muslims, are their allies in victimhood," says Bruce Bawer, an Oslo-based gay American writer and author of While Europe Slept (Broadway, 2007). "Solidarity proscribes criticism. Never mind that these ‘allies' preach that gays should be executed. Under the reigning PC mentality, the only way in which most gays can bring themselves to criticise Islam is to do so as part of a blanket rejection of all religion."

Bawer fears that on an everyday level, the situation for gay men in cities like Oslo and Amsterdam is becoming more difficult, with an increase in attacks by Muslim youths. In Oslo, reports of assaults on gays by Muslims are increasing, and instead of admitting to this as a problem, prominent Muslims are arguing that in "their" neighbourhoods, Muslim cultural values should reign, meaning that gays who enter their territory should not, for example, hold hands. In one recent incident, a gay couple exchanged a kiss in an Oslo kebab joint and were chased down the street by a fellow-customer. Later, one of them told a reporter: "It was perhaps a little dumb of us to do that. I don't like to provoke people." Bawer notes: "This is the reigning mentality. Gays have learned to blame themselves for having ‘provoked' people who want to beat them up for being gay."
