Showing My Pride!

My closet is a complete mess!
It looks like the aftermath of a hurricane.
Like any sane person, I’m no storm-chaser.
I’m fleeing the disaster area.

Consequently, I’m coming out of the closet!

I’m Gay! There…I said it!!




Well…
That would be the scenario if Dr. Nawal Elsaadawi was right!

To the world, Dr. Nawal is an Egyptian “feminist writer and activist”.
To me, she is a complete nutcase who gets wackier every living day.

I saw her in a TV interview recently.

She was talking about sexual oppression in the Arab world.
She basically said that students in an All-Girls/Boys schools who happen to love a specific teacher of their same sex, are all homosexuals. Because homosexuality is unacceptable and frowned on in the Arab countries, these students are demoralized and crushed.
The Doc wants the society to encourage these students to show their feelings and embrace their orientation.
By her definition, most Arabs are gays and lesbians!
Whoooopeeeeee!

I went to an All-Girls elementary school. I loved not one but TWO female teachers.
I’m surly a lesbian then!


URGH!


The aged Doc seems to have forgotten what it is like to be a child.
She has forgotten innocence and purity. She has forgotten how to admire an idol, cherish an epitome and love a mentor. To love a teacher doesn’t mean the child desires or is fixated on the teacher. Children love their teachers simply because they look up to them.

Teachers are role models.
Except for some, like the Doc herself, who can never inspire kids to be like them!




Yes I’m Gay….Gay as in Happy and Buoyant!
