Rainbow Arabs. I got into an argument on an email list which led me to look up what's actually going on with gays in the Arab world. The Gay and Lesbian Arab Society (GLAS) has a blog. KELMA (Arabic for " free speech" ), is the first French Gay and Lesbian Arab Association. "They fix as their objective to "federate the cultural and social activities of gay and lesbian franco-arabs." Bint el Nas ("Daughter of the People") is a site for Arab lesbians. Gay Egypt, Gay Morocco, LEGAL (Lebanon), and HOMAN (Iran) report on news in their respective countries.
