Hello hexbear community, lurker here. I'm a gay middle eastern man, who lives in a very conservative country in middle east. I been believing in rights of women and discrimination of jews, but i feel hypocritical. I dont know women aside from family members, i don't know any jewish person. I can't talk to women locally nor find a jewish person, im not sure how i can initiate such friendship.
it sounds to me similar to rich kids talking about how easy it is to live and find but they never worked a day in their life.
im struggling with making long term friendship with westerns in general. Its very hard, its everyone has their cliques and not interested in having online friendships, so i end up in same circles (gay furry arab server we made a while back).
Recommended to me by a Jewish comrade. I'm yet to watch it, but it's about gay Jewish people who miss/long for a proper connection with their religious community without supressing/neglecting their identity.
Is there any future timeline where you'd be able to leave your country? is that something that you'd consider if you had the opportunity?
I am conflicted, i learnt how to live in my country, how to stretch our currency in a market, how to talk to people here. But i would still like to meet with my family. My country doesn't allow applying for foriegn citizenship, only working in a different country is allowed. It feels like there is no country that will be my home espically as someone who wants to be a worker/expat, i have to be put against native workers there and i dont know if i can compete. I am pursuing Bachelors in computer science and planning on getting higher degree to make me more competitive.
