Question: Several fairly reputable sources have stated that their are allegations about the sexual orientation of the nation's leader, often used to attempt to discredit him. Why is this not mentioned? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.123.38.190 (talk) 19:37, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is notable that many Emirati scholars openly declare that the Sultan of Oman, Qaboos bin Said al Said, refuses to get married and have a child to carry the throne because he is gay. One such source which comes to mind is Richard Bulliet, Professor of History at Columbia University, who has stated both in lectures found on iTunes (History of the Modern Middle East) and via YouTube that the Sultan is gay. It's at least something to mention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.197.91.136 (talk) 02:31, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Agree plz mention it even the same rumors about the crown Prince of Dubai and his deceased older brother Nlivataye (talk) 13:21, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edits of 30 August 2024

[edit]

I suggest all the edits of 30 August 2024 should be deleted, as explained below:

  • Homosexuality ... "can be punished with a prison sentence of up to three years" changed to "[is] punishable by up to three years of imprisonment in the country."
    • no meaningful difference
  • add {{cn|date=August 2024}}
    • redundant, already addressed by {{unreferenced|section|date=August 2021}}
  • "This law is applicable to both men and women" changed to "The law is applicable to both men and women".
    • no meaningful difference
  • "it has been suggested..." changed to "it was suggested"
    • no meaningful difference

I have therefore reverted these edits. Fabrickator (talk) 07:12, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
