Forums - Politics Discussion - Saudi Arabia in talks with SE for 8 months to get LGBT content censored

It's very possible it's due to LGBT content but couldn't it also be due to something else like alcohol usage? Would still be dumb either way though.

Tradition is peer pressure from dead people.

I don't think they would be so bothered by alcohol and certainly SE would accommodate to have perhaps the translation of the alcohol drinks to be juice or whatever.

Probably. A country like that is restrictive towards a lot of things so I think it's best to not assume the reason. It'll be known what exactly it is by late June though.

I guess the SA person complaining about gay people on western culture/media is a clear giveaway for me =p

He must be like someone (don't remember the name now) in Brazil that said the surge in number of gay people in the country was the fault of those "very hot and handsome guys" or something close to that =p

Where did you see that? It's more of a surge of bi people that is happening so those very hot and handsome guys must be awakening things in people over there.

Someone posted in this very thread about the SA person.

Sure could be bi people =]

Looks like the impressions from the demo are super positive, Saudis will end up buying a game through the American or a European PSN store instead of the Saudi one, no physical release there either. Channel all that money somewhere outside the country, why not, in fact, go ahead and block all games



The only problem is certain states don't like the idea of mutilating young kids. Another thing why is it so important that young children need to know how some peope enjoy sex? Its like their training children

What on earth are you talking about?

I'm going to hope that you're not relating these things to LGBT groups, because both claims are nonsense.

Children are not learning about sex. Some people are just wanting children to be aware that some people have two dads or two moms, and that's okay and not something to be ashamed of.

And trans kids are not being mutilated, if that's your implication here.
