Gay people in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have attacked a YouTube video 'tutorial' which shows how gays can be 'cured' or 'scrubbed clean' of their sexuality.

Once in the villa's living room, the effeminate man is told that he needs to change his personality. One of the traditional-dressed men asks: 'will you change it or not?' He replies 'yes but now?' And is told 'leave it to us'.
They proceed to show the effeminate guy how to mimic masculine gestures. Later he is given a 'make-over' where his hands and face are almost violently scrubbed with scouring cloths, and then his nails and hair are cut.
