"Beirut, February 4, 2016 — I never realized we had transsexuals in Lebanon. Or rather, every country has its trasnssexuals and transgenders, but I didn't realize they would go public here. When I did, it was a bit of a shock. We are still in the Middle East after all.

Beirut might be a very open city, it's often called the gay capital of the Middle East, but still, we're in a very conservative and religious environment, on all sides."

Interesting article but he fails to mention Tel Aviv is the gay capital of the Middle East. In Israel gays and transgenders have full rights.

But yes, it's quite amazing what's going on Beiruth.
