Havingconnections is probably best/safest way. Otherwise maybe ask in subreddit of your country
Yes, local know-how from someone else on an English-language website might be the safest entry point. It’s still not foolproof, though.
Honestly, you don’t. You do whatever it takes to get out of there in the long term, and start looking for partners once you’re out.
Carefully, but I probably don’t have to tell you that.
I hear people just go ahead and use Grindr, but there’s been some stings on it in places like Saudi.
Thank you, I’ll look into it!
In case you don’t know, “stings” means the police getting on it to arrest people.
Yeah… I also read their wikipedia pages and they seem to sell a lot of sensitive info of their users. Not very trustworthy unfortunately.
Move to the capital city or the largest city. Find a few people online and meet more through them. Try to find social spaces where queer people gather. Doesn’t have to be queer-specific, leftist spaces are usually also safe.
knowing a queer kuwaiti, russian, chinese and mexican plus my own experience in the united states have taught me that there’s atleast a bi-model reality for queers everywhere.
anecdotally: the well connected; rich; and/or attractive queers usually don’t see much of a problem with living a queer-phobic country, citing that they can usually find a queer friendly community in their home country without much trouble.
also anecdotally: the other queers that don’t fit into the shapes i mentioned have a bad time in their home country and their existence in the western world isn’t much different than anyone else there.
Get out of that country.
