Reports (2)
  • Status is not correct "Age of consent does not exist. Dubai considers all sexual acts between same sex persons to be sodomy which receives a lesser punishment than consensual homosexual acts which can include the death penalty. "
  • Status is not correct "Homosexuality is illegal therefore no equal age of consent"
