How can Malaysia, an islamic country, be so progressive to have the first gay astronaut ?
July 2, 2009 - Posted in malaysia vacation packages
<< What is the budget way to connect to internet in Malaysia? Where can I enroll for Jelly and candy making course in Malaysia or Singapore + the cost? >>My gay friends in Malaysia have told me that Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor, malaysia’s first astronaut is gay and has settled down with another guy as his partner.
you claim he is gay because you are one?

Your comments about Sheik Muszaphur Shakur must cause dismay among the gay community.
What happened to equality? The guy is an astronaut…that’s what he is and that’s what he should be known as, surely. Not as a ‘gay’ astronaut, just an astronaut.
No-one described Buzz Aldrin, or any of the other ‘first men on the moon’ as heterosexual astronuats, did they? They were just astronauts.
Please allow Muszaphur the dignity and respect his training deserves. His sexuality is really of no concern of ours, nor does it affect his skill, training and fitness for his chosen profession. Please allow him that respect.
He is not a ‘gay’ astronaut…he is an astronaut (who just happens to be gay)
Sorry to jump at you, but this seems to go against all accepted views on our acceptnce and recognition of all peoples (of whatever sexual persuasion)
Live and let live, please.
Cheers,
BobSpain

Why can’t Malaysia, an Islamic country, be so progressive to have the first space tourist? WHY NOT??
So what if Dr. Sheikh is gay?? SO WHAT??
What concern is it of anybody, including you and your gay friends?
TO EACH HIS OWN.
Live your own life too.

Well then, that will also make him the first gay astronaut in space? Not bad…
Anyway, nothing to offend the gays, but don’t you think that its time to put the gayness of the first so-called astronaut (I don’t care how many recognitions he received, he’s still another space tourist to me) to rest?

1. the fact that someone is gay doesnt make him less a human, or professional
2. a corollary to (1) is that – calling another person as gay, is not an insult. i have no problem with being called heterosexual, homosexuals would not see being described as gay an insult.
if you agree to my propositions, then i would say kudos, you asked a very brilliant question. most people dont get it.
if he was truly gay and the government knew about it, lets just say this is only one how double standard is practised by the malaysian government.
so, really, is your question – the government or the gayness?

Another baseless allegation … this is a good example of JEALOUSY ….
Prove it man … otherwise i assume your intention is to defame and undermine his reputation … what a loser.

A person’s sexuality doesn’t determine if that person was qualified to go to spac or not. Your question is out of context because
(i) you link a gay person to an astronaut
(ii) you link progressiveness to gay

However your allegation that this "space tourist" is not totally baseless. He is handsome and yet not married and he partners an effiminate celebrity chef to run a restaurant business. That’s why the allegation come about.

Gay or not gay, at least he was chosen to go to space and made history and how about you and your gay friends? Made any headlines yet?

Like always, Malaysia want to be the first.. the highest twin towers, the longest flag during merdeka, the first, the first and the first… so, no wonder they focus on the first and not the Islam itself..

This question sounds really shallow, I am sorry to say that. Whether someone is gay or not is his business… and nothing to do with anybody.

Not sure if he is a gay .But the present malaysian islamic "hadhari" government is full with surprises.
Our current prime minister is a compulsive liar,his son lied about supplying nuclear parts to another islamic coutry,his son in law thinks and behaves as he is the prime minister,Malaysian deputy prime minister is a suspected murderer of a Mongolian lady, we have a de facto law minister who does not understand law ,a works minister who blames god for every disaster, bias top judges, creative economic reports, non malay ministers who dares not go against any malay ministers, 90% of malaysian cops on the take and hey , if malaysia can have a lesbian as sports minister why cant Malaysia as an islamic Hadhari country cant have a gay cosmonaut?..
But , i am not implying anything about him though he acts and behaves like a sissy.
But i can say that Malaysian islamic hadhari really s crewed up.
Last comment: that fella is NOT an astronaut nor a cosmonaut.he is just a space flight participant, and the money was paid without the knowledge of malaysian tax payers.
That is so Islamic , so wonderful!
