They would be better off rejecting him due to his known tendency for getting in fights.
Then again, in Afghanistan, who isn’t gay?

So to get ass-ylum in Austria now you have to act gay? Or cross dress?
Sounds like the makings of a new hit show for the “Queer Eye” team.
Well, at least they didn’t ask him to prove it. It’s something.
Well, there’s the authoritative word from the experts on that topic.
