Imams and Homosexuality: A Post-gay Debate in the Netherlands

Gert Hekma

University of Amsterdam ghekma{at}fmg.uva.nl

In a new departure for Sexualities, this article focuses on a topical issue. It describes a growing conflict between Muslims and gays in the Netherlands, which is currently being mirrored in many places throughout the world. Highlighting the denunciations of gays by the Rotterdam-based imam Khalil El Moumni in May 2001, the article examines how the issue appeared and the key elements of the debate it generated. Just how this debate fits into the wider contexts of modernity and postmodernity is also examined.

Key Words: emancipation • gays • imams • Muslims • the Netherlands

Sexualities, Vol. 5, No. 2, 237-248 (2002)
