Meet Dr. Mariam Al-Sohel, a supposed “Kuwaiti New-Age Therapist and Human Development Advisor.” She has discovered therapeutic suppositories that’ll curb your excessive homosexual urges. That’s right!
While science still struggles to understand whether homosexuality is caused by genetics, social factors or just normal human desire, Al-Sohel knows what actually causes teh gay — and it ain’t genetics.
She explains: “The sexual urge develops when a person is sexually attacked and afterwards it persists, because there is an anal worm that feeds on semen.”
“Praise be to Allah,” the show’s host says.
How about we take this to the next level?

Related: New Pill Will “Cure” Homosexuality In 8 Sad, Delusional Months
Wait a sec… so being raped or molested somehow causes an anal worm to spontaneously grow in your butt? Intriguing! Please, continue doctor: “So what I did was to produce suppositories, which are to be used by certain people at a certain time, and it cures those urges by exterminating the worm that feeds on sperm.”
“By the way,” she reassures us, “this is all science, so there is nothing to be ashamed of.” Phew!
What’s in these magic pills, you ask? She doesn’t say. (Maybe it’s just 50 milligrams of ground-up heterosexuality.) But, as she explains while holding up two suppositories that look like dried chili peppers attached to yarn, “The ingredients are the same (for both sexes) but I made them in different colors so that [gay men don’t accidentally insert something intended for a woman’s butt].
It’s unclear if “butch lesbians” (as she calls them) also possess sperm-hungry butt worms since lesbians typically don’t want to be “bred.” But then again, what do we know? We aren’t “doctors.”
Al-Sohel explains that her new patients begin their treatment with a diet balanced between bitter, sour, salty and sweet foods to cleanse the body of poisons. Effeminate men are given “foods that increase masculinity and build muscle” including bitter foods and “any food that is buried underground.”
“Bitter foods increase masculinity,” she says — saltiness and sweetness reduce it. This makes sense considering the number of ultra-sweet and salty AF gay men we know.
Here’s a video of Al-Sohel explaining her “cure”:
It should surprise no one to learn that Al-Sohel is an an “anti-gay and anti-lesbian researcher,” according to the Jerusalem Post. But while she sounds absolutely bonkers, lots of ignorant people still believe that homosexuality is caused by sexual trauma early in life (even though that’s completely unfounded.)
Also, her “cure” isn’t so different from other methods that conservatives have used to convert homosexuals here in the West including coloring books, surrounding gay men with jars of urine, no longer listening to female pop artists, and having oral sex with your “doctor,”
In Kuwait, Iraq, homosexuality is punishable by jail time. So, many desperate gay and lesbian people living there might actually seek out Al-Sohel’s junk “cure” just to avoid being imprisoned or harmed.

They used to call it snake oil salesman but she’s something that’s much worse.
winemaker
Her last name, Al-Sohel, like ASSHOLE says it quite well. Who in their right mind is listening to this disgusting piece of mid east SHIT and her opinions of which are BS, pure and simple
DCguy
So Kuwait has scam artists too.
stranger2myself
She looks like a worm that feeds on burgers and gravy fries. Can you imagine that Kuwait is supposed to to be one of most progressive countries in Muslim world? Funny lady.
white-queer-african
She is surely lost a few marbles over the years! Lock her up in solitary confinement in a mental institution. Throw the key away and forget about her.
radiooutmike
Brings a whole new meaning to “buttmunch”!

Now….THAT’s funny!

Looney tunes.
IWantAFullBeard
Since when are Kuwaiti women permitted to read? Let alone become a doctor.
dwes09
Looks like you are almost as ignorant as she is.
Kuwaiti women outnumber men in the workforce, and they are considered the most emancipated in the middle east. They vote, they drive, they are media personalities, and in all professions. Homosexuality isn’t even specifically outlawed in Kuwait, though it can be prosecuted under their “debauchery” laws. Not all Muslims are Saudi, not all are backwards like this “doctor”.
Like her though, and like most American regressives, you obviously think your imagination is reality.
IWantAFullBeard
@dwes09 – Take a deep breath. I made a joke.
Hussain-TheCanadian
So I listened to the video couple of times, even her Arabic is devoid of any scientific terms; the moment they talked about “Prophetic Medicine” though I chuckled because that’s one of the most mocked topics among Muslims.
To get everyone up to speed, there are traditions ascribed to Prophet Muhammad that discuss “natural medicines”, so pretty much recommendations on “what to take” to cure a headache, stomach ache, morning sickness, hygiene, cleaning your teeth, cleaning your hair, eating healthy and so on, it lumped under a category known as “Sharia law recommendations” since none of these things are mentioned in the Qur’an.
Now among Muslim scholars, academics and philosophers, the majority reject wholesale the notion of “Prophetic Medicine” and pretty much give no credence to any tradition that has to do with them. Enter Saudi Arabia and those who revived this whole subject of “Divine medicine”, which now everyone can see, is frikkin hilarious.
roth99
I do not speak Arabic so I am indebted to you for your skill there. I think we feel it just nuts but she is very dangerous to the gay population of her nation. Gays will seek out her help rather than getting actual, not alternate, medical attention and facts. We here in the USA should not feel so smug either in light of the antivaccine proponents. And, we still have “cure the gay” treatment centers allowed in some states for our youth and others. Very depressing. How would one live in such a society? I guess deeply in the closet.
Hussain-TheCanadian
The reason why you see people like her, is because Kuwait allows gay men and women to be, it’s extremely rare that they get “punished” or “arrested”, so the conservatives other there hate the fact that the Kuwaiti royals tolerate gay people and allow them to be visible and open.
So now you get people like this “Doctor” who come on TV, unchallenged, to sell her fake homemade recipes as a “cure”, while many Muslim scholars are coming in terms with homosexuality being “incurable” – When I say Muslim Scholars, I mean high ranking clerics, not the idiotic preachers who appear on TV all the time spouting nonsense on a variety of topics that has nothing to do with reality.
winemaker
Another piece of anti gay muslim SHIT! Really who really listens to such drivel?
Hussain-TheCanadian
@ Winemaker
Shush it cretin, go peddle your prejudice somewhere else.
fur_hunter
Excuse me….Did she get her degree and training at Liberty University? Out of a Cracker Jacks Box? What a stupid C*NT! How dumb can you get? And people are buying this $H!T? IDIOTS!!!!
dwes09
Thanks for noticing that she has so much in common with evangelical Christians who also see their ignorance as wisdom.
draven
Ever hear the expression “looks about as dumb as they come”!
duecers
She should stick one in her ear to exterminate the worms she has that think they are brains, of which she has none!
FlufferNutter3000
Homosexuality is illegal in Kuwait. Punishable by imprisonment, but they don’t have the death penalty for it, unlike 11 other Muslim countries.
dwes09
Try reality rather than your imagination. Homosexuality is not illegal in Kuwait. It can be prosecuted under their general “debauchery” law, but apparently this is very rare.

Mariam Al-Sohel is to Islam and middle eastern countries as Jussie Smollett is to blacks and gays.

Bad analogy, try again.
jsteinbee
Are you kidding me frist off I was not rap or Molested Can she please explain why I’m gay a cure lol someone told me there a cure for cp
NCSilverBear
Like most “snake oil” pushers, she’s only in it for the money. But, it’s a sin — literally — to prey upon LGBT folk to get money. Still, she must be making money or she wouldn’t still be hawking her “cure”. I do wonder though, is she going to attempt to sell this junk to men who have sex with men in the Middle East? Of course most do not identify as “gay”. They just have sex. LOL
sydboy007
So why isn’t her religion relevant? She’s obviously Muslim. If this was some baptist preacher or televangelist their Christianity would don’t and centre as why they are bigoted and homophobic.
Mr-DJ
So, I am confused as to how 99% of Gay men, (who were NOT sexually attacked), got these “anal worms”. And what about the 50% of the Gay population that are Lesbians? How exactly do they get “anal worms” and why are the worms looking for semen in women’s anal canals? And who’s supposedly sexually attacking all these millions of babies – because most of us knew we were Gay since very young – before we even HAD sperm (and that’s just the boys). And that was also before we were considered sexual, because being Gay is initially about gender, not sex. All of this time I thought gender was “identity”, and sex was “expression”. Sooooo confused…!
truthseeker
Interesting. Queerty makes sure to use the adjective “Christian” when describing someone who says something about gays but doesn’t mention “Islamic” when describing this lady
Hussain-TheCanadian
The lady is not “Islamic”, shes a “muslim” – The Hijab, and “Allah be praised” was not a giveaway?
Bryguyf69
Hussain,
She ain’t no lady. 🙂 Regardless, thanks for your insights into Islam.
truthseeker
@Hussain
Nice way to deflect by muslims are followers of Islam. I merely pointed out that it’s strange that his article didn’t bring up her religious affiliation but if it were a Christian, that would be in the headline.
dwes09
It is very, very, very obvious from her hijab, from the references to Allah, and from other things that she is Muslim (nobody uses the term “islamic”).
An American, regardless of race can be any sort of faith so it must be mentioned.
I know regressives need to find ways to feed their paranoia, but really now…get a grip.
Hussain-TheCanadian
@ bryguyf69
You’re welcome.
@ Truthseeker
All I’m saying is that people are not referred to as “Islamic “, followers of Islam are called muslims, as you nicely said.
I thought her religious affiliation was clear, come on, its not a conspiracy 😉
Steven
What’s wrong with some people? Let’s assume for the sake of argument that there was such a thing as sperm eating worms that caused homosexuality. If the person wasn’t gay then how or why did a sperm eating butt worm get up there to do it’s thing if there wasn’t sperm up there in the first place? And I seriously doubt that lesbians have butt sperm.
SMH
Bryguyf69
Steven,
Maybe a dirty toilet seat? Heh
Itsonlythetruth
This lady is a complete moron.
ElPillo
Do tops also rake the butch lesbian pill? Since they don’t take sperm up their ass… and, do these worms ever starve with condoms?
Curtispsf
The scarf she’s wearing cover up her dreadlocks. Just imagine it.
little Alex
Apart from your mother, how many women do you actually know? ‘Cause this is so ignorant that I don’t even know where to begin.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
I’m a top, dammit!!! Now I’m NEVER gonna be cured!!!
TomG
LMAO ! Hopefully that “worm” isn’t too big !
screwtop
Don’t they have any lunatic asylums in her country?
When I was a kid, I suffered no trauma of any kind.
As soon as I was old enough to notice, I started following other boys with hair arms or legs around the playground.
By the time I was 10 I was “up and at ’em”.
By the time I was 25, my dick had travelled to 128 different nations, without ever once leaving my home country. Since that, I’ve lost count.
And the only “worms” I can see here, are the ones devouring her brain.
AgainNagain
What this ignorant woman believes is laughable but the person you portray yourself as is just nasty and disgusting. Do you have no shame? How unfortunate it must be for those unsuspecting men you had sexual encounters with? I bet you wouldn’t mind sleeping with Aaron Schock if you got the chance.
NateOcean
A portion of my brain died reading this article.

Too many Mosques not enough universities gives you this ind of nonsense.
batesmotel
Good lord. I can’t believe people like that are given a platform. There can’t be anyone that actually buys what she’s saying? Then again the country she’s in isn’t known for high intelligence.
TomG
For someone who claims she educated, she isn’t since she does NOT understand that people, like many mammals, are BORN GAY, they aren’t controverted or turned gay by some “worm”
irbaboon
Remid me again why I am not supposed to hate muslims?

BULL CRAP! I KNEW I WAS GAY AT TEN YEARS OLD WHEN I SAW MY FRIEND’S PENIS.
IWantAFullBeard
I knew I was gay when I was in the womb.

Being LGBT is a congenital condition. (developed before birth) Science is finding more evidence for it, every day.
