One hot spot to find gay men in Karachi is at the intersection of sharah-e-faisal and korangi road. Right outside the FTC. Someone once told me this and i didnt believe him. Until one day when i ran into a gaylord right at that very spot.

It was around 8 pm and was dark already. I was returning from a friend’s birthday party and was bussing my way home. I had to switch two buses and that gay spot was the point where i got off one bus and get on another.

While i was waiting for the bus i was approached by a sorta soft spoken man.

Man: Assalamoalaikum.
Sharjeel: W’salaam
Man: Kia aap akhter colony ki bus ka intezaar kar rahay hain?
Sharjeel: Ji haan.
Man: Acha, may bhee. Waisay mujhay Azhar kehtay hain. Baree khushee huee aap say mil kar.

At this point he extended his hand to shake hands to which i responded back by shaking hands with him. He kept shaking hands and continued talking.

Azhar: To aisa kartay hain bus may saath beth tay hain, kia khayal haiy?
Sharjeel: Ji?

I noticed that we were still shaking hands and not only that but he was slowly pulling my hand toward his little brother. At that moment i remembered the fair warning given by my friend previously, which i had ignored then, to watch out for this spot.

Now that all alarms went off, i pulled my hand back and ran like hell in the direction of my home. At this point any way to get out of that scene would suffice so i started flagging passerby motorists to gimme a ride. Luckily just then an old baba ji on his 50 cc scooter stopped and i hopped on. He got me as close to my place as possible without going out of his own way. I thanked him and walked the rest of the way home. And that was my brief encouter with the gay side of Pakistan.

you didn’t shake hands with his little brother ? how rude
