A lot of the abuse was about how they wanted to have sex with him and then kill him. Sexuality is so different in the Middle/Near East. Anyway, the phone lines between Cyprus and Turkey are not connected up so it was sometimes tough to communicate.

Bizarre that they would do what they apparently reject (penetration of a man by a man) to him. It shows how people use sexualised acts as a weapon to humiliate. I am shocked and heartbroken for your brother

The act of penetrating anything/anyone is seen as inherently masculine.

To me it is not bizarre but it is obviously upsetting. Outside the West masculinity has other, often equally or more toxic, forms.

This rejection BTW of the Western concept of what it means to be gay, by people outside the West, is why they come up with these convoluted phrases: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men_who_have_sex_with_men …

In Cyprus for example, gay men are seen as women by the worst sexists/homophobes.
