Iraq's actual media regulator on Tuesday mentioned all media and electronic diversion associations working in the Center Easterner state not to use the maxim "homosexuality" and well actually to say "sexual irregularity," an organization delegate said and a report from the regulator shows.

The Iraqi Correspondences and Media Commission (CMC) report said the use of the saying "direction" was similarly disallowed. It prohibited all phone and web associations approved by it from including the terms in any of their flexible applications.

The regulator "facilitates media affiliations … not to use the term 'homosexuality' and to use the right term 'sexual deviation,'" the Arabic-language clarification said.


An organization delegate said a discipline for dismissing the standard had not yet been set anyway could consolidate a fine.
