But they are so happy about gay tourism that they arrest nearly 70 men for being gay and having sex with other men? That was in August. So lets lie to a government that will put us in prison just for that...boy the charges are racking up, and I didn't even go there yet.

No, you don't necessarily have to hide who you are. In fact, I hear they're more tolerable of homosexuality in tourists because they need the tourism money. My point is, it's not a matter of repressing who you are as a person. It's about lying to Egyptian officials where applicable. :)
