This intersectionalism can have unintended consequences. For example, in the [[United Kingdom]], there have been attempts to form an intersectional alliance between [[homosexual]]s and [[Muslim]]s as both being oppressed minorities. This is despite most British Muslims opposing homosexuality and its legalization.<ref>Perraudin, F. (11 april 2016). [https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/apr/11/british-muslims-strong-sense-of-belonging-poll-homosexuality-sharia-law "Half of all British Muslims think homosexuality should be illegal, poll finds"]. ''The Guardian''.</ref> This can be used to attack the dominant culture.
Gay Arabs Against Christ was an intersectional early 2000s grouping of "queer and non-conforming" [[Arab]]s who intended to fuse [[Islamic]] and [[Christianophobia|Christianophobic]] thought with [[Homosexual rights advocacy|homosexual advocacy]] and [[Sodomy apologist|sodomic apologism]] in the Middle East, in particular relating to the issue of cross-dressing and [[gender confusion]].<ref>Puar, Jasbir K.
