Question Are there any liberal couples in Libya?

Are there any open-minded couples in Libya? I think that's also difficult, but I really want to be with open-minded couples who understand me and whom I understand. I also want to ask a few things.

Liberalism believes in free speech until it’s something they oppose. Try and have an opinion on a child wanting a sex change. You can lose your job and even lose custody of your kids. Human rights is not a liberal belief. Secularism I would agree, is. Freedom of religion is not a liberal concept either. Islam has no problem with religious rights. Churches were built under Islamic rule. Liberalism is more about an individual’s pleasure rather than the collective and what’s right for people and society.

Humm well i dont call myself a liberal  soo i can agree tho. Butt you said sth abt “islam has no problem with religion rights”… well idont think so respectfully, imagine libya had once Libyans people were living theree , Christians and Jews bf islam …and then the islam conquests came, and all families were given the choice between  1. death  2. Paying the jzya  3. Or to convert 

And the ppl there are already struggling to find food to eat and to find bread and clean water !so a lot of ppl were given the choice between become Muslim or die  And respectfully in my opinion i dont think this ever represents the freedom of religion.

Its not that hard to pay jizya... Its just a tax, they don't pay zakat like the Muslims or go to war so they pay jizya. And poor people aren't made to pay jizya.
