Mohammed taught that men go to heaven and women go to hell.
So that means that those 72 virgins are young boys.
Mohammad also said, when asked by his disciples how big is paradise, that there is room for 72,000 no more ... Must be SRO inside and, now outside, the endlessly long waiting line needs to become even longer.
‘Virgins’ is a mistranslation from the Old Syriac into archaic Arabic of the word for an extremely valuable commodity at the time: white raisins. Because nothing can be changed in the Arabic translated koran ‘virgin’ stands uncorrected ... must be quite a let down after the very long wait for a vacancy - not only are there no nubile hot houris, no girly men, no Helen Thomases, there are only a handful of white raisins ... such is Islam - a joke on itself.
