Socially segregated from women, Arab men succumb to homosexual behavior. But, interestingly enough, there is no word for "homosexual" in their culture in the modern Western sense. That is because having sex with boys, or with effeminate men, is seen as a social norm. Males serve as available substitutes for unavailable women. The male who does the penetrating, meanwhile, is not emasculated any more than if he had sex with a wife. The male who is penetrated is emasculated. The boy, however, is not, since it is rationalized that he is not yet a man.

In this culture, males sexually penetrating males becomes a manifestation of male power, conferring a status of hyper-masculinity. It is considered to have nothing to do with homosexuality. An unmarried man who has sex with boys is simply doing what men do. As the scholar Bruce Dunne has demonstrated, sex in Islamic societies is not about mutuality between partners, but about the adult male's achievement of pleasure through violent domination.

There is silence around this issue. It is the silence that legitimizes sexual violence against women, such as honor crimes and female circumcision. It is also the silence that forces victimized Arab boys into invisibility. Even though the society does not see their sexual exploitation as being humiliating, the psychological and emotional scars that result from their subordination, powerlessness and humiliation is a given. Traumatized by the violation of their dignity and manliness, they spend the rest of their lives trying to get it back.

The problem is that trying to recover from sexual abuse, and to recapture one’s own shattered masculinity, is quite an ordeal in a culture where women are hated and love is interpreted as hegemonic control.

With women out of touch – and out of sight -- until marriage, males experience pre-marital sex only in the confines of being with other males. Their sexual outlet mostly includes victimizing younger males – just the way they were victimized.

In all of these circumstances, the idea of love is removed from men's understanding of sexuality. Like the essence of Arab masculinity, it is reduced to hurting others by violence. A gigantic rupture develops between men and women, where no harmony, affection or equality is allowed to exist. In relationships between men, meanwhile, affection, solidarity and empathy are left out of the picture. They threaten the hyper-masculine order.

It is excruciating to imagine the sexual confusion, humiliation, and repression that evolve in the mindsets of males in this culture. But it is no surprise that many of these males find their only avenue for gratification in the act of humiliating the foreign "enemy," whose masculinity must be violated at all costs – as theirs once was.

Violating the masculinity of the enemy necessitates the dishing out of severe violence against him. In the recent terrorist strikes, therefore, violence against Americans served as a much-needed release of the terrorists’ bottled-up sexual rage. Moreover, it served as a desperate and pathological testament of the re-masculinization of their emasculated selves.

Thanks for the info. This also opens some exciting possibilities on how to wage war against the sandmaggots.

This is pretty sad stuff. Very prolific in Afghanistan.

More justification and enabling of heinous behavior by backward arabs. While I'm not debating the accuracy of the article you referenced, in fact I think it's probably very true, I am rejecting the backward mindset and culture that condones and enables such behavior.

Islam is a lie and a disease. It is a cult that thrives and lives only by repression and deception. Muslim cycle of violence will never end until they are forced to acknowlege how they contribute to their own problems and do something about it.

And the west is in no hurry to help them in that enlightenment, of course. (rolling eyes)

At our own peril.

Although most people condemn the Islamic view of women, it is actually much the same as the view of men. They are mere domesticated animals in the service of Allah, blameless of sexual aggression because it is impossible for them to know better. Thus the women are punished for "secuction" if they expose an ankle, but what does this say about the men? Helpless, rutting dogs, is what is says. Incapable of a platonic or respectful relationship with a woman.

And note the moral depravity of saying it's OK to do it with teens you can overpower, but when a mutual relationship between male adults develops, its grounds for execution. Sick. But ignored by my gay Bush-hating friend.

Those familiar with the works of Walker Percy know that human females are much different from all other large mammels. They are sexually receptive at all times instead of just periodically when fertile. Islam has made a huge mistake in equating humans to animals, enabling a culture of sexual deparavity.
