Those Goat-Diapers
The Daily Dish ^ | August 13, 2006 | Andrew Sullivan

Posted on 08/13/2006 3:09:02 PM PDT by Torie

It's hard to get them out of my head. Here's the story if you missed it: Iraqi Islamists are threatening shepherds with violence if they don't clothe their goats with diapers to avoid tempting lonely shepherds. Another facet of the "new Middle East." Yes, it's funny. But it's also revealing about the way fundamentalism and sex interact. What most male-run religious fundamentalisms include is a major exception for the hetero-male sex drive. Sex outside of missionary-position reproduction with legal wife/wives is officially verboten; but when frail male flesh gives in, the blame is almost always the object of desire - not the guy actually responsible. Hence: it's the goat's fault. The way they were dressed, they were asking for it.

The shepherds should take the advice, to prevent depredations against their goats from the Islamic extremists.

And then he goes on to rant about hetero men getting away with all sorts of mischief, bashing Catholics, etc. This IS Fagrew Sullivan, after all.

I think there was a song or a limerick about a guy keeping a bunch of goats in his tent.

He was asked if the smell was any kind of problem.

"No. I don't think so. They don't seem to mind it at all."

I'm fairly untempted by goats generally, so I may be missing something fundamental here, but I don't really see how the addition of the nappy is going to be such a passion killer for said lonely horny shepherd!

You can't prove it to my basset hound Elmer who always seemed nervous whenever our neighbor Rahib stops by for a visit.

Here is the source. The original source is an NPR audio piece. Yes, I was somewhat skeptical too. It has some more weird stuff, including "naughty veggies." No, I am not making this up.

I posted this before he did.

I think he surfs FR looking for material.

As for his argument, what about homosexual rape, or NAMBLA?

He looks for any specious excuse he can to attack Christianity, when it is only Christianity which has kept his sorry ass (har!) alive.

He should reconsider what Islam does to queers as opposed to what happens in Christian countries.

Cheers!

A "naughty veggies" paragraph needs to be added to your opus.
