Fatwa: Women who swim in the sea commit adultery, should be punished
"When a woman goes swimming, as the word for sea is masculine, when "the water touches the woman's private parts, she becomes an 'adulteress' and should be punished." - Summary of a report titled "The misguided Fatwas of the Muslim Brotherhood and Salafis", as published in the Al Masry Al Youm.
A report by a committee set up by Al Azhar, one of the oldest and most prestigious Islamic universities in Cairo, to study the fatwas issued by the Muslim Brotherhood and Salafis reveals how Islamists view women.
The findings of the committee's report were published in the Egyptian newspaper Al Masry Al Youm. In all, the committee studied 51 fatwas issued by the Brotherhood and the Salafis during President Mohamed Morsi's tenure.
According to the report, "the fatwas issued by both groups (the Muslim Brotherhood and Salafis) regard women as strange creatures who are created solely for sex. They considered the voices of women, their looks and presence outside the walls of their homes an 'offence'. Some even went as far as to consider women as a whole offensive."
Another fatwa prohibited women from "eating certain vegetables or even touching cucumbers or bananas", due to their phallic imagery which could lead women down the wrong path.
Another fatwa directed women to "turn off the air conditioners at home in the absence of their husbands as this could indicate to a neighbour that the woman is at home alone and any of them could commit adultery with her".
Another fatwa orders that girls as young as 10-years-old be married "to prevent them from deviating from the right path".
Another prohibited girls from going to school more than 25km away from their homes.
A strange one said that a couple's marriage would be annulled if they copulate with no clothes on.
Interestingly, one fatwa which made headlines all over the world was issued by the Al Azhar university which called for women to "breastfeed male acquaintances thereby making them relatives and justifying their mixed company". The fatwa was, however, later retracted.
At the same time, some of these fatwas also sanctioned the use of women as human shields during violent demonstrations and protests.
The Gatestone Institute, in an earlier report, had said that some of the fatwas issued by the Brotherhood and Salafis during Morsi's tenure advocated the destruction of the pyramids and sphinx, the scrapping of the Camp David Accord, killing anyone who protested against ousted Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi, forbidding Muslims from greeting Christians, forbidding Muslim cab drivers from transporting Christian priests, forbidding TV shows that mock or make light of Islamists; and forbidding women from marrying any men involved with the former Mubarak government.

Muslims regard Arabic as the only legitimate language.
Don't tell that to the Indonesians, Iranians or Syrians.

As the late great W.C. Fields once observed about water:
“An abominable substance, my boy. Fish fornicate in it!”
Anyway, the inbred madness & pure evil of Islam never ceases to appall us “infidels”.
Bloody savages, the lot of them!

A normal, balanced individual cannot read their fatwas and still consider them to be sane people. They seem to be obsessed with sex and seek to find a sexual connection with every facet of life. The ocean, vegetables, plants--you name it. I remember a woman in my department years ago who was positively certifiable. Every lesson she taught somehow led around to sex--kinky sex--and her crowning achievement was to leave a photo of mating lions on our lab tech's desk. She thought since he was Nigerian, he'd appreciate the pic. The man managed to achieve an actual pinkish hue, he was so embarrassed by her offering. The woman also told anyone who would listen--including students--that aliens from outer space had kidnapped her and forced her to have sex with them. Other versions of this story include the aliens removing her ovaries, so that was why she never had children. I once entered a classroom she had just left, to find she had tied strings to every single table leg and chair leg, about 2" from the floor. I have no idea why, but it was very dangerous to trip over, so I removed them promptly.
She finally left the school permanently, in handcuffs, after throwing something heavy (a stapler?) at a student.
Doubtless one would find many of these Muzzies in a similar mental condition as this unfortunate woman.

Your post reminds me of Putin’s bemusement that gay rights are breaking out all over Russia - when it was the commies that pushed that whole agenda in the first place. Only stupid people think they can control the uncontrollable!

She had only to shout “I am a Muslim and a victim!!!” & the authorities would instantly be walking on eggshells.

Just as Martin Bashir has outed himself as a coprophiliac. His evil screech against Sarah Palin was a real look into his dark soul.
I imagine his secretary is washing her hands a lot more since his little outburst.

Another fatwa directed women to "turn off the air conditioners at home in the absence of their husbands as this could indicate to a neighbour that the woman is at home alone and any of them could commit adultery with her" Since no faithful "man" would ever want to stop perspiring and lose that wonderful camel-like scent ....

third declension neuter i-stem
http://www.johnspeedie.com/healy/saywhat.wav
Latin nouns are categorized into five declensions. It is pretty arbitrary, like the divisions in pro sports. The word for "sea", mare, is a member of the third declension. This helps us know which endings to use.
"Neuter" is one of the three genders assigned in Latin. Many adjectives agree with the gender of the noun. And even some nouns can be used with different genders depending on whether the assignee is male or female. For instance, the word alumnus is masculine, alumna is feminine. Outside of these usages however, the gender of the word does necessarily correspond to the sex of the object, it is just a handy device. As an example, the word for hand (or band of men), manus, is fourth declension feminine, regardless of whether it is a man's hand or woman's hand.
The term "i-stem" indicates a sub-category unique to the third declension. Third declension neuter i-stems are a rarity in Latin (just as masculine first declension words are), but mare happens to be one of them. Animal and calcar, which mean animal and spur, respectively, are two others.
Latin has a lot of fun sound expressions that are actually straightforward, such as the passive periphrastic, which is actually easy to translate into English.

Which begs the question of what exactly the men are doing into the water.

So what happens when the swimmer is a male? When the water reaches the ears of a Muslim male a hermit crab crawls in and occupies the vacant space.

Another good reason for this, ahem, religion, and its followers, to go back to where they came from!

Remind me
again about all the valuable contributions these people have made to our country?
I didn't think so...

For instance, the word alumnus is masculine, alumna is feminine. The Russians do that with surnames. For instance, Valentina Tereshkova is the daughter of Vladimir Tereshkov.
