Um, …sad to say I’m pretty much past it these days, Mighty, but even in my prime and even when there were lashings of female thigh visible I never felt compelled to suddenly mount their legs as they sat on the sofa sipping tea and reading Vogue. Time and place for everything.
Brought up in a feminist household where female nudity was not uncommon I find your attitude towards both women and men interesting. Why would you even suggest that having sexual thoughts could be perceived as bad, by anyone of any faith?
Do you think that at the mere sight of a bit of cleavage most men irrespective of their faith become incapable of conducting themselves in a non threatening manner towards women or by default have a right to assert themselves sexually?
I guess the point I was getting at was everything you are telling me can be traced back to a blueprint developed by men for men. You say that it’s a male dominated world and rightly or wrongly women will always be judged differently to the male but who is doing the judging, Mighty, and with what authority do they judge? Just because men can knock women out cold (and lets face it, that’s the only reason men run the world) it doesn’t mean they have to.
That many Muslim women can only feel liberated when under cover only serves to highlight how incapable many Muslim men appear to be at seeing women as individuals and equals.
And, no, if I had a friend male or female who was banging more often than a dunny door on a saturday night I’m not thinking I wish it were me, I’m thinking Hep C, herpies, warts and making mental notes to never share the same glass with him/her. No thanks!
Eat em alive, Tiges!
