I once went through many historical books looking for the topic of homosexuality. I could not find anything solid but I did find a couple of passages where it stated that men did not have sex with women unless they wanted to have children. Remember that there was no birth control back in those days. It is interesting to find that the concepts held today are put into the literature of yesteryear. That is one reason to go to libraries and look for the really old books, of go to an online project where old books are kept for people to view and read. History is different than we are taught.
I was not aware of this history. Thank you for posting!!!
Thanks for this. Very informative. Makes me want to learn more.
Yes it’s actually true originally all forms of sexual activity was at least tolerable and some still are like child brides and boy kissing in Afghanistan.
But when the British arrived in the Middle East they’re influence was definitely felt especially once they installed the Saud family as the rulers of Arabia and with it Wahhabism which is as Islamic as a ham sandwich.
The intent was to create a completely loyal and subservient culture around Islam and with certain behaviors such as sexual relations other than between a husband and wives ? as well as little to no self expression. Which is why Saudi Arabia has been hell bent on eliminating the leadership of countries that allow an open environment for Muslims.
