Sexpert to the Arab world Dr. Heba Kotb discusses female pleasure, halal sex and curing homosexuality.
  • "A very liberal and progressive religion"

    Islam is a very liberal and progressive religion....God orders that sex remains precious, like a pearl -- it's not just for everyone... I'm not very sympathetic with young women and girls choosing to masturbate. They're ruining their sexual future... I'm totally against homosexuality being considered a gene or natural. It's a sin -- they're just like the alcoholics and the drug-takers...In Islam, everything between a husband and wife is allowed sexually, except for two things: anal intercourse and intercourse during menstruation... this is a closed subject -- this is haram.

    Oh, yes, very liberal and progressive. I hear they're even using smaller rocks for stonings these days!

    In fact, there is no 'liberal and progressive' religion. They all revolve around oppression and humiliation to control their followers
