I have heard that an unmarried man having sex with boys is 'just doing what men do'. Males serve as substitutes for unavailable women.
Anyone care to discuss?
Here's what seems a well-conducted research poll into British Muslim attitudes, published last month

http://reddit.independent.co.uk/tool...er?id=t3_8itck
Not a single British Muslim said homosexuality was morally acceptable, compared to 58 per cent of the general public who believed it was. In other European countries with large Muslim populations such as France and Germany, the difference was far less pronounced: more than a third of French Muslims said they did not have a problem with homosexuality.
I think the wording there covers pederasty too, don't you?
