Homosexuality
In light of all the recent discussions on Islamic culture i would like to raise the question of homosexuality. Is having sex with boys seen as the social norm?
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?

Re: Homosexuality
I think you need to provide examples so we have something to suck on.

Re: Homosexuality
That's where having examples helps.

Re: Homosexuality
I mean a man having sex with a boy under 16 (i dont know what age is illegal there)
I will look for links for you Spot, at present i am just going by hearsay. In light of recent discussions i thought this would be a good time to find some accuracy. p.s - loved the way you put it.

Re: Homosexuality
Ok here's one to start you off but to be honest i did not really want to talk about terrorism as such. More how common is homosexuality.

Re: Homosexuality
Possibly a better link ............
In Islam, homosexuals (called qaum Lut, the "people of Lot") are condemned in the story of Lot's people in the Qur'an (15:73; 26:165) and in the last address of the Prophet Muhammad. However, attraction of men to beautiful male youths has been a part of the culture of some Islamic societies and the attraction is not generally condemned in itself.

Re: Homosexuality
Buttercup, I'm not trying to push you into searching indefinitely but when I say examples I don't mean biased opinion pieces or history books giving theory, I mean an instance or two of what you're asking us to discuss.
