Why Muslims suck!
Brethren & Sistren
One of the more sensible aspects of Islam is that it doesn't allow their women to meet men outside her nearest family - thus effectively keeping them inside the kitchen. However a fatwa from one of Sunni Islam's most prestigious institutions, the Al-Azhar University, is about to change this:
Egypt: Fatwa allows breast-feeding among adults (Jerusalem Post)
Ezzat Attiya had issued a fatwa, or religious edict, saying adult men could breast-feed from female work colleagues as a way to avoid breaking Islamic rules that forbid men and women from being alone together.
In Islamic tradition, breast-feeding establishes a degree of maternal relation, even if a woman nurses a child who is not biologically hers. It means the child could not marry the nursing woman’s biological children.
Attiya - the head of Al-Azhar’s Department of Hadith, or teachings of the Prophet Muhammad - insisted the same would apply with adults. He argued that if a man nursed from a co-worker, it would establish a family bond between them and allow the two to work side-by-side without raising suspicion of an illicit sexual relation.
The last part is the worst. I can envision thousands of sweaty, unshaved Musselmaniacs slobbering over their female co-workers' unveiled bosoms, in order NOT to "raise suspicion of an illicit sexual relation."
