Sex and Islamic Suicide Terrorism
Good Morning:
He is a pious man. A believer.
He puts on a pack. Walks into a crowd. And detonates an explosion that will blow him and many innocent bystanders to bits
An Islamic suicide terrorist.
Sex-negativity is an important part of the system that creates him. But in the studies of terrorists you will find very little about their attitudes to erotic pleasure.
So here is the idea.
Islamic terrorists are almost 100% of an age (16-34) when testosterone levels are their highest in the male lifespan.
Testosterone is an imperious hormone. It commands attention. It compels action. Anyone doubtful about the potency of the chemical need only take a shot or two of it to see its effects.
Testosterone is lusty. It spurs sexual charge and the hunger for release. Exactly as nature intended.
When we resist that powerful drive, we hurt. Our genes want us to pay a price for disobeying commands that have kept our species alive for countless generations.
But imperious religions are threatened by imperious genes. Throughout history domineering religious traditions have sought to subdue the sex drive. Drive it into the shadows of existence.
Islam in most of the modern Middle East, is one such tradition. To be a young man in those cultures and full of the lust that is natural and healthy for a testosterone primed body, is to be sexually unfulfilled.
And the young men who have internalized autocratic Islam the deepest are the most sexually frustrated of all.
In their world, masturbation is a serious sin. Sex education is non-existent. Dating is impossible. Marriages are arranged. Every form of sexual media is criminalized.
To embrace traditional Islam is to be at war with your own sexual impulses.
Consider, for example, Mohamend Atta, the man who led the 9/11 bombings. He never had sex. He was repelled by images of nudity, even classic art paintings. His will instructed that his genitals not be touched during the preparation of his corpse, and that no women come near his grave.
Such uncompromising sex-negativity has predictable outcomes.
First, it diminishes the joy of living. Erotic pleasure is a key element of human happiness. Our genes designed it that way. Remove that source of vitality, and life becomes mundane, dry, rigid. Killing your sexuality makes killing yourself much easier.
Second, constant sexual self-restraint is psychologically de-stabilizing. When the body's normal impulses are perpetually denied, the part of the brain that exercises that over-control gets unnaturally inflated, impairing our intitution and wisdom. An unbalanced brain becomes highly suggestible. Not anchored in corporeal practicality, thought tends to the preposterous. Absurd ideas become credible. And so the sickening irrationality of the notion that "God" commands the killing of innocent bystanders becomes accepted as true.
Third, the internal war on one's own sexuality generates rage. Sexually frustrated men are not happy campers. Their testosterone needs an outlet. When women don't "fuck the war" out of men, they fight.
And sexually frustrated men tend not to be courageous, because real courage requires heart, and the heart withers in the midst of perpetual self conflict and pain. So sex-hating men look for easy targets. Like women, or gays, or ....innocent bystanders with Western values.
The sexually permissive West is a perfect icon of hate for people with deep sexual wounds. If sex is evil then so too are the cultures which normalize it.
Assemble the pieces of this profile and Islamic terrorism is more easily understood. The bodies of sexless men have little to live for. Their minds have much to die for and are primed to accept the most irrational pretexts to justify their demise.
So next time you hear about a suicide bomber, think about their attitude to sex. Think about how hating a part of oneself can cause one to hate everything else.

Well, U know if a Palestinian does things like that (suicide bombing) then its because they went
thru alot !! Not because of their testosterone levels.

Right on. I laugh at muthafuckers like the Pope telling people not to have sex, the Popes a faggot and Islam is primitive, fuck what yall say. I like Islam, I like alot of things about it, Im generally down with Muslims. RECOGNISE, but it also is a huge load of steaming primitive shit and stupid people following it makes it no better. Seriously, how could the Neocons resist blaming a stunt like 9/11 on these idiots? Same way they did crack to the blacks.

See.... it all comes down to perspective.
Because you got one group attacking Islam and they say that Muslim men are too sexual, that they have up to four wives, or they mention how the companions of the Prophet had multiple wives, and even engaged in temporary marriage arrangements, the Prophet himself even had a dozen or so women in his life....and so on.
Then you have another group now attacking Muslim men for not being sexual enough, and accusing Islam of working against a mans natural inclination towards sex.
The truth is that its true that some Muslim societies are too restrictive when it comes to sex. Like in Bagledash or Pakistan for example, marriages are arranged, and although Islam allows for divorce they have made divorce taboo in their culture.
But other Muslim societies like what you would find in Turkey, Indonesia or West Africa allow for mixing between men and women and some even have a girlfriend/boyfriend system like you find in America.
So Islam itself does not encourage a Muslim to be celibate like Catholocism does, but rather Islam understands the true nature of people is to engage intimately and only encourages that it is done under a true, stated and understood agreement of terms.

Word. I understand what you saying about 'perspective', we on the same cloud on that one my man believe me, but tell me:
Whats stopping all Islamic societies from adopting the same repressive standards like Saudi Arabia and Iran? What makes the difference between them countries and the more moderate ones like you mentioned like West Africa and Turkey?
Before you reply, heres what I think, I think the difference is reflected in your post:

Let me expalin, the fact is: Islam means different things to different people. People (muslim or otherwise) could easily argue that Islam's attitude on sex goes furthur than what you say. But what is important is what YOU, believe Islam to be. What is important is that you been blessed with the opportunity to discover what Islam means to you, for alot of other people this opportunity is hard to ever attain...
I mean, violence breeds violence, but that aside, what about the London bombers or the Columbine kids? dudes who grown up in a Liberal society, tolerant country with bountiful opportunities for wealth and a good life, why did they decide to blown themselves up? Because they closed their minds off. You on the other-hand seek understanding, why else would you fucking bother going over to explore the World, why not just sit in your room your whole life reading the Koran? The difference between madness and sanity is but a few neurons in our brains.
