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?

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.

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.

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.

I'm not sure an example from personal experience was quite what I was after either.
I'll take a flier and guess. I'd distinguish, firstly, between the culture of any given Islamic society and Islam itself. Your earlier posts suggest that "an unmarried man having sex with boys is 'just doing what men do'" is disapproved of by any Islamic interpretation and subject to prosecution under local law.
I'm sure there have been times when pederasty has been culturally tolerated within some historical Islamic societies just as it has been in some historical Western ones. I doubt very much whether it is culturally tolerated in any today.
If you can provide a modern-day instance, from (for example) a newspaper article, we could see whether I'm on the right track.

Here's what seems a well-conducted research poll into British Muslim attitudes, published last month
http://reddit.independent.co.uk/toolbar ... d=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?

I did not say homosexuality does not include pederasty (pederasty is with young boys right?) I see nowhere on that link that talks of young boys. From what i have read it appears muslims do not see pedastry as homosexuality, i do and also as pedophilia.
Anyway another interesting link.
Pederasty has historically had both a secular and religious literary presence in the Islamic world and continues today as a frowned upon, unspoken, yet tolerated form of male sexual expression in many countries and cultures under the crescent of Islam. If one is skeptical of this theory, he would be hard-pressed to explain why the practice continues predominantly in the far-flung rural areas of the peripheral countries of the Islamic world, such as Morocco (Schmitt and Sofer 25) and the Peshawar valley of Pakistan, having most recently witnessed an actual marriage between two males aged 42 and 16 in a remote village that attracted the outrage of the local community but nonetheless proceeded as planned (Asia Times).
While an occurrence such as the aforementioned marriage is bound to attract criticism from people of all religious stripes, including Muslims themselves, it cannot be denied that avenues exist for the expression of this sort of sexual expression in many Islamic societies, regardless of whether it is sanctioned by religious authorities. In terms of its legal consequences, pederasty is difficult to prosecute because of the necessity of four reliable, Muslim, male eyewitnesses to confirm the act, and the fact that neither male youths nor their families are often inclined to take up such matters with the authorities.

If the link shows Muslims condemning homosexuality, and homosexuality includes pederasty, it follows that those Muslims are condemning pederasty at the same time.
I agree with your linked article there that pederasty is hard to bring to court because of an inherent sense of shame on the part of the youth concerned. Exactly the same reason applied in bringing charges against US servicemen for forcing homosexual acts on juvenile boys detained in Iraq. And yes, I can give links if asked.

I think you're very mistaken, every society on earth has a small proportion of men who behave that way, I see no reason to find the proportion greater in any contemporary Islamic society or that the rest of them find it any less distasteful, as "an actual marriage between two males aged 42 and 16 in a remote village that attracted the outrage of the local community" in your text indicates.

I see no reason whatever to think anything else if you're comparing societies across the globe today, and for any historical moment in a given society from the Islamic past I'm quite sure I could find you one even more permissive in the West. You've shown yourself that local societies are outraged in Islamic-based cultures when these things are uncovered, just as they are in the West today. There's more than enough evidence that engaging juvenile males in sexual activity in countries with an Islamic legal system is prosecuted through the courts where it becomes known to the authorities.
What puzzles me most is that you seem so fascinated by the possibility that I'm mistaken. It seems inflammatory, inaccurate and biased.
Consider where this generation's sex tourists have headed if they wanted under-age sex with boys. Did they head to Dubai? Tehran? Indonesia? Not if they had any sense of self-preservation they didn't. They went to Brazil which is predominantly Christian, India which is predominantly Hindu, Bangkok which is predominantly Buddhist or Basingstoke which is predominantly a hotbed of wife-swappers, while those intending a lifelong pursuit of their hobby joined the Church of England and took charge of the local choir. If it comes to that, I can't remember a single leader of my scout troop who wasn't up for it whenever they ran a camp though I hope things have tightened up since.
If you're looking for a culture of acceptability, we grew up in it - the only adult response in the UK for generations was "don't tell tales" and a refusal to believe children.

I think this is one of those nature versus nurture things. If you believe it is nature, then being Islamic would have no affect, would it? However, folks that believe it is nurture could see it as a cultural norm.
But if that is the case, I don't see how it is the common practice that it is globally... homosexuality, not pedophilia which I think you are describing.

It depends on what you think homosexuality is. Is it a behaviour or is it a state of mind? If it's a state of mind then, so long as it's not practised as well, it's neither illegal nor frowned on by any of the monotheistic religions. What they condemn people for is expressing it in the form of actions. Even if it's a state of mind and it's nature then being in an Islamic culture might well tend to make expressing it as an action rather less likely, don't you think?
The thread's not concerned with pedophilia, it's about "having sex with boys" and we're using pederasty as the appropriate term. I'm not getting at anyone, I'm just trying to stick to what was raised because it's an entirely different issue. Sex with under-age girls isn't at issue, it's "[juvenile] males serving as substitutes for unavailable women".

Floppy - Spot's pedantric, which is ok with me, i like that he challenges me beyond the boundaries of which i would normally answer, my spelling mistakes let me down to the one's further educated than me, my choice of words challenge me beyond my education when replying to him or others more educated than myself but never for a second have i ever felt thick, i see it more as furthering myself to answer him or others more and thats good, how can that be a bad thing? It's not, education is the key.

I know what the definitions are. I also know that any man who isn't a pedophile in his soul would vomit at the notion of ramming his genitalia into the rectum of a 'boy' - passive, screaming,crying or begging for it.

I agree with your linked article there that pederasty is hard to bring to court because of an inherent sense of shame on the part of the youth concerned. Exactly the same reason applied in bringing charges against US servicemen for forcing homosexual acts on juvenile boys detained in Iraq. And yes, I can give links if asked.

I'd have thought you'd applaud the protection it provides against such outrages.

"I think the real topic for discussion should be the thread title" might perhaps be extended to the content of the opening post. That sets the context in rather more detail: "Is having sex with boys seen as the social norm?".
I dont understand this thread at all:-3 I have nothing against homosexuality,, each to their own is my opinion, if you are happier with someone of your own sex then thats what you should do:) I know you are talking about it here in the context of religion and how they see it,, but i dont understand the "young boys" bit. To me, a young boy of under 16, is a child so what is the difference between the two definitions you have put here?

yes i agree,,, so is spot saying all homosexuals would have sex with young boys because they are homosexual? Or is he saying thats what he thinks the religions that condem it think about homosexuality?

The one includes girls and the other doesn't. That's the sole reason I have for using one word instead of the other, in that it defines the area of discussion described in the opening post. "pedophile" is misleading, "pederast" is accurate.
"Is spot saying all homosexuals would have sex with young boys because they are homosexual"? Obviously I'm not, I can't see for the life of me why you should even ask.
A young boy of under 16 is a child, a child is not a young boy of under 16. Has the entire world lost its ability to think clearly this week?

Because i dont understand the way you explain things at times,, is that so hard for you to comprehend? I have had to read that 4 times before i even think i understand what you are saying!
ok ,, so saying the word child,, dont automatically mean you are talking about a young boy,, cos child would include girls have i got that right? i did actually get the fact that we are talking about boys here. But what im saying is even if we are sayng boys only,, he is still a child at under 16, therefore in my opnion child abuse. oh hang on ,, we need to use the proper word! right so you are saying the proper word here is pederast. But even if i agree thats the proper word to use ,, its still child abuse in my opinion.

Of course it's child abuse. That's why it's illegal under Islamic law. So would having sexual relations with an under-age girl be. Having sexual relations with an under-age girl wasn't part of the question in the opening post though.

Anyway ,, i dotn really want to talk about child abuse , so thanks for explaining and i'll be on my way now and let you get one with the original topic:)

What we were asked was whether "having sex with boys is seen as the social norm" in Islamic societies. We don't seem to have come up with any good reason to say yes and several good reasons to say no, including first-hand testimony from Egypt.
