Anti-woman, sure. Anti-gay people, definitely. Anti-ham sandwiches, no possible doubt. Anti-hundreds and hundreds of things that would make people happy if they weren't forbidden by some semi-literate, semi-savage, child molesting fanatic fourteen centuries ago, absolutely.

Quote:The tone of "Islam is anti-sex" can be seen very clearly in both the propaganda of some right-wing enthusiasts and in the religious code of some Muslim factions even; these Muslim factions have allergy to sex and they are one one of the reasons Islam is taken to be anti-women. Take the Wahhabi sect as an example, and the European far-right as another example.
Give the religion another chance; reports about child-molesting and being anti-women are either not true; or related to certain individuals.

But Islam is anti-sex, you said it yourself - sex is only sanctioned in a heterosexual marriage approved by the Quran. All other forms of sex are forbidden. Islam is anti-gay sex, sex between unmarried people, plural sex, and so on. Claiming that Islam is not anti-sex is sort of like claiming that Joe loves dogs, because he only poisons the ones that don't belong to him.
Sorry, Islam has had enough of a chance.
