[She also mentions, in her conclusion, how some Muslim poet made a weird comment about how segregating the sexes like Islam does only encourages pederasty (179). If old men had easier access to young girls, they would be less likely to have sexual relations with young boys. She claims the poet was "greatly oversimplifying the sexual dynamics a man and a boy" as the poet seemed fine with pedophilia but not pederasty. Pedophilia, pederasty - in either case, it is disgusting and disturbing. (hide spoiler)]
