In Delaware, the Sarah model multiplies (but must never, ever masturbate):
Well, maybe not coming.
Why are human religious and political movements so often energized by sexual regulation?
I’m asking a serious question.
For example, what makes a young conservative woman in America take up the discouragement of masturbation as a cause, or a 20-something woman in Egypt, against her secular parents’ wishes, announce at the dinner table that she has decided, of her own volition, to take up wearing the hijab?
Any theories?

Santi, read that article I sent you. Deals very much with this subject.
Andrew,
Cool. I will be sure to get to it this weekend. I took my kids for various vaccination boosters yesterday, so they have sore arms and are cranky, and I’ll be taking them with me as I do “Have a Meal with a Muslim Day” stuff today (radio interview at 10:30, mosque visit at 1:00, dinner at 5:00 with the imam). But when things slow down a bit tommorrow, I’ll have a look. I’ve been meaning to.

Why the red tops?
Red state?
Seems strange that red has become associated with conservatism. Of course it may be more populism, and maybe that is the key.

Actually it was more a coincidence than any thing else!
Well, because masturbation is bad. Clearly. I don’t want hairy palms.
