It’s actually the opposite, you psycho, lol. It’s an overcorrection of male libido, it’s “benevolent sexism”. Not that I support it, but at its core it’s meant to help men avoid sinful lust, which is evidently positive (and only a hedonist would disagree).

I wouldn’t consider myself a hedonist and I disagree. Men should learn to control themselves, and that doesn’t happen if they’re never exposed to things that challenge them. Repression doesn’t make things better, it makes them awkward, obsessive, and it makes discussion taboo. Which makes abuse all the more likely.
It’s called exclusionary sexism. And men not being able to avoid sinful lust is just an excuse. The true purpose is to limit women’s social circles to male family members and other women. Isolate them in order to control them.
In part, probably (like I said, there’s at least a tinge of misogyny in contemporary “Muslim culture”), but not in essence. The “sexism” goes both ways, and at least ideologically one way, since it’s the men that are seen as the disruptors of the peace, and the women as the object of temptation (inherently so obviously innocently as well).
You see the same thing with most Male dominated institutions. Religions are some of the last holdouts excluding women from holding positions of power. Its easier to control people, when the one half controls the other half for you in the name of “culture”.
It’s not just muslims, you see it in Christian nationalism, pro-life movements, Mormonism etc. Women always have their “role to play”, while the men have no such restrictions.
The idea behind it is “grown women are sexually attractive and, in order not to disturb them with our unwanted advances and not to disturb ourselves with unwanted thoughts, the sexes should be separated in such events”. Now, I don’t agree with it (and I’m not that afraid of having passing ‘sexual’ thoughts, lol), but the core idea is one of prosociality and female safety, that’s undeniable. It’s at best unnecessary and low-key hurtful both to the women who want to participate and to the men who don’t feel like mindless rapists, but counterproductive virtue signalling and at least a tinge of sexism is sadly a big part of mainstream “Islamic culture”.

No, it isn’t. That’s not at all why the separation of sexes exists for Muslims.
It’s about the fact that once a woman reaches a certain age, she is now eligible for being owned by someone other than her father and must be treated as exclusive property that only one man can own. Restricting their movements and not giving them the right to drive a car or vote or do other “normal adult” things is all the same as separating the sexes and making women wear certain clothing.

Don’t forget Judisim! The Orthodox are extremely sexist.
It’s a very long list… And I was done on the toilet.
Fucking what?
Forbidding women from participating in a “fun” event doesn’t seem very benevolent to me.

I’m the psycho? Yet you’re defending men with young girls? Hah. Your username suggests you fuck little girls in the name of god.
While I think their deflection is disgusting. Muslims just consider them children.
While the Muslim religion has shitton of disgusting issues it doesn’t make them pedos. That’s a Christian/Catholic thing :)
Brother, what? Their prophet Mohammed was a pedophile.
(No, this does not mean every Muslim is a pedo. But they’re certainly just as complicit with pedophilia as the Christians and Catholics.)
