Did you know May was National Masturbation Month? It's true!
So in honor of this magical month, here's a video from an Islamic cleric explaining why it's especially bad for women to masturbate. His logic on this: Inserting fingers and other objects into the vagina might tear the hymen, leading families to suspect 'fornication' on the part of the woman, leading them to kill her. Yup. And it's important to note that he thinks killing a woman for suspicion of sexuality is too extreme, and feels flogging is sufficient. This is what passes for helpful advice in his universe.
Also, someone should tell him about the clitoris.

You won't go blind but you might get killed.

I understand where he was coming from and it is very true - if you have a culture that would go so far in shaming a woman for not being able to prove her virginity that she may be killed for it - it is a matter of personal safety that she not break her hymen. However, a hymen can break in a multitude of ways: exercise, horseback riding, accidents and personal injury, riding a bike, etc. The burden of proof is therefore not even in the hands of the woman... it's in her hymen, a body part that she generally doesn't have much control over, especially considering that it is designed to break easily.
