“Why I masturbate my son” Or, if you jerk off your disabled son in a forest, does it make a noise? [The More You Know]

Say you’re the father of a young man with cerebral palsy. Young men have desires and what if they can’t express those sexual desires themselves? What if there’s a guy in there just aching to jerk off? Well, you do it for him, right? Right? YOU JERK OFF YOUR DISABLED SON. Just thought it would be fun to put that in all caps.

A Mr. Fayzel Mahamed, posted here on the Internet Infidels forums an explanation as to why he jerks off his retarded son… Fayzel Mahamed? This just keeps getting better and better? What’s the over / under on who the first God-fearing Republican senator to jump on this? I just want to hear some white bread Jesus freak senator from Missouri or Tennessee say the words “Muslim man jerking off his disabled son” on the news. Holy shit, I would laugh until I puked.

Just in case the above link goes down, here’s Mr. Mahamed’s post. Of course, this is the Internet, so there’s always the chance that this is just somebody fucking with us, but it sounds pretty legit. But a lot of things do. But this is from 2007 and this is the first I’ve heard of this, true or false so I have no idea. In any case, do actually go the forums… come for the guy jerking off his retarded son, stay for the flood of angry, confused comments.

The post:

At the beginning of February I posted an article on the Center for Inquiry (CFI) forum entitled “Why I Masturbate my Son” a copy which is below. As a member of CFI and a fellow secular huamnist I thought this was the ideal forum to debate why I masturbate my son, which as you will see after reading my article central to secular humanism.

I was amazed that instead of debating the issue, my article was censored and the posting removed. <removed extraneous comments about other sites - Michael>

Why I Masturbate my Son

I am a single father of a twenty one year old son named Mustafa who suffers from severe cerebral palsy. I have since the birth of Mustafa been intricately involved in his care and upbringing. Although Mustafa is seriously debilitated by his condition and faces enormous challenges in his life I have through a daily ritual of dedication, love, care and with abundance of patience been able to provide an environment of happiness and comfort, equal to that of any normal child.

Recently, I have been inspired by the revelation of baby Ashley X whose parents decided to stunt her growth in order to make her more manageable to handle. The dedication of Ashley X’s parents allowed me to come on air on a national radio station, Radio 702, to disclose a more controversial aspect of my son’s care.

My closeness to my son as well as my philosophy of life (secular humanism) and together with a reasonable understanding of what constitutes a healthy human being has allowed me to provide not only the wellbeing of my son physically and emotionally but sexually as well. I came to realise a few years ago that my son underwent the stage of puberty like all normal children and had sexual desires similar to all normal boys of his age. It came naturally in the development and care of my son to MASTURBATE him in order to relieve his sexual desires.

Masturbation is well documented as medically proven for the well being, physically and emotionally of every human being. It is a natural development for all human beings to indulge in from the onset of puberty. Masturbation gives great pleasure and relieves sexual tension. After masturbating him my son would express his pleasure and relief as all normal teenagers do. I doubt that any human being does not engage in masturbation at some stage in his or her life but if any person takes a conscientious decision not to masturbate it indicates a psychological problem on the part of the person and not with the act of masturbation.

The reason for my disclosure was twofold:
1. To allow other parents of severely handicapped teenagers who may be in a similar position and predicament to the situation that I faced to be able to explore an additional option in fulfilling the sexual desires of these teenagers.
2. To expose how the medical and health care workers of physiotherapist and psychologist have ignored or treated the subject of sexual feelings of cerebral teenage children as some sort of taboo subject not to be discussed at all.

I would like to emphasise that I am not advocating that teenage girls be masturbated as I am not familiar with female physiology, nor am I advocating that health care workers start masturbating teenagers under their care. I understand that this is illegal and will open up a new avenue of abuse. However, I am advocating that the medical fraternity start debating and exploring how to address this sensitive issue.

Since my revelation of masturbating my son I have been shunned by almost all the media in country. The blog that I have been using locally and in the USA has been censored and blocked. The medical fraternity taking care of the development of child health and welfare refuses to see me and discuss the issue.

There is a deafening silence by both the media and citizens of my country in addressing a very important health issue of children like my son who not only has to face his internal physical difficulties but also the prejudices of society.

Addendum to my original article.

As a former Muslim I understand that I would be pretty dumb and stupid if I came on air and claimed that I masturbate my severe cerebral palsied son. I know that there is no basis in Islam and as a Muslim to claim any religious justification for my act. However, I am a secular humanist. I live my life according to the philosphy of a secular humanism. I therefore have no problem masturbating my cerebral palsied son because by the principals of secular humanism of science, reason and logic my act is both correct and healthy to my son’s life.

I wish to request all the members of this blog, most of whom are atheist and secular humanist to engage me in a debate to see the ethics / morality of my act.
