No, I am convinced that I could never convince you that anything it says in the Quran, anything at all, no matter what it is, is unfair.

Thank you for your attempt to explain, and I do take it you believe that of course females in Islam have the male equivalent of comely maidens to minister to their lustful desires, although I believe it a significant oversight not to have mentioned this explicitly as a reward for females, since the male rewards are spelled out so compellingly. But maybe it's to be assumed that women reading the Quran understand they get multiple partners conducive to sexual bliss, too.

My intuition tells me, though, that the argument would be made by scholars uncomfortable with that thought (applying as it would to their wives and daughters), that the sexual bliss equivalent for a woman is along the lines of becoming an asexual being. I have read nothing on this topic, but I believe I know males and I'd put money on that being the creative male-theologian's response to the question I've raised! I mean, like, shure, they are going to say their wives get toy boys!
