Sayyid Qutb's America 1949 Greeley! Right out of a 1950's Family SitCom. Qutb's attitude toward sex is echoed by most Muslim Clerics. His attitude toward Western Civilization is echoed by most western critics on the left. That old dreaded "materialism!" The most interesting part of his criticism, to me, is his rejection of the "Mind Body Dichotomy," IE: The "Spiritual realm vs the "Material" realm. A Platonic concept. I agree that this is a major fallacy in Western thinking, but come to a different conclusion about the right way to look at it.

Also I found this statement about Qutb to be quite interesting. Siegel says. As for Qutb's revulsion over American sexuality, Fandy says there is no evidence that Qutb ever had a sexual relationship in his life.

<<"The American girl is well acquainted with her body's seductive capacity. She knows it lies in the face, and in expressive eyes, and thirsty lips. She knows seductiveness lies in the round breasts, the full buttocks, and in the shapely thighs, sleek legs -- and she shows all this and does not hide it.">> 1949, this Qutb is better off dead, he was talking about my mother.
