It was an article in Arabic for my school magazine. The title was &#8220;It&#8221;. I do remember that my teacher Wafaa read the whole article without any interruption and then gave it back to me saying that she can not publish it. I was angry because I thought it is good and worth publishing as it was written for teenagers (and wrote by one). I wrote it in a decent way and was just trying to question a tradition of considering sex immoral in my society while almost everyone is thinking about it in a way or another! I questioned the relation between sex and love and at the end proposed a class about this issue to be taught for us because I knew how my fellow students were chanted by this topic. When I insisted on a reason for her rejection she said: &#8220;You can only publish such things in &#8216;Your Private Doctor Magazine&#8217; the only magazine then that wrote about sex in Arabic (Tabybak El khas \u0637\u0628\u064a\u0628\u0643 \u0627\u0644\u062e\u0627\u0635) for some time later I used to be an avid reader for that magazine but my article did not find its way to the target readers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-13db21ee elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"13db21ee\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7d149479\" data-id=\"7d149479\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7cfdd46f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7cfdd46f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;motion_fx_motion_fx_scrolling&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_translateY_effect&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_translateX_effect&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;motion_fx_translateX_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:6.4,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;motion_fx_translateX_affectedRange&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:{&quot;start&quot;:6,&quot;end&quot;:100}},&quot;motion_fx_translateY_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:4,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;motion_fx_translateY_affectedRange&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:{&quot;start&quot;:0,&quot;end&quot;:100}},&quot;motion_fx_devices&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;,&quot;mobile&quot;]}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div> &hellip;<p class=\"ast-the-content-more-link\"> <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/ssamir.com\/de\/634\/sex-vs-morality.html\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Sex and Morality<\/span>Read More &raquo;<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was 14 years old when I first wrote about sex and morality.
