This is against Shia beliefs. You must have have the temporary marriage.

The fact that a gal could support this shows women and men have different sexual needs. As SoCal points out, women are sexual camels.

Women have needs too. (I am not sure what you mean by a sexual camel.) That said, men are not animals. They can exercise self control for the sake of decency and respect of women.

Women can cross large deserts of abstaining for life giving water, fill up quickly and abstain for long periods. Women's needs pale in comparison the male needs. Male needs are constant; women's needs are hard to define, but they are not very vibrant, and can be easily subordinated to other interests.

Men CAN exercise control but traditionally prefer not to. Those that do are called MONKS, and usually require pyschotropic medication.

They could exercise self control...but why bother when you can have institutionalized prostitution?!

A sex camel can store up and go months without, ahem, relations...not unlike a dromedary's use of water.

The only problem with this analogy is the camel needs long drinks to fill up, whereas the proverbial human version only requires an Indy pit stop, not a prolonged visit to the oasis at the Four Seasons.
