I seem to recall that the very same passage in their Bible that condemns lust as thoughtcrime also prescribes a remedy—and it’s to gouge out your own leering eyes, not bar women from public spaces.
You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away; it is better for you to lose one of your members than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
They didn’t say “North American,” they said “American.” Everyone who speaks English understands that “America” on its own is almost always in reference to the USA.
