First Muslim Sex Shop opens

I'm all for this on account as a feminist and as someone who grew up in a multi-faith, multi-cultural city without feeling the need to rage war on each other.
Any attempts for mutual understanding between different faiths or cultures, or an attempt to promote positivity over hate, fear and blind persecution gets a thumbs up in my book.
I'm personally curious to see how the Muslim community adapt to it, but since the owner is playing by their own rules, they don't have much grounds to contest, nor do extreme right wing dutch nationalists have more 'ammo' to brand the entire concept as 'evil'.
Always need to fight against the negative minority to offer a chance of a more balanced view on the current state of things, but at least he's trying...
