Without it, things would develop like they did in the European middle ages, where the nobles, who were especially sheltered from such things in childhood due to Christianity\'s emphasis on modesty and chastity, would have almost no idea of sex until marriage.

Sometimes they would be so sheltered that even men would be unaware of something as common as male masturbation.

And for the women, due to the oppressive societal structure of the time, some would even consider masturbation to be in the realm of fantasy.

Thus, the secrecy regarding such a normal and almost critical act of life gave rise to many problems and many bizarre traditions, like the wedding ceremony where close friends and family might witness the consummation of the couple\'s marriage, both as a way to make the marriage legal as women were supposed to give their chastity to only their husband and as a way for older, more experienced members to give tips to the two virgins.

As a matter of fact, in Europe, using the guise of Christianity, sex was vilified to the point that it was seen only as an act done for procreation, and doing it for any other purpose other than that, doing it because one enjoyed it and wanted to take pleasure in this act was seen as sinful.

And the consequences of all this can be seen with one great, historical example involving one of the most famous couples in history - The French king Louis XVI and his bride, the famous Marie Antoinette.

In that case, the couple had been married for seven whole years without any children, causing great chaos in court.

Hearing this, at last. Marie Antoinette\'s brother Joseph, the Emperor of Austria, came to investigate.

He chatted with the king and discovered the source of the issue as he wrote in his diary later. "Louis has strong erections, he inserts his member, remains there for perhaps two minutes without moving, withdraws without ejaculating, and while still erect, bids good night. He\'s satisfied, saying he does it only out of a sense of duty but has no desire for it."

And, so Joseph, older and more experienced than the adolescent king, explained the mechanics of sex to Louis.

And voila!

Within a year of Joseph\'s visit, Marie was pregnant.

Louis XVI would comment soon after, "I delight in the pleasure, and I regret that I wasn\'t aware of it for so long".

While Marie Antoinette described her experience of a "most fundamental pleasure" in a letter she wrote to her mother.

So, using this example, one could see the backward of Christian Europe regarding sex, whereas the Islamic Middle East was comparatively much more progressive about it, viewing it not as a tool but as a means for a healthy marriage and so not only wrote many books about it but even translated famous ones like the Indian Kamasutra from Sanskrit to their own languages.

And thus, Alexander did not find the very concept of what the Adhanian nobility was doing distasteful.

In fact, he even approved the core concept of it.

But that was where his agreements ended.

Because he vehemently loathed what they were doing next.

To teach and make girls do those kinds of things, things which Lady Inayah had only eluded to and barely touched the surface of, even such vague descriptions made Alexander\'s skin crawl in disgust.

He believed that even the Scandinavian countries, who were the most free about sex and nudity in his previous world, with a very strong and open sex education program and with most children having seen their parents, relatives, and even many strangers naked by their teenage years, even them would find the kind of practices going on with the Adhanian nobles very objectionable.

Because although Adhanians called the bliss trainers sex educators, they were anything but.

They did not teach about safe, enjoyable, consensual sex, but turned girls into meat puppets, depraved sluts with no shame or modesty, used only to entertain and pleasure lustful men and be devoured by them.

And from Nafia\'s description, it seemed like that was the case with Mikaya, where Lady Inayah\'a teachings had twisted the girl into something else, a girl who could not understand the significance of sex and took part in recklessly, and by the time she grew up enough to fully appreciate the gravity of her situation, it was already too late.

She was in too deep.

\'That\'s why child sex laws are so important,\' Alexander found a real-life example of a victim of unrestricted, unsupervised sexual content.

But this did not mean his heart bled for Mikaya.

He did feel some pity but Mikaya\'s responsibility lay with her and more importantly her father.

Yes, Alexander felt that Pasha Farzah, for all his achievements had failed in this particular test of life, though Alexander did not really fault him.

As a pasha, he had a huge number of responsibilities to take care of, from managing the land to overseeing the nobles under him to keeping up with recent events.

And besides, in Pasha Farzah\'s mind, this was something everyone was doing, his forefathers had done so, he had so and many of his children before had done so.

So, why should Mikaya turn out any different?

And then there was also the fact that Mikaya wasn\'t his only child.

So, naturally, as the father and even grandfather to many, his attention was split across a lot of people, making it impossible to keep his daughter under his ever-watchful eyes every second of the day.

Also, Mikaya was still her own person, with her own thoughts and capacity to differentiate between right and wrong.

She was as much, if not more at fault for going astray than anyone else.

And thus Alexander, though he understood Mikaya\'s position, did not feel any goodwill towards her.

In fact, though he did not show it externally, he was furious with Mikaya, and if she did not have such a critical position in Adhanian olitics, Alexander would have made her life very miserable.

Something as simple as making the room she was in a bit less windproof or giving her damp firewood or changing the beds to a bit harder and more uncomfortable was child\'s play for Alexander.

But he could not really retaliate in such a way and the girl likely knew it, which was likely why she did such things.

And Nafia\'s little sob story did nothing to change his feelings.

In fact, on the contrary, it only managed to increase the disdain he had for Mikaya as well as associate the same feeling for her two maids, who Alexander had previously some sympathy for.

And although Nafia had not said it explicitly, Alexander figured out that they, being not only Mikaya\'s chambermaids but noble ladies too, had likely attended Lady Inayah\'s course with their mistress, which means they were at the very least silent witnesses to their mistress\'s gradual corruption.

And from how Nafia was leaking like an open faucet down there, Alexander would bet his money they were more than just innocent, oppressed observers who were cowed by the forceful Mikaya to join her in her misadventures.

And Alexander was right in his assumption as while Nafia recounted her mistress\'s misdeeds, her own accompanying carnal memories came with it, memories of activities like getting rammed by multiple cocks in the same hole, memories of activities like being made to drink questionable fluids, memories of activities like being teased and whipped in from a jeering crowd to release her fluids and the memories of activities like being having cum slathered all across her body like a lotion, giving her skin a nasty dull sheen that reeked of a musky, fishy odor.

Looking at Nafia portray Mikaya as just an errant child gone a bit astray while making it seem like she was just a victim of the higher noble class privileges, Alexander only sneered in his heart, \'If you were so concerned about the moral degradation of your mistress, then what stopped you from tattling about it to Pasha Farzah before everything went to shit? You have that \'holier than thou\' attitude, yet, in truth, you have the same level of pruriency as Mikaya don\'t you?\'

Nafia reminded Alexander of a proverb that literally translated to English as, \'Prim and proper on the outside, like the harbor on the inside,\' referring to the harbor as such places were traditionally muddy and dirty and chaotic.

And so the preverb described something or someone that looked very nice and presentable on the outside, but that just a little scrutiny would reveal it to be full of flaws.

And with how muddy Nafia\'s lower half was, Alexander felt that proverb was made to just describe this woman.

\'As if I would ever want to have anything to do with you whores,\' Alexander rolled his eyes inside his head at Nafia\'s request again.
