@Jinxey: Do you believe it was 'religion' per se? I think it was sexism: That men in the community lusted after these women and then blamed the women for 'seducing' the men. Thus it was simple to label the women (who did not have a political voice) and simply remove the threat of having to answer for their own weakness.
Any counter thoughts?
