Sexuality of Osama bin Laden

(

)

... that after the death of Osama bin Laden (pictured), his first wife Najwa bin Laden described him as a "sex machine"?

Is this really a notable enough topic for a stand-alone article? I think that it would struggle to survive an AfD. Nick-D (talk) 07:11, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

The level of media coverage the topic received makes it certainly notable. And consistent with other articles in Category:Sexuality of individuals. --SupernovaExplosion ^Talk 07:16, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Those are all subjects where there's significant coverage of the topic in serious scholarly works. This article is based on some news stories, several of which say that it's unclear whether the porn and drugs had anything to do with Bin Laden. I'm going to put my money where my mouth is and nominate it for deletion. Nick-D (talk) 10:05, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Sorry SupernovaExplosion, but looking at the AfD, it doesn't seem like this is going to stick around. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 00:27, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
