I know what youre saying, but It's not the religion that's the problem, It's the Men and the different cultures, My Muslim hubby is Grand but he's a man, well obviously says you, and he'd be controlling if i let him, I'm sure. but I don't like to be controlled I like to be the 1 in control. He can be childish, stubburn, sulky and spoilt but i carry on, ignore as i'd ignore the kids.. I was in a 7yr relationship with an Irish roman catholic, now that was scary, he controlled me, he was stubborn, he was spoilt by mammy but he never sulked, he'd walk out the door andI'd be the one left sulking while he ran to the pub to moan ..

. So really it a case of same ole same ole, men all over the world like to the king of their castle and not all, but the majority of them don't like to be out done by a woman, or feel that the woman is more supierior. we women, and it goes for all religions, are not given the chance to shine the way we should, proven fact, women are better drivers - ... give the women their own driving Lanes or time limits... Woman in the office, gets a promotion,bonus wage increase what does the man say - jaysus she must of been good in the sack, It's discrimination towards women because we're stronger mentally we can multitask, we can have a family,job social life still have time to clean the house, make the dinner help with homework and still find time to taxi kids to friends, football the list goes on.

we are a wonderful species, men are inferior and they know it, they're cowards and don't like for their wives r partners to show them up and make them look stupid so if you marry a man who's from a different culture and is not as educated r financially on the same level as you it bound to cause friction and anemosity later on as the marriage r partnership goes on.... Nobody likes to feel inferior and mayb muslim men r just using their religion as a weapon to keep their wives down, Which really isn't very muslim at all, whereas other men just use money, wife battering and other forms of mental abuse...
