"We are trying to tell women about these motives, but you try and stop us because you're more concerned with the reputation of your culture's men that with the well-being of others."

Once upon a time in my illogical youth, I was also enamored with the Arabic poetry and songs. I prefer Italian opera myself, but Arabic music is very romantic. Sadly, it does represent reality, as I learned the hard way. I do not get paid to post on this forum, but I made a promise to myself years ago, to speak out when I could to guide any woman I could.

Isis is still in this stage, so I cannot criticize her.

I've also failed to see the facts of most of these cases on the forum. I speak only from experience, my own and at least 200 other cases I've known personally. 90% have now ended in divorce. The Christian women who have converted, most have gone back to their original religion, and/or none practicing Muslims (fence sitters) or remain in the religion on paper for the sake of custody of the children.

I appreciate your logic in this forum.

Most of these girls have not spoken to their fathers, or their brothers about these men, if they had, the men would totally object due to logic.

Also, I doubt if they would be impressed with Amr Diab belting out yet another "Ya Habity" song which does not compare to Andrea Bocelli singing "Somos Novos" or '"Amore" in lyrics, musical arrangement, composition or passion. So, to each his own on music appreciation.
