IstanbullChick and to Isis

Isis, pay Istanbulchik no mind. ... She makes it sound like she is full of knowledge and she goes to all these Muslim/Islam countries all around the world and ask yourself WHY she would do this if she hated Muslim men so much? I live in America too and I have been around several men here from at least 4 different countries who are Muslims and considering I have no problem with male attraction, I have NEVER had one of these men to go out of their way to sexual harrass or even show a hint of disrespect for myself. Not saying she might not have a few, but she is implying all...oh yes, she must be one heck of a looker,lol to have all these men hitting on her harrassing her with her attitude toward them EVERYWHERE she goes.
Anyway, Istanbull chick, in reference to " You've proven your lack of self-respect and reasoning by marrying a mohammaden"....I have much respect for myself , my country and my beloved mohammeden that I married. You wouldn't find my Mohammeden on her belittling others for their choices or decisions. Isis you are much like myself....You look deep into the persons mind, thoughts, and judge people for who they are and not what others want you to believe. It takes a great lovable person and caring individual as yourself and myself to accept people for what is in their hearts and not judged on color or religion. My husband has not asked me to convert, pushed converting or even talks about what i should or shouldn't do as far as religion. He knows I am a good person and accepts me for who I am.

I am also tired of you clowns with low self-esteem, education or who have just been rode too hard and hung up wet too many times for Western men to want you that you marry the muslim males and import them back to the west and breed more muslim males with them.

I stanbulchick, I have great self respect and I hold my head high marrying my Moroccan/Arabic husband and am proud and have great confidence in my poise,looks,education....I have a great respectful job making military and aircraft windows for our soldiers fighting in Iraq, bullet proof glass/windwos for our President's car/fleece.....I have always held jobs paying at least $17-22 an hour for Alabama payscale (which is excellent).......I always got the most handsome male's attention in a room or at a club or in school...i always did aerobics and am currently in a gym and classes, and I have many a men dissappointed I am no longer single, but I followed my heart and judged him for him not what you and others have to say because you are bitter toward certain people and taking it out on everyone.....so your hung out to dry and can't get another man but a foreignor is way off base and is not accurate for all women and I for one will be the first to tell you that you are wrong in your thinking. I am not obese, not much older than my attractive husband, I work very hard and have since I was 16, I raise and support my three children 12,14,24 year olds on just my income, I do not take assistance from our government. I have always paved my own way without help from family or friends.

I am a good respectful wife and mother just like my mother before me. I for one do not appreciate you attacking Isis or any of us good women on this board. I didn't chose my husband becuae he is Muslim, I did not chose my husband because he represents Islam, I did not chose my husband because he is from Morocco or a foreignor...I chose him because of the mere fact he is a good MAN. A SIMPLE MAN!!

To my sweet husband,

You are not the air that I breathe, you are the sweet scent that drifts upon it
You are not the sounds that I hear, you are the music of my life.
You are not the food that I Need, You are the nourishment of my soul.
You are not my will to survive, you are my reason for living
It is with you that I experience the wonders of the world.
It is with you that I triumph over the challenges in my path.
It is your partnership that will lead me to the fulfillment of my dreams.
It is your friendship that guides me as I grow and learn.
It is your patience and wisdom that calms my restless nature.
It is through you that I know my TRUE self.
I do not take you for granted, I cherish you.
I do NOT NEED YOU, I CHOOSE YOU.
I choose you today in the witness of all the people who loves us.
I choose you tomorrow in the privacy of our hearts.
I choose you in strength and weakness.
I choose you in healthy and sickness.
I choose you in joy and in sorrow.
I WILL CHOOSE YOU, M'hammed.
