what about you ?

You can simply ignore those words for good. If not, at-least you could try to reform yourself.

Islam permits you to marry and consumate the marriage with a 9 yr old. At the same time it does'nt prohibit you from marrying an adult who is twice as old. Nor does it compel you to take many wives or divorce frequently. You make the final decision whether to abuse a child or marry a consenting adult... whether you mutilate your wife or make her a partner in your pleasures... whether you stick to the wife of your youth or divorce and remarry at whim... whether you blow up your neighbor or live alongside him in peace

... and you blame it on "the words"
