Yes, Lina, both cultural and religion are to blame

Thank you Lina! I cannot write too much today. But I have read the whole Qur'an, mostly because I needed to understand what I was getting into. Some things are clearly written in there. Men are our keys to Jannah and we women only have to do a few things to get our spot in there: Obeying our husbands, praying and fasting and taking care of the children. They have the responsibility to provide for the family and protect us. And they consider we cannot make big decisions because we women are emotional, meaning disastrous decisions of course!, so only men can lead the family. Great. :(

Mix all islamic core values and their tribal culture and there you have a very dangerous cocktail. They aim to draining us until they leave us without any belief. Then, they can manage to get what they want.

I'll be back! Have a very nice weekend! And thanks again for your replies. Very much appreciated :)
