To be a woman

Jo Wa, you are clearly in denial about the hypocrisy of ME culture, so again I'm choosing not to respond to you further. You also get a kick out of blaming women that have been used and abused, which by the way speaks miles.

Muslim men choose you because you're whipped. Because you're whipped from the day that you're born. Your sole purpose in life (so you're told) is to serve men - your male family members, your husband and your God (not necessarily in that order). You are valued based on a piece of flesh between your legs. And make no mistake, the day that you decide to step out of line you will see what it really means to be a woman. You will see how the s*** hits the fan when you're no longer "virtuous". You will see what happens when you refuse to have relations with your husband. If you're lucky he'll simply kick you out the bed.

In Saudi you can't even travel without the permission of your ten year old son. In Egypt women face FGM while their husbands are partying it up with Russian women along the Red Sea. In Pakistan you could be killed for falling in love with the wrong boy. If anything, some of the strongest women that I've known and heard of were Kurds - nothing to do with religion though. Yazidis are the same (look them up).

Look, I don't mean whipped as an insult. Like I said it is what it is, and your men like it that way. When a woman is sheltered, she is easy to manipulate, and cheat on with the easy women you speak of. They like to have their cake and eat it. They want the wife at home teaching their kids the Quran, and they want us kafirs as well.

I mean, if anything! If anything us women should be sticking together. These men cheat us all. They cheat and beat the uneducated wives stuck at home with the baby. They cheat us western harlots also. And by "these men" I don't mean the good Muslim men, because end of the day they wouldn't be fooling around in the first place.

Now you can keep kidding yourself that you're respected, but I ask you to open your eyes. To respect is to accept. Empower yourself. Good luck.
