Talking about morals: to Alicia on her last post which by the way I love!

My dear Alicia... Yes, that post she wrote directed to me also hit a nerve on me and I think I said the same that you also wrote in your post. Although yours ir more detailed. Very well written and very true!

They're still here, Ajda wrote recently a few lines above stating that Dr Pipes is Muslim too.

Well, I just needed to add to your post that we all know well why readers like you and me are here. We're aligned with the article published by Dr Daniel Pipes and we have both the experience and the knowledge to defend his stance. I'm capable of replying any questions a woman in doubts may have and/or discussing with Muslimahs like them about their religion and the women's status in Islam. Since they're not either of these women, what is their motive to be here? We all do know as well!

They agree with Dr Pipes' article, but they defend their stance by insulting the hurt women because of their lifestyle who come here seeking advice or for helping and supporting others. So as they can see, their presence in here can't be very welcome.

I want them to know that because some of us really know their culture/religion, we did not end up being co-wives. We chose not to continue relationships with their men. Hence we don't miss them at all. We wisely chose because we have MORALS. Had I accepted his religion and proposals, they and I could be today co-wives... I wonder what they would think. We would be happily making the Eid food, attending the masjid together for the Jummah khutbah and sharing our man at nighttime... How cute! So yes, we all know what they're here and why they can't stop reading this forum. Actions speak louder than words. My ex taught me so. Probably, his best advice ever!
