Yes, I agree with you, it's a load of crap.accelafine wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2024 6:54 pm
What a load of crap. Women are also not 'allowed' to make a sound in public. Apparently even their voices/laughs cause muslim men to get raging, uncontrollable erections and incite them to rape (if you believe that you will believe anything).
I agree with you, the treatment of these women in Afghanistan is a disgusting enforcement upon women to make them submissive to men. It's an insane form of radicalisation to a more extreme and intolerant belief system.accelafine wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2024 6:54 pm It has nothing to do with women being 'sacred', and it certainly has nothing to do with 'protecting' them. If women don't comply then they are likely to be stoned or hanged. So much for being 'protected'.
Personally, I don't agree with their lifestyle. It's degrading, and offensive to me. Why would I endorse something like legalised slavery, which is what it is.
The idea of the 'sacred' female, and her right to be protected, was something I had heard about from a Muslim family who used to live close by, they were my neighbours for many years. I was quite friendly with them, and they in turn were very hospitable to me personally, they told me many things about the Islamic lifestyle. One of the things they mentioned, was how Muslims viewed women as being 'sacred beings'
I personally, don't believe in that crap either, sorry for not making that clear at the time of posting the information.
I agree, and in my direct experience of men, I have never known men to be protective of women, not ever.
If anything, my experience of men, is that they see women as easy targets that must be kept in-line, they are made to become submissive so that the men are then freed to dominate the world.
Heck, even the religion that is Christianity, the idea of a marriage between a man and a woman was regarded as a sacred institution. Again, that was ordained by a man, namely the ''he'' male God. Same idea, the marriage was to chain women to a life of kitchen sink duties, and child rearing. Another form of legalised slavery. Imagine that, being someone's else's slave for the rest of your life, with no chance of ever experiencing what it would be like to explore life with anyone else. How oppressive is marriage.
