Response to female desire letter in Islamic world

Submitted by Donald (United States), Jul 3, 2006 at 13:21

This woman is living a lie. What needs to happen in the Islamic world is a complete overhaul of how men treat women in their countries. It won't happen anytime soon unless progressive women stop kidding themselves. How about this? Have all the Islamic men walk around with veils on and ask permission to do just about anything and everything from the women. When religion enters the bedroom, that's where the real evil begins. And I do believe that most men are fearful of the sexual and intellectual power of women, no matter what the country. And many women have bought into the pathetic concept as well that men ar superior. If you look closer, you will see religion is behind all of that. Dark ages, anyone? Regards, Donald
