Scamming men aren't men.

I don't understand where your arrogance comes from. You know very well what these men do is wrong!! How do you condone this and laugh.. It says a lot about you!!
1) Muslim men are permitted to marry the women of the book. AKA: Muslims, Jews, and Christians. So woman being Muslim isn't a requirement for marriage and it shouldn't be a requirement for respect.
2) Khadija was older than the prophet. So if a man has a problem with that it is his culture and his personality to blame and has nothing to do with Islam.
3) As a Muslim American revert married over 11 years to a Muslim man raising a Muslim American child. Any decent man will do right by his woman regardless to her background. It is not the fault of innocent women to fall victim to greedy men who have no moral compass. Frankly, I don't even view these men as men, they are just common liars and thieves. Way to go sticking up for these losers who usually aren't seen as good potential husbands in their own country, hence why they are scamming and using women to gain the visa, the money and status.

The problem isn't Islam, the problem is the men who follow their culture and the greed within the culture. Without a stable income these men can't marry nor have a family. From small children they are told " Their women are better." This is the way many if not most of these men think before marriage. The reality is most women are the same and every woman has her shortcomings. Being in a hybrid marriage I will say that it is a lot easier being married to someone from your own culture/ religion but a man with good character and a working moral compass can be an amazing husband regardless to the cultural differences.. Honestly, from what I have seen, 99% of the older woman/ Muslim man is a symbiotic relationship and once he gets on his feet he will leave. I'd advise most women to avoid these relationships, I rarely see them as fruitful and you will get hurt.
