80 YEAR-OLD Muslim Woman Needs Dad's Permission to Get Married
Age.com/Yidwithlid ^ | 12/23/08 | Yidwithlid

Here is another example of how the "Religion of Peace" treats its women. Setareh, an 80-year-old Iranian Muslim woman has never married, but one day her childhood sweet heart showed up and proposed. Sounds like a beautiful story right? Well she cant get married without her father's permission. And since her father abandoned her family 78 years ago, she doesn't know where he is or even if he is still ALIVE? More below:

I don’t find this story credible. It plays to our stereotype. We think its true because we like to believe it. The media does it with the Christians all the time. I remember reading a story about 30 years old christian couple who didn’t know that you need to have sex to have children or another story about a muslim man marrying another man because the other man was wearing a burka and he didn’t realize the other person was a man til after marriage. To me, these stories sounds like BS

I think that's a "scene" from the novel Catch-22, isn't it?

I honestly don’t remember but I’m thinking they went ahead and let them sleep in the same bedroom. My parents actually mellowed quite a bit with age.

There's also a bit in the allegedly nonfiction book Everything You Wanted to Know About Sex (but Were Afraid to Ask) by "David Ruben MD" about an uneducated couple who thought the correct orifice was the woman's urethra. I don't believe that one at all-sounds like a 'medical student urban legend" IMO.
