The appeal of Islam to violent, low-skilled, low-income, low-cultured men becomes clearer every day. It's the ideal religion for wife-beaters of all races...or for any man who needs a scapegoat for his own shortcomings.
Ditto to that.
Just be glad that our culture has grown out of the Christian "wife as property" "females are inferior" mentality. While the Quran does have many protections for women in it, and exalts them in many cases, it's still behind modern Western culture, and most of Islam follows it to the letter.
It's time for that religion to grow up before it pisses us off too much.
