Everytime a feminists states for fact that the Judeo-Christian religions have held women back, I bring up the names Deborah and Golda Meir.
You would be amazed how many of these “educated” women had no idea that the fourth Judge of Israel was a woman, or that the fourth Prime Minister of Israel was a woman.
They are stunned that these “misogynistic” Jews would put women into positions of authority. I also point out that Christiandom led to Catherine the Great, Elizabeth, Victoria, Joan of Arc, Mary Queen of Scots, Margaret Thatcher, etc.
Ask them for a female ruler outside of the Judeo-Christian cultures and they can name maybe 3 or 4 at most.
Apparently the woman pretending to be a Muslim did not really study the culture. She thinks that her culture is better; it may not be.
Maybe best for no woman to mix with Moslem men. It seems their culture encourages them to be raped, enslaved, stoned, flogged and beheaded.
Sparta seems to have had the first society where men and women were treated fairly equally. Rome was not too bad either. The Germanic and Celtic tribes certainly accorded women higher status than the Middle Eastern scum.
Ah, so silly of me not to grasp the distinctions! LOL
Thank heavens you were there to straighten me out.
Where are the feminist in America on this topic? Where’s HRC?
You are assuming that Feminists are motivated by sex. Let me assure you they are NOT. Feminists reject most forms of sexuality and the practice of sex as misogynistic.
I think their lack attractiveness or desirable demeanor has left them bitter and spiteful and in response they lash out at a world that largely rejects them.
Might be interesting to read the rest, but since registration is required, I’ll pass.
American women visiting or working in Saudi Arabia do NOT have to wear the prescribed clothing (burka). They do have to dress modestly (e.g. a dress that buttons to the neck like a 1900s schoolmarm). If the writer chose to wear a burkha she is pretending to be a Muslim IMO. That is, she is implying that she agrees with the precepts of Islam by wearing religious clothing.
Care to explain your assertion that Saudi Culture “might be” better than ours?
