New Film Lays Bare 'Pakistan's Hidden Shame'
Radio Free Europe ^

The United Kingdom's sizable Pakistani community has been under fire recently as a result of shocking revelations of widespread child sex exploitation in the city of Rotherham by men with links to that South Asian country.

Now, a new documentary screened by Britain's Channel 4 last week has been shifting attention to the problem of child abuse in Pakistan itself, particularly the northwestern city of Peshawar, near the Afghan border.

"Pakistan's Hidden Shame" charts the plight of Peshawar's street children, most of whom are believed to have experienced sexual abuse at some stage in their lives.

"A woman is a thing you keep at home," he says. "You can't take women out because people stare at them -- they're useless things; you have to show propriety and chasteness with them. You can take boys around anywhere with you and it isn't a big deal."

Women are property in islam, like furniture. You can buy, sell, destroy, or abuse them, and who really cares?

Mohammed set the example. They’re just living up to it.

What’s the problem?

All cultures are equal, right?

Doesn’t sound like it’s all that hidden.

“”What can we do?” he says at one point. “We know it’s totally against Islam. God doesn’t like it. But we’re helpless against our desire.”

Muslims believe that men have no control over their animal instincts and from what I have seen of Muslim men, that is true. They cannot be integrated into modern society until they come forward about 1400 years to civilization.

This is not a Muslim problem...the same abuse occurs in Manila and Bangcock, and in the past in Korea.

And it happens to both boys and girls.

Actually, I think this is muslim problem...their religion creates the artificial shortage of girls by hiding them and making them unavailable to men.

Only men of wealth can buy them...and then they are gone except for the wealthy and old.
