ARE WOMEN EQUAL

Of course they are. The question should be "are women treated equally" the answer to this is NO.

Throughout this beautiful world many women are equal but certainly not all. We see up to 10,000 girls a DAY in islamic countries suffer the disgusting practice of female circumcision or genital mutilation as it should be referred to. if you have not read articles on this then search in Google and you will be alarmed to say the least.

Thats 3,000,000 women (mainly girls) each year. As a middle aged male I am circumcised but made the decision not to circumcise my boys. There were valid reasons centuries ago but not Today.

Female circumcision is nothing more than a disgusting religious excercise to force these women to "remain a virgin" until the day of their marriage. Next point these then mutilated girls can be given in marriage as young as Six and the husband is able to "Force himself upon these young girls when he choses"

This same husband may have Four wives wheras the wives are only allowed one husband. These husbands can also get a 24 hour wedding licence to spend time with their "new" bride. After 24 hours the "marriage" is anulled automatically.

Christian Ross,
I have been trying for years to get prosecution action on FGM here as almost 2 decades of education has failed.

After this latest Indonesian cattle slaughter blow up, i wonder if i could get 4 corners interested in filming the event taking place and its consequences.

Maybe that will gain some action.

Both those posts bring me to think.
I am aware of the practice hate it.
And cringe at the stupidity of our need to be nice to those carrying these practices out.
PC and a softness toward cultural differences, at the expense of our culture, is alive.
Women are not equal never have been.
We, some of us, made light of child sex slavery child murders abortions because of sex.
We need to take a long look at our selves.
Minor issue but makes a comment on attitudes to women.
In the Senate today, a silly old man made an insulting cat meow at Penny Wong.
IF she had done that to him?

Dear Belly,

Penny Wong can take care of herself. The guy meowing - only made a fool of himself. As someone once said - "A Woman who seeks to be equal with men, lacks ambition."
