“Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other…” (Qur’an 4:34)
“Saudi Man Divorces Wife For ‘Walking Ahead,'” Press Trust of India, August 21, 2017:
Dubai: A Saudi man has divorced his wife for walking ahead of him despite repeated warnings, a media report said today. Saudis are becoming increasingly alarmed over the rate of divorces in the kingdom for trivial reasons as growing calls are emerging to provide married couples, especially newlyweds, with counselling services.
The man, who was not identified, gave his wife repeated warnings to keep a step behind him, but she kept walking ahead of him after which, he divorced her, The Gulf News quoted the Saudi daily Al Watan as saying.
In another case, a Saudi man divorced his wife after she forgot to put the sheep head — “the most important part of the dinner” — on the main dish presented by her husband as he hosted his friends for dinner, the report said.
The woman said that after the guests left, her angry husband accused her of embarrassing him by forgetting to present the most important part of the dinner to his guests.
In another case, a husband divorced his wife during their honeymoon for wearing foot bangles….

And if you criticise this kind of behaviour you are “racist” , Muslim “hater” and other such B.S.

I hate Arab culture. There, I said it. I think its a filthy culture. It manufactures and develops nothing of value within itself. Its lazy, decadent, selfish and violent. Sexually obsessed, obscene and corrupt. The guise of ‘honour’ and individual greed and self-entitlement come before anything else – including basic human decency and compassion.
Their culture is a seething cesspit, with a nasty malignancy within it. Festering away. Producing awful results.
The only thing of note that Arab culture has bought to the world across history is Islam. And if that’s not an indictment for the truth of the festering sore that Arab culture is, on the face of the human species, then I don’t know what is.
Does that make me racist? I could care less anymore. I don’t care if it makes me a bigot. I don’t care if it makes me an Islamaphobe at this stage. I’ve spoken the truth. I can lie my head down on my pillow tonight and know that today, I stayed true to my own values and convictions – and I was honest.
That means more to me, than the hysterical insults thrown at me, by the Left (or the Arabs, for that matter) for daring to speak outside of their GroupThink.
More and more of us need to be prepared to be honest. And to be castigated for that. To suffer the consequences for it. I’m pretty brave, but I’ve never been truly tested either, in all honesty. But if I want the right to stand by my own personal values – it seems in today’s world, I have to fight for that right. So be it. If we do not exercise our right to speak the truth as it is – that right will be taken away from us.

There are some decent Arabs–mostly Christians and atheists. The problem is not racial; it is is Islam.

So the conclusion is they are the worst of creatures. Wife beating, honor killing, child marriage, divorcing wives without paying any maintenance, Killing apostates and infidels, and suicide bombing.
Larry says
Well said. I don’t know of any Islamic country inventing or creating anything which betters The World. When was the last patent filed by an Islamic country? Any medical or engineering breakthroughs? All they create is misery and destruction. If not for their oil, the Saudis would all still be living in tents and riding camels.
Susette says
Bravo! Islamophobe is a made-up term intended to be derogatory to those who question islam in all its filth. And it’s not racist to question or be against an ideology. Racists hate people merely for the color of their skin or their ethnicity. Islam is neither of those. It’s a religion disguised as a retrograde, damaging ideology and must be called out for what it is…this coming from a liberal feminist!
John Taylor says
Very well said Sarah.
Noel says
Sarah, I’m in complete agreement.
Honest Ali says
Islam, where they murder you for extramarital sex, but intramarital commitment is totally nonexistent…
Jesus H. Christ… EVERYTHING about that evil religion is perverse.
Seriously, even eating is perverse… you are supposed to take flies that land on your food and dunk and swirl them into the food, and eat food that has fallen on the floor.
Islam takes everything that is good, and makes it perverse and harmful.

Spot on, Honest Ali.
Japetto Donatelli says
Can you imagine how insecure these man-boy muslims must be, to be so upset over your wife’s slight advantage in walking that you’ll divorce her? That’s not a marriage, that’s slavery. What makes me so nervous about this marital mental illness is that they’re bringing this oppressive sh*t into our nation. If the muslim culture they import is that hateful and misogynistic then how can they ever assimilate with the west? If we allow muslims to bring their sharia nonsense into our nation then we must expect women will continue to be abused and discriminated against. That’s why we need anti-sharia legislation. When I think of all the hullabaloo about those Confederate statues, but we allow muslims to import and promote a system of slavery that is deeper and more deadly than all others. But that’s okay cuz it’s a religion. This is the madness and retardation our world is living right now. It’s like we haven’t grown in 1000 years.

Outlaw sharia but continue bringing in Muslims?
Good solution.
Mockingjay says
Well spoken, Japetto.
Ann Inquirer says
Ah, Ladies, aren’t these the joys of compliance – forgetting the sheep’s head for dinner, not walking behind, getting dressed up on a honeymoon? The problem, of course, is “modern technology.” More religious awareness is needed, don’t you think?

A severed head on a dinner plate. What’s a dinner party without it ?
Westman says
How difficult it must be to be selected as a bride for the convenience or political arrangements of men; to be subject to beating if satisfactions are not attained; to be robbed of education and chained to menial tasks; to be an unloved possession, which, when mistreated, will be sent back by an Imam for more.
Why does that Islamic trap work at all? Perhaps the woman finally finds love from the children she births before the males become aware that females are to be considered inferior, and the love from daughters still remains for a lifetime? Are there two, sexually divided, sub-societies within Islam adherents, each being a seperate support structure within the larger society of Islam?
I am very thankful that Western society has repudiated a “know your place” role for women; that my wife can freely speak to anyone and act upon her own choices; that my daughters have chosen their own level of education and careers.
When my wife and I look into each other’s eyes with love, knowing there is no coercion, it has great meaning and an assurance that we have chosen both the past and the future, together.
The Ayatollah was right, there isn’t much joy, music, or happiness in Islam for men and women who think like him and never learn to love.
RonaldB says
Muslim women are oppressed, but Muslim women support Islam and sharia as much as men.
Never forget Muslim women are not allies; they are the enemy.
Sarah says
Exactly Ronald.
Muslim women are 50% of the problem with Islam. We have evidence and proof of them as equally involved as the men in all the dirty facets of Islam.
Just because they are draped in a black bedsheet does not make them a Pitiful Pearl. And let us remember – the young Muslim males rampaging through the civilized world today – they were raised by those women.
Raised to be violent, sexually obsessed misogynists who love Islam and Allah over anyone and anything else. It was fed to them in a steady stream, along with the Antisemitism that their own mother’s milk seemingly produces.
Women in the West have proven – our gender does not make us weaker or less intelligent. It doesn’t make us saintlike or sweet. We are equally as capable as men of horrific things – and of understanding the consequences of our actions. And of being held to account for our actions.
Draping a bedsheet on a woman doesn’t suddenly make her stupid or incapable of rational thought. Female Muslims could break free tomorrow if they chose. They are 50% of the species after all, they have the numbers if nothing else.They also have literally – all the world of positive benefits to gain if they do. They willingly choose this sickening life. I have no empathy.

Islamic apologist: Islam is a “feminist” religion
Islamic critic: explain this news
Islamic apologist: Saudi Arabia doesn’t practice real Islam
Islamic critic: but SA’s constitution is coran itself and they implement sharia strictly
Islamic apologist: you’re a Islamophobic bigot
RonaldB says
He warned her several times and she actually disobeyed him repeatedly. I don’t see the indignation. Now, if he had divorced her without giving her at least one warning to walk behind him: that’s a real injustice.

Now what is Linda cockroach and her ilk are going to say about this!

If that swine can’t handle his wife walking a few steps ahead then that woman is better off without him. And sheeps head? I think that woman spared her guests
