Do Muslims Mistreat Women?

The zionist MSM claims that Muslims mistreat women.

We at WUFYS know this is a lie, and that the real abuser of women is a zionist-corporate system that enslaves all through debt and monopolies.

The following article describes today's American woman.

Compares this with Islamic culture.

*****************************************************************************
In 2002 I was in a medium-sized town in Hungary when a fifteen-year-old girl approached me in a shirt that proudly proclaimed her to be a Dirty Girl.

Six months later at a women's studies conference in Philadelphia, the audience had young women in shirts with Cunt and Bitch scrawled on their chests. At another conference I saw that Dirty Girl had been updated to Stupid Dirty Girl, while another T-shirt insisted As long as I can be on top.

The “women’s movement” was supposed to reject prevailing standards of beauty -- the Barbie doll image (young, thin and blonde) that was unattainable by real women. Today, Barbie is back with a vengeance. Little girls in all ethnic groups start dieting in fourth grade, and never stop. Anorexia and bulimia occur in alarming proportions.

Women (not just teenagers) want to dress like Paris Hilton, Brittany Spears, Lindsay Lohan, and so on. They can't get enough cleavage, so they buy more.

The number of magazine stories about girls in their early and mid-teens who want breast augmentation surgery is increasing. So are the number of teens who receive breast and nose jobs as birthday or high school graduation gifts.

Dumb blondes are back in style: Jessica Simpson, Pamela Anderson, Paris Hilton. Women hack off their toes to fit into high priced, designer shoes. We are a generation awash in plastic surgery and Botox.

In a violent world, why would you dress your child to look like a sex object, or yourself to look like a porn star? Why would you wear a t-shirt that says Discipline Me?

Today, women’s fashions do not represent a challenge to patriarchy, let alone capitalism. They reflect a total submission to those systems.

We have come full circle. Women now show their “liberation” from patriarchies by dressing like the ultimate male sex fantasy. Men used to have to go to adult sex shops to see women dressed like this. Now they just go to work or school.

The system is powerful because it is invisible. The privileges at its core have been thoroughly institutionalized. Capitalism has one again showed its ability to take radical movements and re-package them in ways that reinforce the system, and preserve the existing distribution of power and privilege in society.

Women have learned to describe everything they do -- no matter how conformist, self-destructive or humiliating -- as a personal choice that cannot be criticized, since personal choice is what feminism is all about. And their "choice" is to be the object of sexual desire. They are socialized to relate to a false world of erotic images defined and controlled by men. This is a more sophisticated (and more insidious) version of male sexual culture.

Empowerment is no longer about getting an education, achieving economic independence, taking control of our bodies, saving the environment, or working toward social justice. “Empowerment” now means wearing the newest version of whatever t-shirt or body piecing we choose.

Recently a doctor on a morning TV show said more and more adult women are being diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. He described the life of the average super-mom as something like "woman rushing from task to task, unable to concentrate or complete them." His solution was to get them all on medication.

Women have been duped into trading social critique and collective action for “personal choice,” without social responsibility and without social context.

Whose interests does this serve?

The title of this article is inappropriate. A religion can not have hate. People have hate and love. The title should have been either "Does Islam discriminates against women" or "Do Muslim men hate women"
Suggest you correct this
Thanks

in the name of God the Maker

Calling someone a dog in China or
a Moslem country is a sign of sever
contempt. Yet In west it is
common to call some one or a group of people by words
like hund,sleuth,watchdog...
It is realy interesting that a group of
people are shameful of something and yet another group are proud of it.
When a sin is so common among a group of people ,commited day and night,gradually it will turn into a habit and maybe even into a law;
And if another group of people
do not commit that sin they will at first be chastized and then punished.
When clean people stop criticizing dirthy ones,the filthy will criticize the clean.
How far are they from the
Virgin ,Blessing Mary(Salam of Allah upon her).

Women are treated much better in Islamic countries than they are in the US and other Zionist-controlled countries.

Here in North America they are degraded into sex objects in pornographic films and treated without respect. Young girls see those films and think it is okay to perform all kind of sexual acts with boys and other girls. There are even films of women having sex with animals, created by Jewish owned companies. Women are used as prostitutes by Jewish Supremacist pimps, and made to perform all kinds of degrading acts. Psychologically, they are never the same after being through being prostitutes and porn actresses.

In Islam, women are much more better respected.
