Lets see ...
Half the posters here appear to have some intelligence... stick to and discuss subject in hand.
The other half clearly lacking the intelligence to actually deal with the topic resort to character attacking and some down right stupid statements if you think about it logically.
Firstly the accusation mentioning issues like honour killing, relgion, forced arranged marriage etc makes you racist.
Clearly this is stupidity of the first order as
A) Discussing and encouraging open debate on these issues actually helps people in other races, cultures and relgions who may be victems here. Ie Im pretty sure a girl trapped in a forced arranged marriage is quite happy for anyone of any race to open the debate on the issue thats getting her raped in order someone come down and rescue her
B) Iheartdusty...
Clearly not engaging their brain, clearly having failed basic biology lesson on genetics
Now unlike you I will explain my reasoning on calling you dumb.
Relgion, tradition , culture, and beleifs are NOT race.
The notion of racisim is judging somone from what they cannot help of choose.
Ie Without some serious surgery you can help being male or female.
You cant help being gay, stright or Bi its your gentics
and unless you're Michael Jackson you cant change the colour of your skin
You sex, pigmentation and sexuality is your 'race'
Relgion, beleifs, tradtion, and culture are CHOICES
If your mum and dad were oriental, black, white, cat or dog
You will be the same.
But you can chose if you follow and support the beleifs of your parents
For example someone who had WW2 nazi parents does not have to support Hitler, they can join the resistance and help jews.
Likewise you dont have to follow your KKK parents
or stick to christianity, islam, buddisim, cannibalisim, human sacrifice aztecisim
Infact you can be muslim on tuesday, change to being a jew on thusday, christainity on Sunday, spen a month being a Jedi following the teachings of Yoda then become an atheist isf you should chose.
This means if a belief system carries out criminal, abusive, unfair or down right psychotic actions you dont have to stick with it therefore its a choice and therefore you are responsible for your decisions to support a particular relgion.
Just like I who as it happens is not white for your information does not have to be a binge drinking, junk food quaffing chav who gets teenage girls pregant withtou supporting them then runs amock in a Spanish holiday resport like a typical Brit.
Thus criticising absolutely horrendous human rights abusive mainly agaisnt the female race with the intention of stopping it does NOT MAKE YOU A RACIST however saying anyone who condemns abuse of women and children is a racist does make you a bleeding imbecile
And that does double for the air brained dimwit who thinks highlighting the abuse of women to try and cut down on the number of teenage girls being condemn to a life of being raped or worse... you know sexaully assulted by real perverts makes you a perve
I take it foxy (funny thought foxes were supposed to be smart)
If you think Im a perve for bringing up the issue of forced arranged marriage and honour killing you clearly think all child protection officers, rape councellors, and anyone working on a specialist antui rape police unit is also a perve as they have the same intention of preventing rapes.
DUH !!!!!!!
quote as for
I'm wondering why 'right to date' is being lumped in with rape and FGM etc?
And maybe you need to divorce culture from Islam?
Simple... you will find that its those brothers and fathers who won't let their daughters and sister date who they choose as long as said choice is not some junkie thug who has got several other girls pregnant and not helped out at all but thought it fun to go on the jeremy Kyle show to boast.
Who want their daughter or sister under their control so they can have her raped in an arranged marriage as they dont want their 'product used' boefore its sold.
And there is no different between islam, its assocaited culture and its abusive and perverted law system.
Take a typical islamic country.
The law is islamic law, the rules on its culture are islamic the whole system is islam thats what islam is.
Islam is not a relgion you attend to on one get to gether day
Wherever it gains influence and power it imposes a dictitoral legal and judicatial system of imposed culture called sharia.
Where you get the relgious police arresting young couples under islamic law to be tried underislamic law and put to death under islamic law so clearly the culture and relgion are one.
oh and no not a journalist... and yes axer to grind...
quote a good one...
Said axe is to stop perverted child abuse and rape.
Not something a 'perve' would want as a 'perve' would support these things whihc then indicates certain posts who are going against me on this and clearly support such acts as honour killing and forced arranged marriage are the true pervs and dangers to women and children.
Now Try arguing with the logic in that as opposed to attacking the poster or crying to any moderator.
