Well that's just plain bullshit because once again you don't know that. But this isn't the first time I've heard a this blanket statement regarding Muslim women so I'm curious where are you getting this "information" from?
According to a 2010 study done by the Pew Research Center in 2010 and released January 2011, there's 49 Muslim-majority countries and Islam has 1.57 billion adherents, making up over 23% of the world population. With those kind of numbers there's no way anyone can make a single blanket statement to cover all of them.
And if you think women are so wonderfully done by in any western "christian" nation then perhaps you stop and look at
- How during the depression in the 1930s single women were fired from their jobs so that men could be hired as part of a government work policies.
- Then look at the nightmare that many beaten housewives had trying to get a divorce in the 1950s
- Then see how doctors wouldn't give birth control pills or IUDs to any unmarried woman in the 1960s
- Finally in the 1970s how many single mother's wanted to work in order to provide for their children but were told they should go after their dead beat ex-husbands more, or go on Welfare or put their kids in a foster home if they couldn't stay at home to look after them.
I hate to be rude or appear condescending but your voicing opinions like a lost taxi driver does.
