Now she making him look bad so they should of course chop her head off. How can she do that to a man. Men are so much better than any woman and all womans. Don't she know that Mohamed taught us all the four most important things in Islam. One....ladys is prostitute. Two...hate. Three...kill. Four... cristian is stupidity and jew is monkey and budisistis hate god thats how the cyclown hapent there. Also, alarabiya.com is a xtreemly terible organization for telling to public about moslems fighting moslems. Someone should take the alarabiya and chop their head off.

I know this because my men friends have told me so. Sometimes they are visual to point of objectification (though I know YOU aren't like that). However, women are aware of that and in our culture, behave - dress - etc appropriately. This was probably an arranged marriage (I know I am assuming here) and the face covering was their custom. This woman was so mired in this custom, her husband's violation of it was a shock to her. A shock and a violation she could not overcome. What is odd to us is that its HER asking for the divorce; not HIM. I am NOT defending this woman because I couldn't imagine. With what my medical issues have done to me physically I hate the way I look - plus I no longer date so its not an issue. But, my ex-husband was a very handsome man. It's not why I married him but I am sorry to say I could not have married someone I didn't see. It would be, in my mind, like buying a chair that is always covered. And I would never buy would I couldn't see. This is a big example, though - of how far apart our cultures are. Bizarre to us... but imagine the indoctrination and subjogation this woman has been put through in her life to feel covering herself up - even for her husband - is vital to her psychic survival.
