Women are oppressed everywhere. boo hoo...
But it's much worse for muslim women in western countries and even worse for them in muslim countries!!!
In a truly Islamic society women have the following rights in Islam:
The right and duty to obtain education.
The right to have their own independent property.
The right to work to earn money if they need it or want it.
Equality of reward for equal deeds.
The right to participate fully in public life and have their voices heard by those in power.
The right to provisions from the husband for all her needs and more.
The right to negotiate marriage terms of her choice.
The right to obtain divorce from her husband, even on the grounds that she simply can't stand him.
The right to keep all her own money (she is not responsible to maintain any relations).
The right to get sexual satisfaction from her husband.
and more...
But they never practice what they preach now do they....

The fact remains that a lot of Islamic women are oppressed and the ones that post on here that claim that they are liberated are in fact brain washed.. or simply like to be in bondage (A weird form of infactuation)
But there are still inequalities in the Quran ----and I'm talking about pure Islam, not the twisted obscenities that Muslims have made in the name of Islam. For example, a man can divorce his wife for any reason, but a woman needs a valid reason. A Muslim male can marry a kitabiyya, but a Muslim female may only take a Muslim husband.
The whole problem with Islam is precisely what made it so succesful in medieval times! It is so complete, it covers practically every detail of human life. In a feudal system, that made Islam wildly succesful because it was so well-adjusted. But when feudalism starts breaking down, and capitalism, democracy and free thinking attempt to emerge, Islam gets in the way.
Former Miss Canada Nazanin Afshin-Jam of Iranian origin is also on the target lists for Islamic fundamentalists.

Islam has many good things that I respect. But sooner or later either Islam must go, or civilizational progress must go.
