Where do aliens come into it or is that just an over-exaggerated attempt at making some kind of banal point!! Just a respect for the values and equality of British women will do - such a silly, pointless comment in my opinion. It is only implicit if you see what you want to see!! Half the problem on here.

Whilst I kind of agree with you (I'm as anti religious as they come) forcing someone to do what you think they should do isn't a way to give these women "equality" it isn't equality if it's forced upon them. They have equal rights according to the law in Britain, it's their choice to avail of those rights or not. You may not like that but it isn't your choice. Changes within their religion has to come from those involved, the men and the women themselves. British women achieved their rights when they decided they wanted to fight for them, it wasn't a third party coming in and dictating to them what they should and shouldn't be doing.
