I have to say it amazes me that elements on this forum speak with outrage about Trump, find the EDL abhorrent (which they are) and think anyone who has anything to say about the Muslim faith is a raging bigot. But they feel it OK to collude with the subjugation of women and girls, girls who have their vaginas mutilated on holidays away from this country and come home in agony, (no-one ever prosecuted), girls who are attacked by men in their own family for smiling at a boy, girls forced to cover themselves from head to toe, indoctrination, brain washing, bullying, being treated as property, married under age to strangers who are adult men, because it's a known religion.
If you didn't know about religion and someone came along and told you this stuff went on and was sanctioned by society in the name of some faiths, and tolerance, I don't think you'd believe it. It's quite shocking if you break it down and think about it. Sometimes when you compare what people do moan about/take issue with/lecture the rest of us about, and what is really going on, even in this country behind closed doors, it makes you feel like you are living in the twilight zone. I knew a Turkish girl when I was 13 I used to play with in the local area who was taken out of the UK for a holiday and came back married to a 30 year old man. She told me she didn't like him and other things that made it clear it wasn't a marriage in name only. It ruined her life. The same thing happened to her sister two years later. I saw her once years later downtrodden, abandoned by the man, 6 kids, she looked 20 years older than she should have. How did they get away with it? You tell me. Why is it frowned upon to talk about this stuff? Why can't we question what is going on?
