What is islamophobia - it is a dislike of a religious ideology that practices misogyny and that as good as enslaves women.

Yes I dislike, dissapprove and question that belief system - stick whatever label on that you will.

As a human being, especially as a woman, shouldn't you also dislike and question it?

Women havie been fighting the good fight against misogyny and sexism for decades in this country despite there not being much support from many men and it seems that even in this so-called 'enlightened' age thinks haven't changed as much as they should have.

Many people seem less interested in supporting female equality than they do in expressing their support of a backward thinking and repugnant misogynistic ideology like Islam. In my book that is double standards and quite worrying.

You can have your prejudice, but please don't suggest I adopt them to fit in with your skewed perception of what it means to live in a progressive society.

There are many cultures whose ideology jars with our own across the globe, your hysteria towards one religion is I suspect what is clouding your judgement.
Try to keep some perspective.

Yes there are but there are not so many that come here and walk around advertising the subjugation of women so blatantly, sticking two fingers up at the belief system of the country they choose to live in.

That is about as far removed from integration as you can get. I think many see that as an ominous sign for the future with good reason.

Yep - Muslims are by far the most oppressive religion and the most dangerous.

Yes well you are entitled to your Islamophobic ignorant opinion so there's not much more to say to you. I best leave it there.

As we all know ignorance is a matter of opinion and perspective and I feel just as offended by your opinions so yes I agree we best leave it there.

I used to live in Hackney and often caught the bus through Stamford Hill. I always wondered why the women were so drab. Its as though they went all out to make themselves look ugly in oversized wigs and heavy coats that looked like something granny use to wear. The women would walk obediently behind their husband, usually pushing some antiquated pushchair and have four or five kids in tow. They always looked so miserable.

Who asked you to add to any prejudices you already have - I was just suggesting that offering more support to 50% of the population, of which you are one, wouldn't be a bad thing.

I don't have any prejudices though, do I have to act or react to things differently because I am a woman?....
That's an odd concept in this supposed age of equality we have in the west isn't it?

If you say so, but neither do I as my opinions are based on reason, unless you are trying to say that the Muslim religion does not treat its women like second class citizens - that it is not a misoygistic religion and that any such belief that it is is untrue.

I have read plenty of accounts from Muslim women that say they are, not to mention what we see with our own eyes - to mention but a few.
