Why don't feminists fight for the most oppressed women in the world?

[Lysistrata]

I'm all agog.

Yes, you certainly are.

You believe brown skinned women do not deserve the same rights as white skinned women and you rationalize that attitude by showing indifference to their plight because they live elsewhere. You then indulge in a patently dishonest false equivalence by comparing the treatment of women living under the yoke of Islam to a politically motivated attempt to derail a nomination by one women who could remember no details whatsoever of her alleged rape and others who were flat out lying.

Yes, by all means we should ignore female genital mutilation, honor killings, and being worth less than a man in legal terms in favor of one women who made claims she couldn't support and others who quite clearly lied.

I realize you leftists who despise liberalism can come up with some real whoppers by way of stupid comparisons, but this one takes the cake.

Yes, by all means we should ignore female genital mutilation, honor killings, and being worth less than a man in legal terms in favor of one women who made claims she couldn't support and others who quite clearly lied

But no one has ever recommended that we ignore any of this.

Whose misconduct do you want to deflect attention from here in the U.S.?

Your first statement is not true and you are indulging in a brand of agitprop called turnspeak in your second.

The subject of this thread is why you phony feminists do what you phony feminists are doing in this thread.

But feminists don't do anything of the sort that you are suggesting. Again, what misconduct by non-Muslims are your trying to deflect attention from? Who and what are you trying to protect?

You are simply too stupid to be worth my time.

I see that you are unable to answer my question, in addition to making odd and unsubstantiated assumptions about what women who fight for equity believe. Just what are you trying to cover up?

Your comments are typical of the insecure men who cannot honestly discuss issues relating to women. It's sad.

This is a ridiculous attempt at deflection. Feminists fight all misconduct and attacks against women. What people who ask the absurd question posed by the OP are saying is "why don't you go away and complain about Muslims and let us sick fuckers alone to get away with anything we want with regard to mistreating women of any and all faiths." No faith should be singled out as being more oppressive. It's a dodge for men of all other faiths to prevent their misbehavior from being noticed and confronted.

Um, no, feminists don't. Feminists have taken Muslim women into the "women's marches" with seemingly little question as to how women are treated in Islam. And women are treated much worse in Islam, worldwide, than they are treated in Christianity. Honor killings, FGM, stonings, can't drive, work, walk without a man down the street.

I realize you are probably suffering from mental illness so I'm bracing myself for any personal attack with profanity you will launch at me as a result.

Why this comparative-religion BS? Oppression of women goes on worldwide and among all religions, including among "Christians" here in the U.S. who push and propagandize for male patriarchy and make no secret of it. You have to admit that the patriarchal system is based on the presence or absence of a penis.

This "oh, the Muslims are worse" is a raw attempt at deflection. If Muslim women wish to join marches for women's equality wherever they occur, this is their prerogative. I see that women across the world are on the march.

BTW: the practices you seemingly object to are from primitive tribal areas in places like Pakistan and in Africa. They are not products of Islam per se, but originate in tribal customs. This blend of religion and tribal customs goes on all over, including in the U.S.

How typical your diatribe, and how typically sad that Old Lady and Coyote said "thank you", not apparently seeing the difference between whatever "patriarchy" you all cry about in the US and honor killings, stonings, burka wearing and whatnot.

It just makes feminism into an utter joke.

I am not a feminist, just a woman. It is interesting though, that the OP asked a question and when a woman did answer it was immediately shot down as lies by men who are definitely NOT feminists and had no business trying to answer the question anyway.
There are many, many women fighting for the safety and the equality of Muslim women. They are risking their lives, some of them, to educate the girls and help the women who have been abused. Women in this country and all over the world are trying to stop FGM. What do you think Michele Obama's tour in Africa was all about? Women will not be free until they can be educated. One step at a time.

 

[Pilot1]

Why doesn't the plight of Muslim women get more traction in the Media? Why do they essentially ignore anything negative about the Muslim community. There treatment of Gays is horrific also, yet not a peep. Why?

 

[Taz]

This isn't about religion. It's about an oppressive form of government masquerading as religion.

Probably the same reason leftists don't call Muslims out on their other shit, like torturing and murdering gays, raping young boys and treating all women like shit. Since Obama's reign, it's politically incorrect to say anything negative about Muslims. They continue their plan to spread and multiply by introducing their sharia law to all countries they enter.

Never mind that many women who escaped the evil grip of Islam have pleaded for people to stop looking the other way and dismissing the abuse as religious freedom. Every time someone tries to speak up for these women, some liberal snaps at them and silences the discussion. Show outrage at Muslim TV shows discussing the best ways for men to beat their wives and cries of Islamaphobia drown you out. By the way, the suggestion for beating wives is to hit them hard enough to teach them a lesson but not hard enough to end up paying a medical bill. This is their version of common sense. These women had the misfortune of being born into a Muslim family and the only way they will ever be free is if they run away or until enough people speak out and Muslim males make changes. Until then, young girls will suffer genital mutilation, abuse and oppression their entire lives. Hey, it's the law in Muslim countries. No rights. And the left adores Linda Sarsour as she preaches the benefits of sharia law. Yea, well, she's following orders the way she has been taught to do her whole life.

Non-Muslim women are treated even worse since the Muslim males think they have a right to rape or abuse them. In France, a Muslim rapist was let go because he didn't know any better because of his culture. Yet, none of the idiots in Europe have the guts to lay down the law and tell all immigrants and refugees that they must respect the cultures and the laws of their host countries. This issue has come up many times in Britain, Germany and France. The leftists cried that it was rude and bigoted to tell people they can't rape anyone, can't shit in people's yards, can't scream and assault infidel women for not dressing appropriately, or assaulting people for coming too close to mosques. A pregnant women in Britain was murdered because she walked too close to a mosque.

Muslims go on sharia patrols in the areas they claim as their territory. They demand that their sharia law trump all other laws. That includes any rights women and children have. Islam is more government than religion yet the left here defends them at every turn. The fascist part of Islam must appeal to them. Areas in Michigan are slowly turning into a third world Muslim countries. Just recently, a Christian man was arrested for discussing his religion in public. The two women he was talking to told police that they willingly engaged in the conversation and joined him at a table. A third person overheard the discussion and called police. This is what America is becoming. In Muslim countries, it's illegal to talk about any religion other than Islam. It's a crime to do so and now it's a crime in the Muslim-controlled parts of the U.S.

"Are women oppressed in Muslim countries? What about in Islamic enclaves in the West? Are these places violating or fulfilling the Quran and Islamic law? Ayaan Hirsi Ali, an author and activist who was raised a devout Muslim, describes the human rights crisis of our time, asks why feminists in the West don't seem to care, and explains why immigration to the West from the Middle East means this issue matters more than ever."

Feminists and Liberals think that mooslim women covered themselves in a black sheet voluntarily.

I have both lived in proximity to and worked with and socialized with
muslims for about 50 years in the USA. Muslims dressed in jeans
are just as infatuated with the filth they hear in the mosques and learned
as children as are the freaks in costume. It was almost 50 years ago that I first heard a very startling example of the filth-----in a mosque, no less. Nothing like organized prayer sessions for driving the dirt right into the brain of a child. "crosses all lines" is a copout. Various cultures do THEIR THING---more or less------"THEIR THING" is a real
thing -----HUMANS is not blended soup

fight to educate women and end FGM-----actually there are lots of
men involved. All together there are really not a whole lot of either.

"Are women oppressed in Muslim countries? What about in Islamic enclaves in the West? Are these places violating or fulfilling the Quran and Islamic law? Ayaan Hirsi Ali, an author and activist who was raised a devout Muslim, describes the human rights crisis of our time, asks why feminists in the West don't seem to care, and explains why immigration to the West from the Middle East means this issue matters more than ever."

Why Don't Feminists Fight for Muslim Women?

Feminists and Liberals think that mooslim women covered themselves in a black sheet voluntarily.

What total BS. I live in an area with a sizable Muslim population. I have only seen a handful of people dressed in a "black sheet." Most dress in pants or jeans, sneakers, sweaters, and, sometimes, a hijab. You are totally ignorant. You can't even spell "Muslim" correctly.

Mistreatment of women crosses all lines. You have big chips on your shoulder against both women standing up for equal rights and the Islamic religion.

There are no equal rights in Islam, don't say such an ignorant thing before reading sharia law.

This isn't about religion. It's about an oppressive form of government masquerading as religion.

In Muslim countries, it's illegal to talk about any religion other than Islam. It's a crime to do so and now it's a crime in the Muslim-controlled parts of the U.S.

There are no equal rights in Islam, don't say such an ignorant thing before reading sharia law.

It IS the religion Clementine---not a masquerade and not "cultural"

This is a ridiculous attempt at deflection. Feminists fight all misconduct and attacks against women. What people who ask the absurd question posed by the OP are saying is "why don't you go away and complain about Muslims and let us sick fuckers alone to get away with anything we want with regard to mistreating women of any and all faiths." No faith should be singled out as being more oppressive. It's a dodge for men of all other faiths to prevent their misbehavior from being noticed and confronted.

Um, no, feminists don't. Feminists have taken Muslim women into the "women's marches" with seemingly little question as to how women are treated in Islam. And women are treated much worse in Islam, worldwide, than they are treated in Christianity. Honor killings, FGM, stonings, can't drive, work, walk without a man down the street.

I realize you are probably suffering from mental illness so I'm bracing myself for any personal attack with profanity you will launch at me as a result.

Why this comparative-religion BS? Oppression of women goes on worldwide and among all religions, including among "Christians" here in the U.S. who push and propagandize for male patriarchy and make no secret of it. You have to admit that the patriarchal system is based on the presence or absence of a penis.

This "oh, the Muslims are worse" is a raw attempt at deflection. If Muslim women wish to join marches for women's equality wherever they occur, this is their prerogative. I see that women across the world are on the march.

BTW: the practices you seemingly object to are from primitive tribal areas in places like Pakistan and in Africa. They are not products of Islam per se, but originate in tribal customs. This blend of religion and tribal customs goes on all over, including in the U.S.

How typical your diatribe, and how typically sad that Old Lady and Coyote said "thank you", not apparently seeing the difference between whatever "patriarchy" you all cry about in the US and honor killings, stonings, burka wearing and whatnot.

It just makes feminism into an utter joke.

I am not a feminist, just a woman. It is interesting though, that the OP asked a question and when a woman did answer it was immediately shot down as lies by men who are definitely NOT feminists and had no business trying to answer the question anyway.
There are many, many women fighting for the safety and the equality of Muslim women. They are risking their lives, some of them, to educate the girls and help the women who have been abused. Women in this country and all over the world are trying to stop FGM. What do you think Michele Obama's tour in Africa was all about? Women will not be free until they can be educated. One step at a time.

I am a woman too. I would not credit WOMEN entirely for the
fight to educate women and end FGM-----actually there are lots of
men involved. All together there are really not a whole lot of either.
As to the CURRENT USA feminism thing------it is chock full of
EGO AND BULLSHIT------and BEYOND ME-TOO......... more like
ME ME ME AND ONLY ME and MY POLITICS

Yes, there is a lot of ego and bullshit floating around, Rosie. And of course there are good men involved in trying to help women with no voice in other countries. Good people. However, the question of this thread was why FEMINISTS are not spending all their energy on changing that culture and religion rather than their own problems in their own backyard. That was the question. So that was my response.
We all have the tendency to spout our own politics, though. I don't see what your point is there.
