Who'd be female under Islamic law?
Here's an article on Islam and Women. By an Islamic woman. Which is SO NICE, because there's so fucking few people - especially women - who bitch out Islam. Of course, I kind of expect someone is going to kill her now. Because, as Ayaan Hirsi Ali can probably tell her, That's How It Goes.

I defend Muslims persecuted by their enemies and their own kith and kin. I pray, fast, give to charity and try to be a decent human being. I also drink wine and do not lie about that, unlike so many other "good" Muslims. I am the kind of Muslim woman who maddens reactionary Muslim men and their asinine female followers. What a badge of honour.

Female oppression in Islamic countries is manifestly getting worse. Islam, as practiced by millions today, has lost its compassion and integrity and is entering one of the darkest of dark ages.


The full article.

Good article.

I am currently wrestling with what I feel about Sarkozy's proposed ban on the full-body and full-face niqaab in public spaces.

Religious issues are the only ones that bring out the right wing asshat in me. I like the ban idea. The issue for me is whether or not the women will even be allowed a little bit outside if they can't wear it.

Bad art brings out the right wing asshat in me. I think the ban won't help women, but will harm them even more by forcing them to stay inside.

A bit like saying banning guns won't help gunshot victims, just make sure they get stabbed instead.
