Hot Air » Blog Archive » Blogging the Qur’an: Sura 4, “Women,” verses 17-34:

"Wife-beating exists in all cultures, but only in Islam does it enjoy
divine sanction. Amnesty International reports that “according to the Pakistan
Institute of Medical Sciences, over 90% of married women report being kicked,
slapped, beaten or sexually abused when husbands were dissatisfied by their
cooking or cleaning, or when the women had ‘failed’ to bear a child or had given
birth to a girl instead of a boy.”Aisha herself said it"


That might be the saddest part of all, that the womyn think they deserve it.
