Comments on: What You Should Know About Women’s Rights In Afghanistan http://anandgopal.com/what-you-should-know-about-womens-rights-in-afghanistan/ Dispatches from Afghanistan Fri, 10 Sep 2010 09:02:29 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7.1 hourly 1 By: habibi http://anandgopal.com/what-you-should-know-about-womens-rights-in-afghanistan/comment-page-1/#comment-6727 habibi Tue, 09 Mar 2010 06:05:52 +0000 http://anandgopal.com/?p=186#comment-6727 Ashraf, salaam, but I'd say you are the example of what is wrong with the middle east. Luckily for them, the West doesn't have to have this debate - their results (economically, socially, politically) speak for themselves. Their future will not be bad at all, as they are dealing (or are trying to deal) with social issues and we are not. Rape is always a crime - again the West already knows this. You are only contributing to the problem. Ashraf, salaam, but I’d say you are the example of what is wrong with the middle east.

When a women says no to sex and a man forces himself on her (husband or not) while she is screaming and crying or silently suffering, this is rape. A woman's body is her own, it is not yours for the taking Ashraf. Ashraf: Marital rape IS real rape.

Since when was the west the example of a morale society? In the west there is much more crime (including REAL rape) than anywhere else in the world. Who said the west could interfere with other peoples lives? Also there is no such thing as rape in marriage. Marriage takes place so a person can have lawful sex, a wife is lawful for her husband so even if he "rapes" her its not a crime. If the west continues to meddle in peoples affairs and act as if they are better then their future will be very bad indeed. What does this have to do with the west?
