Women fighters in Israel predated the women PKK fighters and they helped build a Democracy. You should review the history of women inside the Soviet Union before extolling the virtues of Marxism. You should also find some other way to inform your worldview besides Hollywood.

  1. Marxism is not virtuous - I never suggested it was in my post to you.
  2. Neither Le Femme Nikta nor Hollywood are a primary source for my world view.
  3. The point of discussing women's roles was to do with their tribal circumstance which makes them vulnerable to organizing under bad ideas and to rhetorically ask - where are the good ideas in their environment.

Do you have any other suggestions as to what I should do?

Sure:

1. Don't use a Marxist woman as an example of the way women can remove the yoke of Islam. There are better examples.

2. If Hollywood isn't your primary source for your worldview then don't cite some obscure Hollywood pap as your example of how women can be liberated.

3. Where are the good ideas in their environment? Even a moderate Islamic govt like the one in Malaysia offers women opportunities they won't find in the radicalized Islamic societies. The answer for Muslims can be found within their own religion if they look for it. Unfortunately, the trend is in the other direction.
