No one seems to see that by allowing an OPPRESSIVE group to rent a place wherein their oppression of women can more easily take place we are ENABLING that group. We are CONTRIBUTING to the oppression of Muslim women, honor killings and all of their other 7th century rules about female property.
It's like renting a hall to group of wife beaters. Would we consider that ok as long as they paid a fee? Can we imagine a woman calling a meeting hall...? " Hello, my best friend and I are forbidden by our husbands to talk to strangers or be seen by them, but they said we can leave the house if we can rent your facility and you black out the windows and not let any other humans in. Please rent us the place, we're prisoners otherwise."
--and the reply...? " Sure, we'll even barricade the place if your husbands would like. " $375 for the day."
- or would it be more like..." You're being held prisoner by your husbands? That's illegal, lady. I'll call the police for you- where are you?"
It's that these Muslim women don't DARE swim anywhere else. And here we are, for the price of rental, giving the cult that is oppressing them an easy way to do it.
Maybe if we didn't ENABLE the backwardness of Islam in this country, the 'moderate Muslims' here would feel more secure about finally saying 'NO' and breaking those bonds.
