Actor Jeff Goldblum is facing backlash for questions he asked a contestant on RuPaul's Drag Race.

During a recent Season 12 episode, guest judge Goldblum asked a Muslim contestant if her religion was “anti-homosexuality” and “anti-woman.”

It appears that Islam merely incorporated the current cultural approach and customs regarding women of that era in the Middle East.

Either they are drugged or they have the philosophy that it will be okay because everything that happens is Allah’s will.

I read some British journalist's account of attending a beheading in Iran (I think I read it here on FR) and he said they were drugged.
