Quoting Badiabdancer74:

Femme, you showed some kindness and decency toward me and you didn't disagree with me on one thing.

Quoting catwoman:

Thank you Badia, I also appreciate your kindness.

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

OH NO...quick say something nasty!

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

If I knew how to make those cool smilies I would send you flowers too.

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

I agree with what you said about speaking out against human injustice. Maybe we need to be more specific in what we are bashing in the future. Maybe there can be clubs formed from this?

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

You guys will bash whatever I add, I imagine even this.

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

I think Catwoman at least does it in a way that is understandable.

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

There is a divide between what is practiced and what religions are supposed to be, that is what I said. Religions in practice support bad things sometimes. My point is this is something that is not unique to Islam. This is something that happens when humans try to follow a religion.

Quoting thehandsom:

and about the concept of that word 'bitch' by the east, I would not rely on that. It is better if you dont either.
Because that is not what they mean..

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

Wow, that was harsh. I didn't say I understood Islam,

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

I haven't done the 3 things I said to completely understand a religion. I know more about Islam from the family that owns the Moroccan Restaurant where I have danced for 5 years.

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

So living in a country with a religion gives you the right to bash the people who practice it???

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

You can bash rape or subjugation of women or women as 2nd class citizens, these issues are cross-cultural and across religions.

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

By the way. I have studied Oriental Dance long before I went to Turkey. LONG before I met my fiance. True, I did mock some dancers I saw in Turkey in 2 of my videos. I consider it really rooted in Egypt anyway in Raks Sharqi, where I first went to study.

Quoting Badiabdancer74:

Why are you going to make a fight instead of talking about one of the other points I brought up?

Quoting catwoman:

BTW, in the east, a "bitch" is basically a woman who is free and doesn't need a man to be happy. In that sense they are right to say that 80-90% of western women are like that.

Quoting thehandsom:

Quoting femme_fatal: Quoting thehandsom: Quoting catwoman: yes - men in that post ARE described as animals, which they ARE in most muslim countries Well.. A bit exaggeration..is it NOT? like 80-90%? when the religion allows to beat women and when it looks as if a woman was a half human?
