Survey Says! 71% Of Pakistani Men Say It’s OK To Beat The Crap Outta Their Woman
Not if your wife is Shirley Hemphill, she’ll kick your ass.
Lahore, Dec 11: A recent survey on violence against women in Pakistan has found that 71 per cent males consider slapping and beating women as justifiable.
According to the survey, 80 per cent of women are victims of domestic violence in society.
Addressing a seminar on the occasion of the International Human Rights Day at the Punjab Law College (PLC) here, participants said that sustained and collective efforts were needed to end domestic violence in Pakistan.
“Islam and the country’s legislation give equal rights to women. The only need is to implement Islamic rules and legislation, and create awareness in the society about women’s rights.”
Presentations were given on women rights in Islam, the Women Protection Bill and sexual harassment scenario in the country.
Government College University Clinical Psychology Department director Dr Zahid Mehmood was the chief guest.
WRCP Country Director Omer Aftab and Punjab Law College principal Dr Hadia Awan were among the speakers, the Daily Times said.
Dr Mehmood highlighted the psychological aspects of violence against women, and said it was a global problem, but of a different magnitude in Pakistan.
He claimed that the ratio of violence against women was comparatively higher in Pakistan.
Aftab said that women’s rights was declared as a human right in 1993 at the Vienna Conference on Human Rights.
The mindset of the male member of the society should be changed, he added.

Ya think?
Af if there is any doubt how barbaric they are.
The saddest day was when Islam was inflicted upon the world.

. One must (how do you say) jar it loose. 
One would think they would find a better method. 
All kidding aside, this is based on their religious beliefs, so good luck appealing to their higher principles of right and wrong

December 11th, 2007 at 9:12 pmOnce again, where are the feminists? I guess if you aren’t an American women they don’t give a fuck.
December 11th, 2007 at 9:37 pmThe American feminists don’t give a crap about American women either - unless they are crazy liberals wanting to get rid of unwanted pregnancies and such . . .
December 11th, 2007 at 9:42 pmI’m amused that this is a surprise to some. It’s the same here in India, but in India there was a supporting statistic of about 40% of the women agreeing with it as well.
Sexual harassment here is called Eve-teasing and is very common if you dare ride a train or bus. So is throwing acid in the face of girls who jilted some wee-wanker over here. But of course we westerners have SO much to learn from them…..

I could almost pity the poor goatfucker who tried to mess with her on the street. I have very vivid memories of a short, lead cored club she carried in her purse.
We have a name for them, but it’s about as politically incorrect as it gets.

“Oh, Sameer! Flowers! How sweet!”
“Yeah, now sniff them, bitch, before I strangle you!”

Lets see.
A religion that promotes domestic violence.
A religion that promotes killing
A religion that promotes war
Religion no - Cult - yes.
