I am amazed at how Muslims/Arabs treat women. They keep them covered up so that Muslim men won't walk around with an erection all day long. They don't even have the self control to see a woman's ankle without getting aroused. I'm amazed that they don't keep their camels covered up! In Afghanistan, the Taliban were very cruel against women, but the new regime is not too much better. Throughout Afghanistan, most women are still totally covered up, and very few women are actually being allowed to have an education, especially outside of Kabul. What a backward, ignorant people. How can a society succeed when they don't take advantage of the talents, wisdom, vision and compassion of women? If the stupid, childish, backward treatment of women is due to the teachings of their prophets, then Muslims should stop sitting around all day, picking fleas off of camels, and reexamine their belief system.
