What facts does doc produce? Every statement I've made is backed up by professionals in those varying field. Doc simply makes left wing remarks and you nut jobs clap your hands to like retards at a clown party. Just because it makes a great story and even though you really want it to be true doesn't mean its fact.
I mean look at this idiotic statement
This is a product of left wing propaganda whose sole purpose is to make America look bad. Let look at two of the largest populated countries in the world, China and India. BOTH are patriarchal societies and in India a woman doesn't even have the right to decide who she can marry and whether or not she can have more children or not. China is extremely patriarchal mostly driven by the Confucianism and Taoist belief structures. Lets move on to Muslim Culture. This should seem pretty freakin obvious to anyone but I guess to Doc you really got to break this down. Muslims do not allow their woman to receive an education, in fact it is a serious violation of Muslim law. Woman often cannot obtain divorces, they must wear religious garments to cover their shape (what you call a traditional garment woman call oppressive), they have no rights after a divorce in retaining their children, etc etc etc. God I could go on for days but you get the point. Doc talks straight out of his ass everything and I mean everything he says is full of half-assed psuedo intellectual bullshit.
Ah, and so you return. What a surprise. But, I guess you aren't talking to me, just responding to my comment in third person, that makes sense.
Muslim:
-Women keep their maiden name when married.
-Their possessions before marriage remain theirs, they don't go to the husband or get shared.
-The right to provide for the family is of the man (like is common in the U.S. to) and depending on where, women can work also.
-Women can obtain divorces if it is in their marriage contract.
-The requirement for the religious garments is different in different countries. Men also have required dress, it is not just unique to women.
-In modern Islamic countries women are encouraged to become scholars. To say this is a violation of Muslim law is absurd. When Muhammad created Islam the education status of women improved greatly.
China is communist..Women can get the same education and the same jobs as men. Did you not realize Confucianism was done away with under the communist rule? Obviously they couldn't just remove it right away, but through the generations since communist rule, Confucian ideals have waned.
"A record number of women serve in the U.S. Congress. Currently, 13 women (10 Democrats and 3 Republicans) serve in the U.S. Senate, while 61 women (43 Democrats and 18 Republicans) hold seats in the House of Representatives. Four of the Senators and seven Representatives are serving their first terms in Congress."
"The Central Committee and all local governments have implemented the rules and regulations in the Law on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of Women, which has resulted in many major achievements in selecting and training women cadres. There currently are 15 women ministers and vice-ministers in the State Council's 29 departments, and 56 women leading cadres in China's 31 provincial, autonomous regional and municipal governments. There were 593 women leading cadres by the end of 2001in China's 393 cities - including regions, prefectures and leagues - and 3,888 women leading cadres in the nation's 2,809 counties - including towns, districts and banners (administrative division of county level in the Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region)."
