facts on women

Women in cultures have been very abused and stigmatized with bad luck and superstitions. In every culture we see women humiliated and taken by granted that fate made them just as they are : witches , bad luck dispensers and waste humans.

Before Islam, Arabs used to burry their daughters alive as they were frightened of being ashamed of having a girl not a boy. There were many stories of fathers burying their daughters alive so that they live with honor. It was a type of honor killing to preserve dignity of the tribe man at that era.

There are other practices to preserve the so called honor. In some African traditions, girls are tortured and may be led to death by circumcision. The reason is because families want to preserve honor and in this way , they think, that they protect their honor. The girls are placed, or rather buried in a hole in a dusty land. This hole will be linked to another hole by a channel to stream camel dung and sawdust into the girl's hole, as the myth says it relieves the pain caused by circumcision wounds. After that, they tie the girl's legs so that she can not move and can not itch on the place of pain in her body. So another practice that humiliate females as it is believed that they are source of dishonor.

We claim to be more tolerant with women and precisely more accepting to the fact that they can be great partners, but I guess a lot of " the advocates " for this idea from the other gender still need to comprehend a very important issue about women. Women are not tools , puppet dolls nor entertainers. Women are not shadow creatures nor passive persons. Women are not appetizers nor food . They are not bad luck , nor they are charmed . They are only meant to be beside males to fight together , build this life and be successors on earth .
