I am caged in this corner

full of melancholy and sorrow ...

my wings are closed and I cannot fly ...

I am an Afghan woman and so must wail.

yoo-hoo! you're undoubtedly on your way to heaven by encouraging vulgarity, fornication and adultery_ and then depriving vain and gullible women of their rights to have babies by inculcating ideas of contraception in them... moreover provoking them to bring up fatherless children. how sound is your structure of society! and how horrendous is your picture of 'heaven'. congrats, you sure deserve a round of applause for the security you provide to your mothers, sisters and daughters! g'bye.

if all these women could just unite and stand up for themselves against those putrid males who are the root cause of all this only then do they have a slight chance of winning. i doubt ALL men in these countries are wife beating, conservative morons. there has to be a good few with common sense..

@zakiboy100

maybe you should watch this before you open you mouth in defence of islam and your unholy book the quran

"How Islamic Republic Rape and Torture Inocent Girls 1 of 2"

part 2 is really telling of how cruel islam treats its women may GOD have mercy on the women in islam because ill-allah hasn't, and then watch this "IT'S OK TO HAVE SEX SLAVES (ORIGINAL SUBTITLED)"

[discoverngc]

@zakiboy100 It is Islam the fault of this. You ignorant Muslim.

Islam even sanctions wife beating, shame on you to defend this cult of death!

[zakiboy100]

all you people seem to do is blame islam

so its quite obvious that you have not read the quran, and do not have a clue what islam teaches about women and how to treat them

dont blame islam. blame ignorant people

Islam & "ALL" Religion's are the true Evil, (study human history)! "ANY" Religion with power is dangerous, evil, corrupt & repressive, (study human history)! Religion is a mental illness, (study human history)! ie: If your 30 years old and normal, but you still believe in the easter bunny, Your Nuts! But if you believe the bible is real, Your Not Nuts! "WHAT"?? Come On, Wake Up, its 2011 not 935!! Don't be stupid, enough already!! True peace and human advancement is no more religion, period!
