There was this discussion, must find it, that was talking about how badly educated women in Islam are often the most extremist believers of Islam and are showing similar traits to Stockholm Syndrome, being that there is a fair bit of ill treatment from birth to marriage to women. Clitoral circumcision, arranged marriages, lack of access to education, spousal abuse, not seen equal in the eyes of Sharia law, etc..
And on, and on, and on, and on.

But, I find it EVEN MORE repulsive that it is even CONSIDERED to be a hate crime to speak out against how Islam treats women.

You and I are on the same page in this regard. Which is kind of humbling.
