I cannot warn people too strongly against Islam. We call this country the land of inconsistency and hypocrisy. I could quote many more ladies, including some of the rulers wives. They struggle deeply when their husband takes another wife, even though they have known all their lives that Islam allows multiple marriages and expects total obedience to her husband from a woman. Muslim men apparently cannot see a difference between respect and obedience, and feel disrespected if their wives make any decisions without consulting them.
Young women feel that they are treated like brainless children.
Many learn emotionally unhealthy patterns of manipulation in order to get legitimate needs met. Their children learn from them those patterns. Manipulation, instead of direct communication, appears deeply imbedded in the culture, even among men. I'd better stop.
