But you are correct in your assertion that I do not think most of the claims of abuse by children of patriocentrics are real abuses. <br /><br />I was thinking of child marriages, mutilation of female genitalia, immolations, and honor killings as real abuses. Would you say that these abuses are the same caliber as the abuses generally endured by children of patriocentrics?<br /><br />I do not see the similarities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7329461720467130079.post-29920786334419543422011-08-14T20:21:07.955-07:002011-08-14T20:21:07.955-07:00Bad translation: The word translated as "rape...Bad translation: The word translated as "rapes" does not mean rape in the traditonal sense of the word.

It seems an awful lot like that. <br /><br />'practice of child marriages and other real abuses'....does this imply that the abuses claimed by children of patriocentricity are NOT real?

I heard someone say once that it is the most merciful thing that can be done since no man will want to marry a woman who's virginity has been taken already.
