Dammit. Can't believe I made such a rookie mistake with Mr. Dubois's name.

Still, eliminate both Islam and Christianity, Judaism, too, and the calc remains, "Your own patriarchy is going to be better for you, girl, than some other girl's patriarchy will be."

Indeed, sir. Doesn't matter whether it's Christian or Judaic or Chinese or Zulu patriarchy- ultimately, a woman is better off under the patriarchy she was born in than within any other.

Indeed. Strong husbands and fathers who raise strong sons are the single best guarantor of a strong culture that believes in protecting its women. Of course, the precise form of that protection varies from culture to culture. Islamic culture believes that its treatment of women amounts to "exalted respect", whereas those of us without multi-culti blinders on see that they treat their women more or less like cattle.

It's actually a good catch there, that Islam isn't reform Christianity. I think the ignorant west (Lord, forgive us our redundancies) presumes that, since it came after Christ it must be reform Christianity but, of course, to anyone who actually looks, it's really reform Judaism.

Still, eliminate both Islam and Christianity, Judaism, too, and the calc remains, "Your own patriarchy is going to be better for you, girl, than some other girl's patriarchy will be."

Moreover, and closely related, Kurdish women still remember the lesson Western women have forgotten, that women who fail to raise their men to believe themselves to be superior orders of being become the property of women who do…and of their sons.”
