#4 but we must not judge their customs, like the evil scarf-ban, right, Lex?

#5 Frank G -- you're right: we must not judge, lest we appear arrogant and insensitive. Who are we as big, mean Americans to tell someone they shouldn't get beaten by their husbands?

#6 RN--Good question. For that matter, we haven't determined if Murat is human either!

#7 More than a third of Turkish women believe they deserve to be beaten if they argue with their husbands, deny them sex, neglect children or burn a meal...

Great. So the next time some lefty rag prints a sob story about how we need to send money to help those poor, helpless women in the Middle East with fnancial support of one kind or another, we can say that we are cutting it 39%, based on the number of women over there who like being abused. Sounds like a plan.
