#1 Conservative Merkel takes a stance that helps in the WoT, and in the process wins over the feminists. Count this as a two-fer.

When multiculturalism and feminism clash (and it usually does) on what side do the whores fall upon? By not uttering a single peep in opposition to female genital mutilation, they declare themselves the inferiors to male feminist bigots.

#2 Whores,Ptah? Are you equating that to 'feminists'?

Uncalled for IMO, especially in Merkel's case. And in the case of many women who comment here as well.

#3 I've said it before: Forced and/or arranged marriages run counter to concepts that Darwin advanced about evolution and natural selection. In other words, if you are the Turkish equivalent of Sean Connery you do NOT want to get stuck to some 300 hundred pound, mustachioed sweat hog. Conversly, if you are the Arab equivalent of - oh, I dunno - Raquel Welch you do NOT want to get stuck with some 100 pound, drooling, buck toothed, bald headed moron. It gets even worse if said moron is your cousin which I understand is often the case in these arrangements. It's bad for the gene pool. Now, try to tell that to a good Muslim who would argue that Darwin blasphemed. We still have people in our own culture who have trouble with Darwin. But science is not on their side. Three cheers for Chancellor Merkel.

#4 i actually took 'whores' to be a subset rather than the entire category...

still likely a poor choice in wording.
