Quote From: noranisShe should ask, what would happen to an 18yr old muslim girl, who left her parents home to go live with her boyfriend ? Would his parents allow / tolerate their daughter doing the same as what she has done ? Honor killings still happen.
And she thinks she can raise the children to choose their religion, or even learn about hers - think again.
I have a hard time believing beliefs have changed much in the past 30 years. I recall when I was younger and just out of high school---the young men who came here to go to college from Iran had absolutely no respect for American girls. I know this first hand. They, as a group, do not really like Americans, they use our country to get an education and whatever else they can, they treat American women like whores, and they pretty much have a very low regard for women in general. I have a hard time believing this is not still true of most middle Eastern countries. The attitudes have not changed throught he years, if anything it's gotten worse. People are just more aware now and watch what they say in public about other cultures.
This girl needs to run the other way. This man plans to use her as much as he can get away with and treat her as he pleases. In his country---the other readers who commented are correct. A young girl who takes off from her family to go live unmarried with a man in their culture is considered a whore. "IF" the family is even considering their son marrying this girl---it's to get him or them into the United States, and for no other reason.
