Sooner or later, the father in question would have had to get used to the fact that his daughter was a completely different individual than what he wanted or demanded. Cultural communities and religions don't exist in a vacuum.
These cases are getting increasingly common. Just months ago a crazed father (visibly elated as the police escorted him away) tried to mow down his daughter in Scarborough because she dated a non-Tamil boyfriend. For all of you saying
"why did you come here if you don't embrace our lifestyle?" , it's so easy to forget everyone's entitled to own their sytem of beliefs, morals, principles, etc. For first generation newcomers, some people just won't tolerate deviation of their traditions as it's the only sense of stability and security they truly have in a period when they're most vunerable to persecution, unemployment, homelessness, bankruptcy, threat of deportation, etc..
This girl got kicked out of the family home just to satisfy what she felt was her version of normalcy. It's so easy to demonize people of a certain creed, race, culture; the hard part arises when she had no where else to turn but back to an overly conservative father. We shouldn't outright blame cultures clashing for this, but rather learn that latent Islamophobia/anti-Muslim sentiments are still prevalent, forcing our youth to mask their roots and parents in defiance of such discrimination increasingly rebel in taboo behaviours leading upto extremism. As usual it's only after the disaster, people are like "Oh shit, if only I had known!".
The whole Islamic religion is completely mysoginystic.
Religion in general is misogynistic. Man's personal biases impede rationality and selflessness, as such neglecting female perspectives. I'm sure if a woman wrote the Bible similar biases would arise. However religion is not to be taken literally. It's a composite of exegetical allegories, prophecy fulfillment schema, proof-texting, etc. in correspondence with the point-of-view of a few influencing the multitudes.
Brilliant idea. Lets set up two class of citizenships: one, full of mostly whites, that can't be deported and the other, mostly visible minorities, that can. Why hasn't anyone else thought of this? What are our politicians doing? Its time to get the ball rolling and make this a reality!
This guy's point I think, is that no matter how much we want to believe it, non-whites do not get treated the same way as Caucasians. We're a country of immigrants yet one ethnicity is privileged above all others. Look at our house of representatives if you think I'm wrong. A white person can never truly know what it's like to be a minority, in that sense they're lucky.
Pops lost control, not his religion. He had a choice. He made it.
Is it too late to impose unfit parent laws, mandatory vasectomies, psych evaluations before the third trimester?
