		<description><![CDATA[The funniest shit is that rapes like this are obviousl rare.
actually rape is entirely rare HERE in Saudi Arabia, because it happens 40 times per a million population. while in countries like France, it occurs 1000s of times per 100000!!!!
for those who say statics don&#039;t matter, but (quality, whatever), I bet rape in the US(for example) isn&#039;t about: &quot;I&#039;ll make you do things, and if you don&#039;t I&#039;ll rape you&quot;. no, it&#039;s like: &quot;I&#039;ll kill you if I don&#039;t rape you&quot;.
and for those fucking moron pigs who came here just to swear... FUCK YOU! either be more respectful or you better go suicide sticking a stick in your ass.
aside of that, do you know what encourages rape? believe it or not, it&#039;s the &quot;boobies&quot; you&#039;re looking at every day on the STREET. 
this is our &quot;secret&quot;, which is coverring our women with a veil. 
now don&#039;t come at me and say: this is stupid.
no, saying that would make YOU stupid, because negating me means OBVIOUSLY that you want to either: RAPE, or JERK OFF(masturbate).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Abdurrahman, thanks for abusing statistics. The total quantity isn&#039;t what matters. The frequency is. What matters is not the total number of rapes but how common rape is. Now, you could if you wanted to try make a minimally decent argument point to data showing that Saudi Arabia has a low per a capita rape rate (see http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_rap_percap-crime-rapes-per-capita for example). However, that ignores that a) much of what we label rape isn&#039;t considered rape in Saudi Arabia or many other Islamic countries b) Many Saudi women will not report rapes because it makes them seen as damaged goods along with c) many rape claims get turned around with the women treated as if she had had sex outside marriage.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Abdurrahman:

From the Washington Post (6/19/2006):

&quot;The number of rapes per capita in the United States has plunged by more than 85 percent since the 1970s, and reported rape fell last year even while other violent offenses increased, according to federal crime data.

This seemingly stunning reduction in sexual violence has been so consistent over the past two decades that some experts say they have started to believe it is accurate, even if they cannot fully explain why it is occurring.&quot;

When you factor in the number of statutory rapes which are consensual though prohibited, the figures drop more. The US ranks 9th according to the UN in the number of reported rapes per capita but still does better than other westernized countries like Australia and Canada.  

So while this is a serious problem we have done something about it and the trends are positive.  Contrast that with our more chauvinistic Muslim brothers where rape is thought by some as a birthright and tacitly sanctioned by the authorities, rather than punished crime and you begin to see the distinction the professor is drawing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[pointing in shock at the attitude expressed by young saudi men should only be done as part of a larger discussion of how &quot;who me?&quot; sexism practiced in the united states sets the bar.

until the equal rights amendment passes in the united states, and is enforced, let&#039;s all just stfu about the treatment of women in other countries.  especially when the governments in those other countries were &quot;installed&quot; by previous american administrations.]]></description>
