Obedient wives club: Good sex to keep hubby happy, curb social ills

A new organisation is stirring up controversy in Malaysia.

[The Obedient Wives Club] launched on Saturday, says it can cure social ills such as prostitution and divorce by teaching women to be submissive and keep their men happy in the bedroom. "Islam compels us to be obedient to our husband. Whatever he says, I must follow. It is a sin if I don't obey and make him happy," said Ummu.

Just wondering, but is female submission the only thing that makes men happy and keeps societies afloat? You hear this argument again and again all over the world, and the saddest thing is when you hear it coming from women.

So you're saying that both statements are equally blanket statements about men and women?

If so then how is your claim that "anything men do is their wive's fault" is a blanket statement about men relevant?

Personally, I would tend to think that blanket statements involving two groups generally say more about the group that is in the dominate role in the statement.

I think TByte's been given enough playtime and it's getting out of control with so many sub-discussions going on, so I've decided to close this discussion. It really has become very tedious and I'm sure we've all got better things to do with our time.
