Your jumping to too many conclusions and assuming way too mauc, why don't we start over, because 99% of what you assume are my intentions are just wrong. I don't think all middle easterners are abusive. I do think it's a culture where abuse is far more pervasive. I still hold that people should be measured as indeviduals, but I think a woman growing up in that culture is far within her rights to speak generally about that culture, but I guess instead of asking if she's right about her statements we'll argue the use of the word all. When I said "Christian", I wasn't saying that Chritian middle easterners are better, I said that because while I didn't know Batwoman was middle eastern, I did know she was a Christian. Now I haven't even gotten arround to responding to your comments, I've just nicked the surface of correcting the assumptions you based your comments on.
