* In many of the Muslim countries, it is not only the woman who have barely any rights, but also the men are treated the same. It is not the religion to which treats women unfairly , but it is the government oppression of men. * People are under the idea that Islam teachings do encourage the oppression of woman, but in fact the teachings of Muhammad enforce men to respect the rights of women. * The Qur’an states ‘woman shall have rights similar to those of men’. But in the west this statement is misinterpreted which shows specific issues and differences.
Refering to food for example, Cato would eat the same food, and even drink the same wine that was provided to his slaves. Cato owned many slaves, and usually bought those prisoners of ears who were young and still capable of being reared and trained. Not one of his slaves ever entered another mans house unless sent there by Cato or his wife, and when any of them was asked what Cato was doing, he always answered that he did not know, which showed the respect that they carried for Cato. A slave of Cato was either to be busy about the house, or to be asleep, and he preferred the sleepy ones, and that those who had enjoyed the gift of sleep were better for any kind of service than those who lacked it. Cato use to lend money also to those of his slaves who wished it, and they would buy boys with it, and after training and teaching them for a year, at Catos expense, would retain for himself, counting to the credit of the slave the highest price bid for his boy by outsiders.
Also do not forget the fact that Saudi Arabia is a religious country . Many people in Saudi Arabia agree that women shouldn’t drive a car because it is so suspicious . They believe this , because in my thinking , Saudi Arabia didn’t developed early like the other countries . If we look to the fact that Saudi Arabia is a Muslim country or an Arabic country as reason to prevent women from driving that’s certainly wrong , because all the other Muslims countries in the Arabic world allow women to drive . But some people with the entrenched mindsets make religion an excuse to prevent driving .It does not say any thing in Qur’an about that .
Similarly, source 3 suggests that women should know their place and not seek for ‘anything higher’. This could be referring to women wanting to be able to voice their opinion by voting or at least having a say in decisions regarding their family, however they were not seen as clever enough to do so. On the other hand, source 1 says that ‘to soften each other’ a man and a woman have to ‘unite’, which could perhaps mean marriage and children. The phrase ‘soften each other’ portrays a couple as equal partners with different, but equally as important, features that make a marriage work. In the same way, source 2 says that because of the differences ‘it is impossible to
Module 4 Answering the Opposition ITT Technical “The Latest from the Feminist Front” What was your initial reaction to Limbaugh’s claim that “feminism was established so that unattractive women could have easier access to mainstream of society?” My initial reaction was that Limbaugh was being disrespectful to women in general. Al women have a right to easier access to society whether they are attractive or unattractive. They are still women and women should be respected as much as men are respected.

Assignment 1a: Beliefs in Society ”Religion is more a cause of conflict than of harmony in society.” To what extent do sociological arguments and evidence support this view? (33 marks) Feminists agree that religion serves to maintain the status quota, however they believe that means maintaining patriarchy. Feminists most religions as patriarchal, meaning that religion is 'male dominated', they also view religion as actively oppressing women in order to maintain patriarchy. Examples of this include Aldridge's (2007) findings in the Qur'an, noting that women are legally inferior to men and lacking the same rights as their husbands. This example can be seen by feminists as maintaining patriarchy in society so that women have less or different rights to men, meaning that men have more freedom to do what they want, while women are observed much more closely.

It just advices women to use the hijab as an act of obedience to God. Secondly, women wearing hijabs become a very visible sign of Islam. While Muslim men can blend easily into any society, Muslim women are often put on the line and forced to defend not only their decision or not to cover their bodies but also their religion. Thirdly, women who use the hijab lose their identity as women because they cannot dress appropriately according to their gender. It is not certain that the hijab frees women from being seen as sexual objects of desire or from being valued for their looks or body shape.
‘Making a Nation out of Words’ Words may seem nondescript but they actually shape the thinking of generations, cultures and in turn nations. Reiteration of such rhetoric phrases which are non-committal for its users, however; they have immense negative connotations for the people they are intended for.
