Sorry, but any culture that even begins to accept this behavior must cease to exist.

'Beat me once a week' says Iranian woman
22 September 2004
An Iranian woman, beaten every day by her husband, asked a court to tell him only to beat her once a week.

Maryam, the middle-age woman, said she did not want to divorce her husband because she loved him.

"Just tell him to beat me once a week ... Beating is part of his nature and he cannot stop it," Maryam told the court.

The Tehran court found the man guilty and banned him from beating the wife, the paper said.

"If I do not beat her, she will not be scared enough to obey me," the husband said.

If you want to see just how screwed up Islam is, check out this collection of websites.

There may be some dead links, but there is quite alot of interesting reading. Many sites are devoted to people leaving or want to leave islam.
