That's because it is. It's all well and good to support diversity of culture, but there is a limit. Any culture that involved sacrificing children on the altar would be wrong (extreme example). Any culture that places less value on a woman's life and independence than a man's is wrong. That's my opinion, and I couldn't care less if people think it makes me culturally intolerant.

*Reeka* stratching her head "how come it says he is from Amsterdam in his profile" *
I understand that it is a cultural difference and I am very tolerant, but wrong thinking is wrong thiking. 9/11 happened due to "religious and cultural differences." You can't just tolerate anything and everything. If women did, we would still be forbidden to become educated smong other things.

Just a small reminder here- please be careful to discuss topics and ideas and not to gang up on one individual who's background or beliefs are different from your own here. Also keep in mind that one individual is not solely responsible for what we may percieve as his/her own culture's 'mistakes' and may or may not even agree a hundred percent with some of those things.
In other words, let's not form a lynch mob. [ 02-10-2003, 03:36 PM: Message edited by: Cloudbringer ]
