In-Laws

Re: In-Laws

Thank you for proving my point NomiCA...guys have the same feelings...and apparently they feel these things 100 times more because........................................................................

They're men? Thats why?

The last time I checked, it was not more expensive to raise a man than a woman.

The last time I checked, men arent harder to give birth to.

The last time I checked, men dont take 10 months instead of the typical nine in a mother's womb.

The last time I checked, it wasnt cheaper to send a daughter to school.

The last time I checked.................emotions dont run any differently for men or women.

The last time I checked, punishments werent different for man and woman in Islam.

No, they dont feel it a hundred times more and if they do...I would like for you to lead a fruitful discussion showing us how.

Re: In-Laws

naah....thanks.....i know what 'fruitful' lead to...

Re: In-Laws

^ I didnt think your response was going to be much different from that...

Re: In-Laws

yup you know everything beforehand :wink:

anyways…i didn’t read all the replies before i posted that…maham said the same things i wanted to say…so no point repeating same things again..

BTW why you guys always get so personal,worked up and condascending? :smack:

Re: In-Laws

Not married yet.

I think they do. Agreed with the rest of your points but this.

Re: In-Laws

I dont think anyone has gotten personal at all.

Here is the thing:

When you tell a human being (be it man or woman) that their feelings for their loved ones are only a tenth of what you have for your loved ones…I do not know what you’re hoping for…a hug?

How does this sound to you NomiCA:

Men care for their loved ones way more than women do. They owe their parents much much more than women do because they’re men and due to their gender are entitled to much more reward in Islam as well. Doesnt Islam say that if parents raise two men as morally upstanding Muslims, they will be standing next to the Prophet (saw) on the Day of Judgement? Or is that for women? I’m not sure so if someone could shed light on this, I would appreciate it. In fact, women’s parents should disappear into thin air when they get married because Pakistani Islam says so. When a woman gets married, she should change her first name and last name according to the will of The Susraal…because she is now property of The Susraal. Her job now is to do khidmat of The Saas and The Susar. And God forbid if she decides to help her aging and ailing parents…why are they still alive? :slight_smile:

Evils of our society :(

Re: In-Laws

ok.....i will try to explain why i said that....

i didn't mean to say that woman's love of parents is somehow less than a man's.....

the discussion was about 'your MIL is not your mom'.......and you said she can't be your mom..so no need to think like that.........what i see there is a perception of 'bad/evil/good for nothing' MIL......and that sets a negative mindset right from the start.....

if you think of it otherway.....that person is your husband's mom......and if you love your husband why do you have to have a negative mindset right from the beginning?? hence my comment of '100 times' which does not point out to an absolute fact but the perceived attachment men have with their mothers (which many women despise here....

(same goes for guys too...not to think of their MILs as evil)..

and you just started from the 100 times love and ended it on 'she is property of susraal', 'her job is to do khidmat'.....you make it sound like if someone does khidmat it is something absolutely wrong/exploitation or something........it might be true for many cases that things start from a man's love for his mom and then somehow the story ends with 'property of the in-laws'........but you shouldn't believe or give impression that this exact sequence of events happens everytime.....
