I understand that much of the Qu'ran is misinterpreted by the western world. But it seems as though it is misinterpreted by many muslims as well. For example; women are equal to men. Women should stay "modest". Although I don't agree on the basis of the "modesty", its certainly not meant to be evil. Why have so many muslim men gone out of control with this?! Refusing a woman's right to pray in a Mosque? Making her dress only to show her eyes? Preventing her from education and work?? The arranged marriages when the Qu'ran clearly states that a marriage is invalid if the woman doesn't consent? The rapes, beatings and stoning of girls and young women?!? This is not just 20 or 30 muslim men here, more like hundreds of thousands of muslim men who behave this way.
