having done a little research into islam, why is it that, although the holy books give women equal rights, and leave it for women to decide on veiling etc, the men have insisted that women wear veils, women walk behind them, women can't go into mosques etc... ie. why are women treated in such a derogatory manner, when the scripture says that women shouldn't be treated in this way? please give scripture references to support your arguements.
please don't answer that this never happens, i've seen the attitude in action... women, in some muslim countries, are treated like 5hit on the sole of mens shoes.... i just want to know why, and what the justification is.
