All I can say is, if your Muslim man truly loves you. He would not expect you to convert to his religion.
If his religion forbids him to marry you unless he gets you to convert, then maybe he has to make a decision if his religion is number 1 or are you, his potiential future wife no. 1.
If I were these women, I would only marry the guy if he loves me enough to leave his religion.
I know some Muslim men may use this same "If you love me enough, you will convert to Muslim" nonsense, but it is not the same. If you turn Muslim as a woman, you might have to give up ever having a pet dog, or things like bacon.
If he marries you against his religious rules, without forcing you to convert, what does he really lose? Nothing, so he broke a tiny rule about marrying a non-muslim women, what's going to happen to him? His god going to strike him dead? Come on.... He can carry on practising everything else about his religion if he wanted to. That's his choice.
A man should only love you for exactly what you are. Expecting you to change your religion is wanting to mold you to his expectations, it's not true love.

Hi!I am a Muslim.And a Muslim man can marry a Christian or a Jewish woman and the women dont need to change their religion,becoz Christians and Jews are "People of the Book".A Muslim man can marry a non-Muslim woman,but a Muslim woman cannot marry a non-Muslim man.Hope,it clears your doubts,Cheers!

I know many women who converted to Islam before marrying Muslim men. Some of them convert because they truly believe in the religion, while some do it because it's a requirement to marry a Muslim man. It is the man's responsibility to educate his wife about Islam, and whether she turns out to be a good Muslim or not, it is because of his guidance or lack of it.

the reason for forcing women to convert is to ensure that any children will be brought up to join the ranks of Al-Queerda and Osama bin Liner.
By sending these kids to mohommedan schools, they'll be taught to accept EVERYTHING a mullah tells them, without question, much like the Japanese military before and during WWII. Look where that got them!

firstly,according to religious aspect,a christian woman who marries a muslim man,can remain to her religion,it's total freedom,i am talking according to Islam,muslim man can marry a christian or jewish woman,as the prophet's (either they call him God)according to islam r prophets,n Islam allowes to marry to them.
but to ask me,i'll say they better handle this prob b4 to avoid later drastic consequences ,which may arose if any one of them give importance to his or her religion.
true christians n islam not too far off from each other,christian who accept Jesus as prophet n not God.as no human can b God,n God can't die(as they say)

The Dalai Lhama believes we should remain within the religion we were born into.
This is what I agree with.
In so many divorces, the muslim man is inclined to take the child/ren. Witness the latest Scottish case!

opposed to many beliefs, Christian women Should never be forced to leave their religion, even if they married Muslim men, although i know some women who have, they do it out of their own will.

Most of the people who have answered this question are so thick. Your children are now slaves???? Grow up will you, and read a book. Stop listening to stupid media hype and grow a brain. It will do you good.
There are of course pushy Muslim men that want their women to do whatever they say, but the same goes for Christians, Jews etc. You get bad eggs and good eggs in every culture.

I changed my religion because i though I was in love with an Egyptian woman. But weather man or woman if Jesus is deep in your heart no matter what you do, deep inside you will always be Christian.
