Ismalura: It seems that the desciplining will go on without consideration of our mixed feelings.

This made me LOL ! I swear I once asked some one the exact some question after he argued that the beating is good for reserving the marriage. Let us just say he could only speak in tongues and quickly changed the topic never to start it again.

 

If it is about the betterment of the marriage they should take turns beating each other up when one of them steps out of line.

Can children discipline their parents?

just asking you the same question that the next poster asked; are women children?

[Jamelia]

Lol...

 

Apparently a husband and wife relationship is the same as that of a Parent and Child....

 

Of course we need the occasional dhirbaaxo when we get too close to an open fire....

^Perish the thought.

 

Maadeey,waan kuu sugeynaa. You owe us an explaination. Are women like children?

[NGONGE]

^^ If a man beats up another man the law would treat it as assault and follow the usual procedures. But if a man beats up a woman, she can get injunctions, get rehoused and have a thousand and one governmental bodies and charitable organizations running around trying to fix her problem. Guess what other group of people get treated in a similar way.

Women are not like children. Women have different roles than men, and that is the only difference between the two. The natural disposition of women is to nurture; rear children, make home, and provide emotional function to harmonize the family. Men contribute and excel in different ways or at least are well positioned to play different roles to achieve similar goals. They would be supposedly good at providing security and bread…in other words they supposed to assume leadership capacity.

 

That is the 30 thousand feet view. But the relationship between the two is not as binary as the above generalization may imply.

 

Can women discipline men? Yes they sure could. But that discipline may not come in a physical fashion.

 

Beating your wife is a primitive thought. Only failed men resort to such a tactic.

 

Ps. I have seen women who beat their men. One guy I know took a lot of beating from his reer miyi, ignorant wife, who perhaps thought if she does not get beat, she may as well play the role and do the beating herself. The marriage did not last long.

Not surprising that most Nomads concur that physical discipline (i.e. violence of any sort) visited upon a dignified, grown woman is "barbaric", "bronze-age", "chauvinist", and "primitive". Of course, the medieval authors who originally counseled men to use physical discipline and violence were not too big on women's rights or, for that matter, civility. Thank goodness for moral progress.

 

No need to elicit a response from the sheepish Wadaad. His is a case pious androcentrism.

Prometheus , stop the swagger plz.

 

Apparently you are resolved to misunderstand the ‘medieval authors’ for whom you created this thread to dig at them. This is typical of the rejectionist-front you seem to represent, the educated bigots who burry their prejudice in these sort of discussions succeed only to bring their literalist side to the fore. The sacred texts provided legal, spiritual, and social guidelines in big strokes, and the learned communities labored to elucidate, and draw practical applications from it. And the man who embodied it all proved that genuine, authentic implementation of the sacred teachings is unimpeachable. There he was having nine wives, leading a life full of harmony that was characterized with stability and profound intimacy. The emancipation of women folk western liberal icons celebrate today, had indeed begun long before by the very man you seem to have cowardly charged to be the counselor of violence toward women! Only if you bring yourself to employ a little decorum and eject a measurable degree of intellectual honest in what you write, you would be that much credible awoowe…
