Another thing that always infuriates me is when a woman is referred to as having been "dishonored."  SHE WAS RAPED.  Please use the proper term.


I understand the concept of izzat and the burden of that being on the woman.  Obviously that needs to be changed.  Let's start with this simple change in terminology.  The criminal who RAPED her is dishonored.  She is guilty of nothing and her honor remains intact.


A small thing maybe, but a huge change in attitude.kaurhug
