Basswipe,don't you think you should understand a cultures tradition before you pass judgement on it?If you are informed and still find it in you to direspect a tradition you find offensive, then at least you know why they do it. Knowledge is power amigo.

Thanks for the lesson. Genital mutilation, arranged marriages and child slavery are some other traditions shared by our allies too. I find those archaic and medival practices as well. I guess I'm uncultured. Anyone know if Churchills kids are married? Nah, why would we care about the off spring of one of englands greatest leaders? We have the queen!
