Edited to add why would you feel it necessary to make such a point that the Muslim world DOES have women protesters/feminist groups?

Has anyone said that there aren't any? You seem to be presuming that DUers aren't aware of, or are disputing, this fact?

Links are as good as calling them out. Luminous Animal May 2013 #25

Nope. Not true. Its documented facts and not calling them out by name. Just link the threads. nt riderinthestorm May 2013 #26

Um, no because it has happened to me. With juries, you take your chances. Luminous Animal May 2013 #28
