Here Are the Muslim Feminist Voices, Mr. Rushdie!

Fawzia,
Feminist to feminist, scholar to scholar, woman to woman, I want to thank you for pointing out that Muslim women are not the disadvantaged, weak group that the west would like to think we are. Though we face a set of very distinct challenges, we are no more subjected than any group of women, regardless of class, race or relgion.

When I said, ``offer the shrink a banana and what him revert``, I meant you would revert to being the monkey that you are.

You with your filthy mind, on the other hand, read various sexual imagery into it.

Is that because of your own realization of your inadequacy in that department?

Anyway, what is it with calling us Hindians? You have decided to kiss a few other a$$es on the Chowk, it seems.

Binifer,

Thanks honey!:) BTW, Congratulations! Back from the honeymoon ?!

Now its back to business..

Its bad enough that we have to put up with catamites like Jay & Harimou.

Now Saxena is poking his nose in this fight--like a fly whose attracted to sh *t. But thats what he lives for; isn`t it, oinker?:) er..my friend:)...

Now that youre out of that rathole you scurried into; after whatshername blew her stack..welcome to the Hindian gutter. I`m just here for a visit...harimou made me a pimp for him & Jay. Sigh...I never did like being a janitorial shrink anyways.

Any of you guys like a banana?--I got it e-special from Pakistan--beats the hell out of a keralite banana.

Now; if the editors are er..``broad minded`` enough to let this post go through, harimou, say anything; but please please dont whine....

re: Saminashah # 517

No matter how much we may want to hate the United States, comparing this country - in which many of us choose to live - to Afghanistan under the Taliban (and other states following similar ideologies) is absurd, and defeats the very purpose of criticism.

Regards.

Sigalph,

Whether Pollitt was a hippie seems a bit irrelevant. One point she brings up is that there is a considerably large faction of the Republican Party that is extremely conservative and controlling, and that to deceive ourselves that these American conservative elements don`t manifest themselves throughout the world, is folly.

Jay,

{{Pakistan is a country where the highly educated find it so easy to duty bound to dive into gutters at the first opportunity, and shankar, you share this with the pakistanis. For a peroxide yank, the choices may be very limited in profession, what ever be the schooling.}}

Heheh, those Pakistani gutters are far far better than the gutters you & your fellow catamite, harimou reside in.

Ok, seriously, get this into your thick head:

1) Chowk is NOT a popularity contest. I`m not running for any goddamned election here. If you think I`m soliciting ``approval`` from Pakistanis-its your idiotic hang up, not mine. Its kinda like the Pakistani bigots telling Zafar or Faruk that they are trying to score brownie points with Hindians for not slamming India.

2) I speak my mind. Sure, I am vulgar. I`m not apologising for it--EXCEPT if my vulgarity hurts those who I respect on Chowk. Coincidentally, that happens to be quite a few Pakistanis on Chowk--whose views I may not 100% agree with; but whose decency I have come to respect & admire.

Two of them, in particular, tahmed & scout, I know, disapprove of my language. But they are large hearted enough to agree to disagree with me & still accept me as a friend (& brother).

OTOH, I have NO problems calling you & your fellow bigot, harimou, every frikking vulgar name in the book. You see, I HATE the two of you much more than the idiot bigots on the other side. Its because I had the misfortune of being born on the same side of the fence as the two of you & I`m PROUD of the fact that I hate you. What I do LOVE is that the two of you hate me as much as I hate you (hopefully, more than I hate you). Kinda makes me know that I`m always thinking in the way I think is the right way.

3) Y`see, before I came to Chowk, I was very comfortable in my bigotry that Pakistanis were nothing but a bunch of hindu hating losers. (Ok Saxena, I am/was corny & naieve--so sue me).

I credit Chowk for making my bigotry crash & burn. What REALLY opened my eyes is that the BIGGEST m-fers in this subcontinental diaspora on Chowk are hindus like you & harimou.

ANY idiot can criticise & editorialise the problems of the other side. If you have any BALLS, have the courage to criticise what is wrong with India (start with kerala) or about things you dont or didnt like about yourself.

Show some cajones & submit an article to Chowk. (Heck, any idiot can write a better article than I did!). Lets see whether you or harimou have the guts to stand the scrutiny of all, by authoring an article.

Until then, both of you belong in OBL`s harem. And I`ll be PROUD to be your pimp.

Time to bleach my hair....

[Wow I just thought Muslims were terrorists, but Hai Allah they also have these weird sexual traits....]

Ali1, for sure. He actually trolls Chowk looking for gay partners, having been turned down in all the gay bars that he frequents. But please don`t generalize. Tahmed321 was right to warn you though.

Quoting from Fitzroy Maclean`s book ``To The Back of Beyond``, ``In the summer of 1920, after nearly three years of uneasy co-existence with his Bolshevik neighbours, the last Emir of Bokhara, Abdul Said Mir Alim Khan, had at length been dethroned and had fled headlong to the mountains, dropping favourite dancing-boy after favourite dancing-boy in his wake, in the hope of thus delaying the Red Cavalry, to whom, rightly or wrongly, he attributed his own deplorable tastes.`` (page 93)

re saminshah 497

Apparently Katha Pollit hasn`t learnt much since she wrote the `deconstruction` of the welfare queen.

Only a hippie-come-to-the-`90s will compare the brutalization meted by the Taleban with the policy supported by a vast majority of Americans NOT to give a penny of our tax dollars to kill innocent, unborn, kids. Not a penny, not now, not ever.

This must make me look like a loser but I was up all night and didnt get anything done (u know who left a half bottle of u know what in the u know where). Thankfully i was able to sit next to some very studious young men and bla, bla, I think I did okay.

One more killer exam on friday, must memorize 200 questions, very boring...

Peace to u all... And anNy, off the top, don`t ask anyone remotely resembling a pious Muslim for help. Scholars in Islam are ``as important as the clothes on a stripper`` (from Bukhari`s ``Book of the Importance of the clothes on a stripper,`` authentic hadis heard by the brother of the mother of a person who heard muhammed`s great granduncle murmer something in his sleep, Afghani edition, Osama Printing Press).

Imams will feed you all sorts of bullsh1t. The Quran forbids intoxication, not moderate drinking. (religion w/o reason is slavery). Intoxication is forbiden BECAUSE of Y and Z. (making a fool outta yaself, and all the societal ills which come from reckless behavior).

Don`t do Y and Z and youll be safe.

1. Get high at home and

2. Even if its in public, a joint will not make you lose control, though ordinary people will appear beautiful to you, as will rabbits (...dont ask).

(Cant understand why you`re dying to get your hands on 72 female virgins (Insert, your own lesbian joke, cant come up with one right now). I suppose u wouldnt be able to tell the difference after consuming a river of wine, but thats still no excuse...

And samina: Im assuming you all have eachothers mails... Its not earth shattering, though u prolly will not believe it at first. Our styles are so different, you see.

Him: ``you are somewhat mistaken in your assessment, I wish you`d reconsider. Asalamaliakum``

Me: ``You are an idiot, I wish you`d die. Fukoffaliakum.``

Zafar: please, let me handle the 12 headed one. Opereration infinate stupidity will be a long battle. The goal is to root out these sons of b`s wherever they may be. Only I posses a vocabulary vulgar enough to do that.

Zafar,

All of the above...what brilliant plot twists...I want to contribute to some of the dialogue. Also we need a few Indian Hindu and Muslim characters,(to be developed), at least, and some mullahwannabes.Throw in some Cockney OI! boys, get in some dissections of American surburbia (unfortunately, I can tell you about that), some South Asian urbane city men, and Pinky has some radical friends who run the gamut from Annoying PC Person, the International Gang of College Lefties, Witty and Soulful Gay Best Friend and his crew, and Peace Girl Pal Who Has (gasp!) Married Outside the Race...plus how can we get some of the luvely chowkies in this? Or is all that too much? But, yes, we must wait til Drumz Sahib finishes his exams...and actually I have two research papers due next week...this is beginning to sound like a Zadie Smith novel...
