    Not so strange considering it's the same for ''sexual consent'', the moral police must have their hands full with those experimenting nine year olds...

    How contradictory...

    In Pakistan, there was the well publicized Mukhtar Mai case, were a woman was gang raped on order of her tribe. There, the village imam condemned the rape and told her to press charges for the execution of the rapists. But only after significant pressure did the courts actually convict the men. Well, these places are the most chauvinistic on Earth...

    *I hate using Wikipedia, especially now that they would not go for a 'Gah' article, but it is well documented and comprehensive*

    However, the age of sexual consent for girls under Sharia law is nine, and furthermore, rape is very hard to prove in an Iranian court.

    "Men's word is accepted much more clearly and much more easily than women," according to Iranian lawyer and exile Mohammad Hoshi.

    "They can say: 'You know she encouraged me' or 'She didn't wear proper dress'."
    Isn't that just...lovely.

    How very terrible. If there is evil, then this is part of it.
