Hey Gals, Check This Out - Medical Gender Apartheid Being Enforced In Muslim Countries By Divorce, Murder

Inferior

The logical conclusion to political Islam's pathological hatred of women. Too inferior to become doctors and too dirty to get medical care from men:

The strange traffic patterns might highlight a worrying phenomenon in the Muslim countries where studies indicate large numbers of women refrain from seeking medical attention for feminine diseases for fear of being divorced, generating family stigma or due to Islamic restrictions on seeing male doctors... reluctance evidenced by women needing medical care has resulted in deadly consequences. Breast cancer is the No. 1 killer of women in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, with large numbers dying because they don't seek medical treatment in time...

When women do seek medical care, there have been reported instances in which their husbands pulled them from diagnostic tests because female technicians or doctors were not available. MSNBC reported from Saudi Arabia last October: "One Saudi woman ignored the cancer growing in her breast because she didn't want to risk a referral to a male doctor. Another was divorced by her husband on the mere suspicion she had the disease, while a third was dragged away from a mammogram machine because the technicians were men."...

[In Iraq]... Nongovernmental organizations have warned that female doctors are scarce and male doctors are being intimidated against treating women... at least 22 male gynecologists [have] received threatening letters... "[male] doctors are not allowed to see the private parts of women." She said she knew of two cases in which doctors reportedly were killed... "A message was left near their bodies saying that was the end for any doctor who insists in invading the privacy of Muslim women," Zuhair said.

The preemptive divorce for breast cancer - just in case she might eventually have to see a male doctor - is a nice touch. Not as nice as killing male doctors who dare to provide women with the barest level of medical care. But a nice touch nonetheless (h/t: Jerry).
