Ah and I guess "goat" is not "greatest of all time" huh?

No one calls his wife a goat. They made that one up. Western media is sick

It's important for us as English speakers not to get too caught up in the direct translations of these words, as context is key w language
-
I am a Pakistani, my mother tongue is Pashto (Afghani language), we'd consider calling our wives goats an insult. Trust me, this is fucked.
-
I'm not implying that these aren't insulting words or that these women aren't being abused, but that we shouldn't whitewash their experience
-
I know there are cases of whitewashing in western media at times but I can tell you this one isn't.
-
Look, I don't deny that the treatment of these women is abhorrent. My point is that it is not the job of the west to police other cultures.

Shame on Afghan Muslim men for using such demean words to call their own wives. Where are Educated Muslim women hiding??
-
Disgusting. Women won't protest because girls never go to school. Taliban has kept them illiterate so that they remain submissive.
-
Uh no one had called me these names. Especially goat. It's the Western media making this shit up
-
Goat has a special place with respect for physical pleasure in Islam..& it's still on. We can't blame Western media for all silly things.
