Charming book huh? Well at least the reader is instructed not to beat their wives excessively. :rolleyes:
I can’t imagine being trapped in a marriage with one of these Lotharios. We used to have a lot of wealthy Arab students at my old university. This was before 9/11. They all drove hot sport cars and some of the most gorgeous girls on campus were dating them. Good luck with that ladies. They seemed like nice enough guys at school. I tutored several in computer science classes.
As requested by the OP, this thread will probably fare better in MPSIMS.

Thanks Gukumatz.
Since posting, I googled and confirmed this is a real book for sale. But out it’s of stock. The recent news probably boosted sales a lot.
I may be a stoopid and slow wooman, but my daddy taught me where the nutsack is. I’m all over it. With my bony knee.
Only Arabic men beat women! But the men are rich, so all the pretty girls like it.
Yay, racism! Yay, sexism!
To put this in perspective, a current Cracked article talks about the book To Train Up a Child by Michael and Debi Pearl. That book offers helpful advice like: “Select your instrument according to the child’s size. For the under 1 year old, a little, 10- to 12-inch-long willowy branch (striped [sic] of any knots that might break the skin) about one-eighth inch in diameter is sufficient.”
This book is apparently popular with some Christians. But I imagine there are non-religious people buying both books. Being an abusive asshole takes all kinds.
Really? I can think of a much better place for this thread.
Sure, except that the article quotes someone who refers to the author of the book as a “prominent Islamic scholar”, while the people who wrote that parenting book are some lunatics nobody’s heard of. But yeah, all cultures and religions believe the same stuff and treat women exactly the same.
The parenting book is quite popular amongst the fundamental Christian sect, and at least one child’s death is being attributed to it.
And you think five hundred million Muslim men beat their wives? A Gift For the Muslim Couple is probably no more mainstream than To Train Up a Child.
I have to wonder how many copies of both books were purchased by people for the entertainment value of reading something written by total whack-a-loons, or as gag gifts for new parents/newlyweds.
When your doctor checks the reflexes in your knee, has it ever resulted in a fatality?
You seem to be doing this more and more. It’s a pretty stupid game, FYI.
Do not taunt a Social Justice Warrior. It never ends well.
I’ll be nice and let him choose what he wants to put in his coffee: I got drain cleaner, battery acid, and anti-freeze.
Well, just that one time. But, it was an accident,I swear!
and he was wearing a hoodie at the time.
sssssooooon…
