KARACHI: British minister and co-chairman of the Conservatives Party Baroness Sayeeda Warsi has said that a small minority of Pakistani men believe that white women “are a fair game.”
Warsi’s comments follow the sentencing of nine men (eight of Pakistani origin) for plying white girls, as young as 13, with alcohol and drugs so they could be used for sex.
“There is a small minority of Pakistani men who believe that white girls are fair game. And we have to be prepared to say that. You can only start solving a problem if you acknowledge it first,” the Baroness was quoted as saying by reports in British media.
UK’s first female Muslim minister said religious leaders must isolate such men who treat white women as “third-rate citizens.”
“In mosque after mosque, this should be raised as an issue so that anybody remotely involved should start to feel that the community is turning on them,” she said.
Following the case, the Greater Manchester police did not highlight race as one of the major factors in the crime but Warsi insisted that “cultural sensitivity should never be a bar to applying the law.”
Ms. Warsi only wants to score to get reelected. Lets not pay attention
Amazing more Indians here than Pakistanis. They must also be reading today's Dawn or guardian :Indian women turn to firearms to protect themselves"
And this is also the reason none of my comments were allowed.
A nation's shame! That is very well put. There were two guys in my class frm khi, pak wd utterly sick, disgusting mentality I have ever seen. All they wanted to do vs hang out 24/7 wd white girls or looking for female friendships for sexual relations. Bcz they moved out on their own for the first time. What A Shame!!!!!!!!! Chinese men are much better!
While it is dangerous to generalize, clearly Pakistan is very much a mideval nation holding on to attitudes which were prevalent during Europe's Dark Ages. A pity the nations Islam, including Pakistan, have fallen so far from the heights achieved at that time. They can rise again but must first must stop blaming others and direct their energies towards advancing themselves.
Please do not confuse Punjabi Indians with whole of India. Female baby abortions are most rampant in Punjab and Haryana states in India. So, this is more of a cultural problem because of "jhoothi Shaan" syndrome in jat-jaat community of India and Pakistan alike. Sati-custom was never prevalent in Indian culture, and was only started by some Rajput Clans to save their women folk from barbarians Muslim aggressors. Sati system stopped once mulims aggression stopped or they converted most of the Rajput king clans. Shudra's are ruling the Indian states as CM in present day India as they used to do in the medieval times. Its time Pakistanis start to read real NEWS from world media and do not behave like an ostrich when confronted with the truth about India and Pakistan. The truth is, however you compare, India is far ahead of Pakistan in Social, economic, military index. Pakistanis must acknowledge the problem first and then only they could do something about it. Salman Taseer , Bhatti and Murtaza razvi were killed in last 1 year and no one is held except Qadri. and i read that various Judges are not having enough strength to hang Qadri……Let alone catch the real culprit that is Hanif Qureshi.
I recall (late) Moin Akhtar's joke on Pakistani men on PTV. He said: how to detect a Pakistani – choose 100 men of different nationality including a Pakistani and make them sit in a row. Now leave a white girl in bikni pass front of these men, all men of different nationality will watch the girl pass them, but a Pakistani will turn his back until she isout of sight.
JD, you said "Pakistani men have no respect for women of any color." that's not true, I being an Indian Hindu women, have met some nice Pakstani friends, who are good, helpufl,, considerate men.
