European Muslims Resort to Virginity Ploys

Dr. Emmanuelle Piet, who has been issuing five to six virginity certificates a year for three decades, poses at her home in Bondy, east of Paris, Wednesday June 21, 2006. Traditions of chastity can exact a painful price from young Muslim women in the West who resort to ploys, lies or surgery to go to the marriage bed like a virgin, and save the family honor. Hymen repair, fake virginity certificates or midwives' tricks, said to be a small industry in some Muslim countries, can be procured in France and elsewhere in Europe. (AP Photo/Michel Euler)

Nobody can deny the right of a man to demand from his future wife to be a virgin, that is if he himself is a virgin too. If he's not a virgin he has no moral right to ask such a thing.
Unfortunately in the Middle East most men want to marry a virgin and have sex before marriage themselves. Feed the goat and keep the cabbage too. Of course this usually result in man having sex with mainly prostitutes, which teaches them a very unreal image of sex and women in general. Such twisted culture in my view is very degrading to women in general and results in an unhealthy sexual life for men.
It's ok to belive in no sex before marriage, but than apply it to yourself as a man too. Or be fair and allow yourself and the women in your society to have sex on their own terms and beliefs. Double standards are never good.
