YOU missed MY point. domestic violence is a problem in all cultures, not just in the islamic faith. if you hope to have any credibility in your arguments, you should be speaking up for all of the victims and not cherrypicking the ones who fit your agenda. it doesn't matter if islamic men speak up and say it is acceptable vs. other men saying it is NOT acceptable when the result is the same. perhaps the only difference is whether the perpetrators are willing to admit they are ok with hurting women.

No I haven't missed your point in the slightest Hyperlexian. I do not support domestic violence and I recognise that domestic violence is a problem to varying degrees all over the world.
The clue is in the title of this thread. This is a discussion about unsavory parts of Islam.
You have accused me of 'having an agenda' but here is a challenge for you.
Go and look back through my posting history, find me one example just one where I have decided to derail a thread about an unrelated topic by posting anti-islamic material.
Find me an example of me being racist on threads that are about Islam, let alone unrelated threads.
If this thread had been about the negative impacts of christianity you wouldn't have touched it with a bargepole but because it is about Islam and because it is started by Tequila you are all over it like a nasty rash.
If you want to discuss domestic violence, start your own thread instead of derailing other people's threads.
