Things American Muslim women don't wanna hear from you

43. Of course they don't have to change, and the stickup

comment was crude.

But I don't have to approve of everyone's jackass choices.

Neither do you.

So when you meet a guy who keeps a second wife and child in his country of origin, or parents who are raising a all-American free-ranging son alongside a hijabi daughter who lives under strict modesty rules and punishments, or a man who refuses to shake your hand because your female touch might seduce/defile him, or someone who calmly tells you that God wants gays executed for their sins,

you do get to decide whether you respect these aspects of the religion. (Do you? And do you care about the girls and the gays and the kids getting hurt?)

Apply your liberal values and decide what's acceptable and harmless - and what isn't. Having "tolerance" for everything means standing for nothing.

Just my thoughts. Best wishes to you.
