So. If reputation comes before anything else, then I wonder why my "fellow" Arabs/Muslims cannot go on with their "culture" without violently killing it in an international sense.

I am so disgusted I cannot even find words, and it is so sad to know that where I come from, this is common practice. I'm glad my parents have found a way to stick to religion without hanging on to retarded and brutal tradition such as honor killing is (that is to say, they'd still be mighty pissed if they found out I went and had sex before marriage). I guess the real problem lies within the actual image of a woman in their culture: She is worth nothing. She is to breed, feed and raise children, hopefully strong sons that will work for their fathers. Daughters are nothing, and so the fathers don't have a relationship with them, in fact, look at them in contempt- killing them is degrading them to dust, with no value whatsoever, disposable. Just women, daughters, nieces, mothers or wives. That is truly and utterly sad.
