It seems in this case that the husband was born a French citizen so there is no way for the government to deny his application. But I will offer to supply a possible reasoning in a similar case but this time the husband is not a citizen. I would first say that he would probably not receive citizenship in that situation. The reason for her not to get citizenship in this situation is basically the same as in the story. It might be outside forces that are making a women wear the "bee keeper suit" (and i use that term with all the disrespect possible) but by keeping her from getting citizenship it might send a message to these outside forces that if they want the wife to be a French citizen she must be allowed to be at least worth most of a man than none of a man. It might seem harsh and I would agree but with out the women coming forward and asking for help or asylum there is not alot that the government can do.

I am sorry you don't understand the internet or how to do basic research using a web browser but I most certainly gave a link to the information I cited with the exact information I gave. You have to download the spreadsheet package to access the information, i know alot of work. The spreadsheet package includes about 20 different files of different information on the makeup of victims, they where even kind of enough to include a readme file that will tell you what is in each file. The exact file is the 6th spreadsheet included.

Also, I don't think it makes sense to compare only white women against black men when talking of issues of sexism unless you contend that black women are never victims of sexism. It seems to me that black women can be victims of sexism just as white women can. Conversely, it makes no sense just to look at black men as victims of racism. Surely black women are victims of racism as well. Why do you want to leave out black women?

Well no shit black women face racism and a hell of a lot more sexism than the upper class white women that make up the American feminist movement (aka radical feminism or blame the patriarchy pomo feminism). I compared black men to white women because that is what the Clinton camp in the form of Steinem did and what Curic is all but doing. Funny how neither mention the hardships faced by black women. I made the comparison between black men and white women to isolate racism and sexism since the American feminist movement is not exactly honest with the numbers and would blame all of the troubles facing black women on the patriarchy and sexism.

I do not think the perpetrators of crims are at all irrelvant. If black men are victims of crimes more often committed by black men than or white men, shouldn't those crimes be eliminated as examples of racism -- unless you want to contend that black men are racist against each other. Seems a little odd to me.

You have missed the point I was making. It does not matter at all how the perpetrators of any crime is as society has gone out of its way to help white women victims while ignoring the largest group of victims. Society has set up shelters for women, society goes out of its way to protect the privacy of women victims, society goes in to 24 hour nonstop coverage when there is a white women victim. Society sets up classes and workshops for white women to teach them techniques to prevent being victims. The same can not be said for programs for black men. Only three times have a black male victim ever been a major news story, MLK JR, Bryd and King. There are few to no classes for young black males on avoiding being a victim. No safe havens for potential victims.

Not that it matters at all my race but I am a white male from a working class background. I bring up the Duke case because that was a perfect storm of the hypocrisy of American feminism, how far we have come to a guilty to proven innocent society and justice system (that usually traps black males), the victimization culture best represented by Sharpton and Allrad and the media's laziness. The lesson I hope the Duke case gave every potential juror is that the next time they are in the court room judging a young black male that maybe just maybe there are agendas being advanced by the prosecutor.

Well stud, start working out and start striping, since you seem to think that there is so much money in being seen as a piece of meat. Actually, go play basketball or football- since you are male, that's a more accurate correlation. Being a slice of flesh, seems to be the only way a white woman or a black man can get any recognition in this society.

Riiiiiiight, white women are not constantly being showed as the only thing keeping a stupid husband from feeding there kids rat poisoning.
