If you deem sexual autonomy as the only measure of expansion of women's rights, then kudos to you as you have made your point. However, most women, particularly Muslim women, do not measure their status by how many men they can sleep with. There are many other, more important factors to consider, as Professor Ahmed points out.

Once again, nice try in attempting to tarnish Islam. [/quote]
Well, since you're now all about Professor Ahmed, let's quote some more from her, shall we?  Spin this:
[b]
“Islamic civilization developed a construct of history that labeled the pre-Islamic period the Age of Ignorance and projected Islam as the sole source of all that was civilized – and used that construct so effectively in its rewriting of history that the peoples of the Middle East lost all knowledge of the past civilizations of the religion. Obviously that construct was ideologically serviceable, successful concealing, among other things, the fact that in some cultures of the Middle East women had been considerably better off before the rise of Islam than afterwards.” (p.37)
[/b]

Thanks very much, Dr. Ahmed.

Well of course. Didn't we just establish that women had greater sexual autonomy before Islam. Thats what they lost after Islam. Wasn't  it you who said abstaining from fornication and adultery would be oppressive to you? Naturally, pre Islam would have afforded you the type of privileges you equate with status and power.
