Muslim man mad that transsexual tried to teach his wife to drive

It was pretty hard coming up with a title for this one, but I didn't want the title to just read "what the fucking fuck".

http://www.sheffieldtelegraph.co.uk/...ury.4099748.jp

To sum up. Muslim man, living in England, calls an all-female driving instruction firm to get driving lessons for his wife. To receive instruction from a man would be forbidden.

The firm sends a person who is partway through gender reassignment. She considers herself to be a woman, takes hormones, dresses as a woman, etc. but has not gone through the surgery. She's legally female as well, as the state has had to work its way around this kind of situation.

The Muslim guy is furious, because he's probably never encountered this situation before, and he believes that what the firm has sent him is a man disguised as a woman. And the wife got an hour of instruction before becoming... suspicious. In fact the man believes the firm is racist and sent him this "disguised man" *because* they are Muslim.

The firm is furious, because the Muslim guy has now called up and said the most outrageous ugly abusive things about the partial TS and the firm, and threatened to sue them.

We are witness to a most spectacular clash of cultures. Let us marvel at it.

To be fair, I can think of many non-religious and Christian men who would prefer a female driving instructor for their wife's lessons. And be horrified at the idea of a transexual instructor.

You're right re interesting clash though.

maybe he should go ahead and sue--it'd just make him look uneducated, bigoted, and ridiculous

not to mention like a fucking dick

ETA: that is one ugly woman!

Sex swap instructor? I thought she was a driving instructor. No wonder the husband was mad.

And neither the husband or children of Om Rabea al-Gahdaray, 70, have ever seen her face. It was a family tradition, also followed by her mother and sisters, which her husband accepted and never tried to change, she said. When asked how she could have children without her husband ever seeing her face, she replied: "Marriage is about love, not faces."

Think of all the time she saves not having to put on makeup or sunscreen.

True enough... or we (err, I mean they) might even prefer a woman to give us driving lessons.

There's a tasteless joke in there about a paper bag over a woman's head, but I won't be the one to make it.

But always remaining veiled - even in front of your husband - is not an Islamic practice, but a very old tradition practised by a tiny minority of women in remote areas of Gulf countries.

Yup, nutcase. Just not specifically Muslim nutcase. Interesting too that the old Hate Mail doesn't show a gulf-style niqāb, which is mostly likely what she was wearing. Doesn't illustrate the point as well as a pair of seductive Arab eyes does it?

Wait, he's letting his wife drive a car?

Clodfobble · 05-22-2008, 01:30 PM

He's very progressive, Flint.

Flint · 05-22-2008, 01:39 PM

Well, isn't that when all the problems start? He only has himself to blame.

What is he gonna think when transgendered people on the road also give his wife driving lessons, as in "Hey lady, it's the one on the right!" or, "How about a turn signal now and then?"

He doesn't realize just how much instruction she'd likely to encounter from just so many pedagogic infidels.

On the other hand I am reminded of my friend's comment when watching the "Crying Game." At the famous scene in the bedroom, my friend turned to her husband and said in her best pimp voice:
"When I fuck my woman, she better not have some of a pussy, and she better not have most of a pussy. When I fuck my woman she better have ALL of a pussy."

(The original had to do with her having all of his money)

What in the hell was she doing out of the back seat with the dog anyway?

She's such an asshole. I hope she was punished for the whole thing. It was her stupid idea to drive I bet.
