(With a heavy heart) Honor Killings!

In the Pakistani society ‘honor’ of a family is safe as long as female members of the family keep their hymens intact. To cut it short, ‘honor’ rests in the vaginas of women (while there is little check and balance over joysticks). Over a 1000 women are murdered every year by family members to save their 'honor.'

Primary reason for honor killings is, women exercising their right of choice in marriage.

Promiscuity and casual sex is taboo in many third world eastern societies, but in Pakistan a woman can be killed even for love marriage. A girl hailing from a conservative family is not supposed to fall in love. Her family members are supposed to find her potential suitor. They will decide with whom the girl will share bed for the rest of her life.
This is Zeenat Rafique;

She was beaten and then burnt alive by her own mother last week simply because she married a man of her own choice. Her sickening mother when asked, said she had no regrets.

I find it quiet ironic that girls here are taught not to talk to strangers by their families. But one day they have to share the bed with one.

EDIT1: Thank You everyone for your response. I have been asked if honor killings are inspired by religion or culture is to be blamed. I would like to point out that Islamic tradition gives women the right to marry out of their free will. Sadly honor killings are being carried out by neighboring non-muslims alike. Just two days back a Christian man has killed his sister in the name of ‘honor’ in Sialkot, Pakistan.

Unfortunately situation is not that different in neighboring non-Muslim northern India. Both India and Pakistan are leading the world in this gruesome practice.

EDIT2: Today another girl has been killed by her parents in the name of ‘honor’ in gujranwala/punjab, Pakistan. In case you are wondering, her “crime” was love marriage as well.

LAHORE: Relatives slit the throat of a young mother, who was pregnant with her second child after she married against their will, officials said Friday, the latest in a spate of so-called “honour killings”.
