Beating is shameful

It’s very sad that we still need to campaign against beating women in Lebanon.

Everytime I see such campaigns, I can’t help but remember the LBC interview with some Taliban-loving Sheikh on how to beat your wife.

    It is a nice campaign. It wants to deliver the message that beating women is not ‘zbeeb’ as what is written on the torn paper, it is a shameful act. I still don’t understand from where people got the stupid saying ‘darb el 7abeeb zbeeb’ in the first place.

    “Darb el-habeeb zbeeb,” in my lifetime has been used when my mom wanted to beat us as kids :P or when I’m annoyed at my sister and jokingly punch her. But I’ve never taken it to mean beating your wife. Also, that video, its funny how that line he’s discussing is interpreted in a million ways. His argument kills me!

    In some countries it is more socially accepted to abuse certain groups of citizens who are not considered as equals..
