There is no good time to post this. I am not in any way to trivializing what's happened in France today by turning it into a gender issue. It is not. I am not comparing what happened it to anyone's rights, gender, racial or otherwise.

To be clear, the words that I have quoted below are less than trivial compared to what happened.

This quote from one of the terrorists in France today. It provides contrast of what many would call patriarchy, male privilege, and women's subjugation:

“I’m not killing you because you are a woman and we don’t kill women but you have to convert to Islam, read the Qu'ran and wear a veil”. Source
