Saudi ERA watch

It’s as plain as the nose on your face: Women don’t like men having multiple wives. And you know, it just doesn’t really work all that well, either. For the women, anyway.

RIYADH – A Saudi man lost part of his nose in a heated argument with his two wives because he threatened to marry a third woman, Shams newspaper reported on Tuesday.

Judaie bin Salim jokingly told his wives that he would marry again if they were unable to resolve their differences over how to divide their new house, the paper said.

Salim repeated the threat because of how ill-mannered his wives had acted.

This proved a provocation too far for the women, who then attacked him and left him with a part of his nose missing, a broken cartilage and needing seven stitches.

“I never thought my wives would respond to such a degree,” Judai told the daily, adding the only way to restore his diginity would be to go ahead and take a third wife.

No word on the punishment for the women, but I’m guessing they got their asses kicked by their husband once he got back from the hospital. Probably brought along some of his male relatives to help.

Yeah, those Muslim women. They’re really right up there with Western feminists in how free Islam makes them. Uh-huh. Sure.
