If you are antisemitic does that make you panislamic?
Islam in Europe is proving to be oppressive to all and especially Jews and women. Does being pro/pan-islamic make you a misogynist?

Most organized religions have at least a history of being oppressive towards women. So to be part of any of the Abrahamic faiths is to be involved with an organization that has supported misogyny. (edited)
This is not to say that other categories of religions aren’t guilty of this as well.

@bijouxbroussard I don’t agree that your second sentence follows from the first. And this is an issue I care about A LOT. Many religious denominations, including large ones, still have this issue. But others have evolved. I think it would be hard to argue that, say, Reform Judaism or the UCC (formerly Congregational) are in any way misogynistic in present times.

@Harmonium1923 That was why I said they at least have that history (what’s a ghet ?). Perhaps the second sentence was hyperbolic, and I apologize; I do know that there are female rabbis now, and some Christian denominations allow women as heads.

@bijouxbroussard I fully agree with respect to history, and in many cases—sadly—in the present day. But there are exceptions.
