WTF I am lost. I said that it's OK that I can't shake your wife's hand, however somehow that mutated itself into me condoning domestic violence.

Please explain it all to me slowly @Kornstar .

My point is about you trivialising boys being able to degrade girls by not having to shake their hands.

What seems odd is that you have roasted the Don for degrading women yet as soon as someone's culture calls for them to do the same we can easily excuse it.

As a society we have moved past males dominating females and have giving women equal rights but it seems that there are groups that are allowed to freely dismiss women and we are all ok with in case we offend them.

You are an interesting person, Gronk.

You've lost the plot.

Not shaking hands due to being jewish has little to do with the mysoginy of Donald Trump.

Please point the link out mate.

Not shaking hands does not impinge womans rights.

Grabbing them by the pussy however does.

I thought Gronk's point was pretty clear.... That there is more than 1 subset of 1 religious group that encourage attitudes to women that most of us are uncomfortable with (and those attitudes do sometimes extend to domestic violence....see recent docos on Melbourne's Orthodox Jewish community). But one group is called out far more often than the other.

Any culture, religion or brainwashing that indoctrinates and promotes that sort of nonsense should be ridiculed for the closed minded separatist load of shite that it is. Whether it's muslim youth in schools in western sydney or rabbi's in dover heights.

People need to act with decency to each other regardless of sex or faith or whatever. Refusing to shake another person's hand in the forum described in that newspaper article is disrespectful, I don't give a f**k which imaginary being you worship. Nonsense, absolute nonsense the lot of it.

I couldn't give a toss who decides they won't shake someone's hand becaus they are women, it is plain wrong.

His client is a f**king wanker too.

I never even mentioned Muslim, just goes to show that people are just ready to defend them though.......that is also pretty telling.

Why is asking that all people who behave in a particular manner be treated in the same way an example of defending Muslims? What it is doing is point out the hypocrisy in some of the people who get stuck into them, but apparently find similar behaviour unobjectionable if carried out by a different group of dicks.

Gronk blew the situation off in the case of the article and his client. So therefore he is ok with it as long as it is culture based. If a good old Anglo did it then it wouldn't be ok cause we are not primitive f**k heads.

Do you not see the hypocrisy in Gronks carry on over Trump and his treatment of women and his total uninterest in the lack of respect shown in the article or his example?

I took gronks post to imply that he was unimpressed by his clients behaviour, but wasn't in a position to make a song and dance of it.

I'm not condoning one religion or another. However when it comes to me not shaking the hand of a woman because their culture prefers that I don't - I don't see the issue. Does it offend me ? No. Did I at the time feel that the woman was being oppressed ? No, she appeared quite comfortable and in her community being married to a Rabbi is not unlike being a politicians wife.

Of course I object strongly to the degradation or humiliation of women in any culture, in any religion or in any country.

If you think I am being inconsistent, then feel free to give me all you got.

I don't have access to the article. Why aren't Muslim boys or Rabi's wives allowed to shake the opposite sex's hands? Is there a good reason behind it?
