Kuwaiti activist says buying husbands will curb divorces and improve offspring

KUWAIT — An outspoken Kuwaiti activist has come out with a bold solution to what she said was a surge divorces and spinsters in the oil-rich Gulf emirate—buying foreign husbands. She said the proposal could also improve the country’s offspring.

Salwa al Mutairi, a former candidate in Kuwait’s recent parliament elections, said the government needs to enact legislation allowing women to buy “handsome” Moslem bridegrooms from other countries on the grounds this would contribute to family stability in Kuwait, one of the wealthiest nations.

“We will not be able to eliminate spinsterhood and curb the surge in divorces unless the government enforces this idea,” she told Alseyassa newspaper.

“I am suggesting the enactment of a law allowing us to buy handsome husbands with special specifications…as we know, Kuwaiti women are spoilt and have a strong character so they always like to act as leaders…that’s why they are always on a confrontation line with their husbands, leading to divorce.”

Mutairi described the present situation as a “real social dilemma” and her concept of imported husbands is that they should be a “polite, intelligent, pretty and humble man who should obey his wife and fulfill her demands.”

“This will enable the Kuwaiti woman to spend her best days with her husband away from confrontations, fighting and rifts,” she said.

“My aim of this suggestion is to improve the offspring in Kuwait by importing white-colored husbands..…as we sometimes think of improving the atmosphere by artificial rain or planting a million trees, we ought to think about improving our next offspring… since Kuwaiti women have the resources to buy handsome, polite and lovely husbands, I wonder why they don’t do so and eliminate spinsterhood…if I get an official approval, I am ready to go to Islamic states and other countries to get these husbands with specifications that suit our women.”

this is why the Somalis in this forsaken situation now. DON'T FOLLOW ARABS OR THEIR TERRIBLE CULTURE. these people are really worthless animals don't feel sad for these sub-humans. Islam and Arabism is very different so don't be made to think arabs are the best muslims.

Some of you people are two faced, what do you think a dawry is? Its buying someone, and muslims and somalis have been doing that shyt for years.

Also somali men have been buying indian women to marry so dont give me that crap, I see nothing wrong with muslim women doing the same.

Notice how if a woman does something men have been doing everyone jumps up screaming bloody murder.

These women are educated and the want life partners, why shouldnt they take advantage of the melting pot that is available to them. Also long as they get married how is this different from what Muslim men have been doing?

I say we take it a step further and let our sisters have 4 husbands, I know I would appreciate it, it would def take the egde off when I needed a break. After all islam is supposed to be fair right? or was that just a blurp to reel unsuspecting folks in?
Laters!
