As is often the case with hypocritical, fundamentalist religion, the appearance of something is often more important to believers than the substance.  And women continue to accept second-class citizenship because they believe it is their ‘culture.’

And what an odd confluence of science and religion.  Using an advanced, modern, elective surgical technique in response to a centuries-old, misogynistic ‘honor code.’  1008 values carried out with 2008 technology.

Or to put that another way:  George W. Bush and the nuclear button.

Sleep well tonight, dear readers.
