It was fascinating to watch this discussion, between Kuwaiti Scholar Jassem Al-Mutawa, who seems like a sweetie—if you manage to look across the many cultural divides—and another scholar, on the merits of disciplining one’s spouse.
If we can overcome our essential disgust with the discussion of women as objects, it is interesting to see the huge differences between the two men in the discussion. Also – watch the collection of rods the moderator is displaying. It’s like a Golf set, each rod with its purpose.
