Obsessed with Virginity – Female Sexuality among Western Muslims | DW Documentary

Available for purchase are kits for faking virginity. Young Muslim women are supposedly among the target market. But who is really pushing the demand?

What significance does the requirement for virginity have among young Muslims? Are their own expectations and outlooks compatible with their parents' traditions? Filmmaker Güner Yasemin Balci heard some extremely personal responses to these questions while making the documentary ‘Obsessed with Virginity’. She was born to Turkish immigrants and grew up in the multicultural Berlin district of Neukölln. From an early age she was eager to know why Muslims often deny their children the right to self-determination, and what price the younger generation have to pay to be free. She talks to female activists, women's rights campaigners and psychologists, who themselves have Muslim roots. All of them have had to fight to be able to live their own lives. It meant breaking away from families and friends due to the women's rejection of moral concepts that make sexuality a crime - and which are still promoted by preachers in many mosques today as they were 900 years ago. These are women who want to educate and change society, with an agenda that is both personal and political.

Muslim Population in Europe to Reach 10% by 2050, New Forecast Shows

THE GUARDIAN: Pew Research study predicts that America’s Muslim population will grow to 2.1% by 2050, and Muslims will exceed Christians worldwide by 2070

Muslims will nearly double their numbers in Europe – to more than 10% – by 2050 and will outnumber Christians worldwide by 2070, according to a new forecast of the growth of religions around the world.

The report, by Pew Research Center, also predicts that Muslims will become the second-largest religious group in the US – at 2.1% – by 2050.

Europe’s Muslim population, boosted by large families and immigration, will nearly double, from less than 6% (43 million people) in 2010 to more than 10% (71 million people) in 2050, the forecast estimates.

The US by 2050 will still have more Christians than any other denomination, according to the report, but they will decline from 77% to 66% of the population.

Although the Muslim population represents a tiny fraction of Americans – about 1% – it is set to grow rapidly over the next four decades. The report predicts Muslim will surpass Jews to become the second-largest religious group in the US by 2050 – while still only representing 2.1% of the whole country. » | Alan Yuhas in New York | Thursday, April 02, 2015
