German Women Reject Relationships With 'Refugees,' and Woke Leftists Are Hardest Hit

German Women Reject Relationships With 'Refugees,' and Woke Leftists Are Hardest Hit

Europe has a massive problem with Muslim migrants, and anyone with eyes can see why. The so-called "refugees" from places like Afghanistan, Syria, and other Islamic nations are always military-age men who come from cultures where women are treated like property, denied basic human rights, and subjected to physical and sexual abuses.

In December, I reported how Afghan "asylum seekers" in the U.K., fresh off raping a 15-year-old girl in Warwickshire, blamed the U.K.'s "cultural differences" for the attack. Their lawyer, who wasn't immediately disbarred and exiled, argued his clients were "not used to a society where women are free and deemed equal to men."

It seems unwise to me to import droves of men from cultures where women have no rights, if their reaction when they get here is to bring their troglodytic, Third World thinking with them. It would explain why the number of reported rapes in the U.K. have skyrocket in the last decade or so, making it the world leader in sexual assaults. And those are the cases we know about. Imagine how many go unreported.

So it's no surprise to me that a study shows that German women, who only fair slightly better than their British sisters, aren't interested in forming relationships with men who hail from cultures that view women as sex slaves and punching bags with no inherent human rights.

And I didn't need a study to tell me that. I have a brain.

But a study did just that:

The entire post reads (emphasis added):

Germany, in particular, received over 1,4 million refugees between 2014 and 2016, predominantly from Muslim-majority countries such as Syria and Afghanistan. The majority of these arrivals consisted of young, single men within prime marriageable age brackets. This study examines partnership preferences of male refugees from Afghanistan and Syria who arrived in Germany between 2014 and 2016 and female residents of similar age.

Overall, our results indicate a high level of openness among male refugees towards partnering with female members of the resident population, but a comparatively low level of openness among the latter towards partnering with recently arrived male refugees. This implies a substantial incongruence in partnership preferences among the two groups.

 Regarding the educational level of a potential partner, we found that all respondents prefer highly educated partners over those with lower levels of education. This suggests that, for refugees, securing a highly educated partner might serve as a means of upward social mobility and integration into higher-status networks in the host society.

Furthermore, it is possible that highly educated women, due to their greater exposure to diverse social environments and potentially less discriminatory attitudes, are perceived as more open to intergroup partnerships, making them a more attractive choice for refugees seeking acceptance and social integration.

On the other hand, the reluctance of resident women to accept partnerships with refugees is largely explained by their rejection of the ‘imported’ religious Islam. It is possible that resident women perceive the religious practices of newly arrived refugees as different from their own, reinforcing a social distance that limits intergroup partnerships. Moreover, this reluctance might not only reflect religious differences but also concerns about gender norms or perceived lifestyle incompatibilities.

You can read the entire study here:

There's a lot to parse in that post, but I'll focus on two salient points. First, the notion that these men are seeking "highly educated partners." This has nothing to do with respecting their intellect and achievements and everything to do with either looking for a free meal ticket or seeking to remove these women from the workforce and subjugate them. Roughly half a million asylum seekers in Germany are currently receiving direct government benefits, with additional numbers of recognized refugees receiving standard welfare through the broader social system. With about 1.5 million refugees in Germany, that means one-third are on welfare.

And Islam isn't known for encouraging women's education. In Afghanistan and elsewhere, Muslim girls are prohibited from getting an education, prohibited from holding jobs, and are barred from leaving the house unless accompanied by a male relative. They're also barred from being seen through the windows of their houses.

That's the future they want for German women.

Which is why German women have legitimate concerns about "gender norms" and those "lifestyle incompatibilities." Those aren't perceived, either. They're very real, and we have a plethora of examples of how Islamic culture treats women. This includes Afghanistan legalizing the physical abuse of women, creating a caste system in the nation that classifies women as slaves and allows husbands, the "slave owners" to give out physical punishments to their wives or subordinates.

But the implications of this are what is most disturbing.

It's clear the German government, like most of Europe, views the crimes of "racism" and "Islamophobia" as bigger offenses than the sexual abuse of women. Under this thinking, and with this study as "proof" of the issues, expect an increase in the two-tiered justice system that's so pervasive in Europe. This paints the refugees as victims of women's rejection, which — as the study mentions repeatedly — is due to cultural and religious concerns. There's no way the authorities don't paint that as unacceptable racism and shame women into accepting these relationships, or refusing to punish these "refugees" when they continue to rape and assault women.

What this study ultimately reveals is not prejudice, but preference, and more importantly, self-preservation. German women are making rational decisions based on values, expectations, and lived realities that policymakers seem determined to ignore. To some, this notion is offensive. What happened to "my body, my choice" and the concept of consent, Leftists? Why are those two concepts that only apply to a certain segment of the male population, but not to refugees?

If European governments continue down this path — dismissing legitimate concerns as bigotry while importing cultural norms fundamentally at odds with their own societies — they shouldn’t be surprised when social cohesion continues to fracture. And any attempts to punish that fracture will only exacerbate the problem. Then again, the collapse is probably by design. 

But it is not inevitable.

You cannot force integration where there is no shared foundation. And you certainly cannot shame women into abandoning their own standards for the sake of political convenience. Those women, of course, need to learn from their gay European counterparts, who are embracing right-leaning political parties amid the rise of anti-gay Islam across the continent, and vote out the politicians who are content to import their abusers.
