My dilemma is that of the confidence of both male refugees and North American hosts expecting the practice of dishonor towards women will miraculously vanish in the Islamic men's transition to their new home in North America..
It is one thing for a male immigrant to believe he is capable of honoring the practice of gender equality at the level North American women now experience however I question how long this can be sustained ...... it is only a matter of time when new male refugee finds himself in a situation where he experiences a woman "with power".
After decades of living the culture whereby women are oppressed, he will at some point in his transition face a North American female in a leadership role. Should this present a negative outcome for the immigrant Islamic male, he will likely instinctual and spontaneously act out without consciousness and do so from the depths of his birth roots. This type of acting out would likely be in a moment of frustration that would escalate to rage and violence toward a North American female.

Why do I have this concern?....Answer: from personal experience.
Several years ago, I found myself in a situation whereby I delayed the progress of an Islamic male in his effort to proceed through a small parking lot. Shortly after he entered the lot he encountered my car blocking his path as I backed out of my parking space......a situation whereby I had to make two attempts in order to find enough room to turn the car backward and continue to proceed in the backing out of a the small space.
As I was looking over my right shoulder to ensure I had enough room, I felt a force to my left face.......to my horror I had been punched by an Islamic male who was behind me and in a rage which evolved from the fact that a women (myself) had caused him a delay as he intended to move forward without hesitation. He had left his car (unnoticed by myself) to walk up to my passenger door in order to present a form of a violent act.
Despite being in a state of shock, I did manage to remember his licence plate number, drove home and called the police. Friends encouraged me to charge this Islamic individual and once I gathered my wits about me, I did go to the police station and gave a statement which would be the basis of my charging this immigrant of violent behavior.
Representation by a Queen's Counselor was assigned to represent my charge and I met with her on the assigned court date. I was very nervous and feared retribution after the Judge would make his statement. The Judge first called the Islamic immigrant to the stand and relate the incident that caused him to stand before him. I was then asked about the event and it was only a matter of a few questions and answers when the Judge stated he was satisfied with my description of the event.
The Islamic's lawyer was then called to the stand once again and in a matter of a few sentences, the Judge announced that the Islamic individual would be deported. The Judge's last statement was "when privileged to live in Canada you do as Canadians do".Following: a sketch similarly representing the event of violence, namely a car trying to back out of a small space and in doing so delays the car behind him.
