Summary/Abstract: In Germany, thousands of Muslim women live under the yoke of patriarchy. They are locked in apartments, helpless against violence and forced marriage. Without a chance of integration, they disappear in parallel worlds reigned by fundamentalist home tyrants. Muslim women are victims of crude male domination, but also of German taboos: foreign religions and cultures are not to be criticized.
