This question should be: "Would you have sex with her?"

The answer is obviously YES. Anyone who would vote no is obviously a gay or heterosexual female.

Or, perhaps people who prefer not to have sex with people with whom they have no relationship whatsoever.

um, look at the pictures of her on her site and then say you wouldn't have sex with her:

I find it hard to call someone who defended honor killings "freedom fighter".

I googled it and it appears like she said the exact opposite on Oprah:

http://www.jordanembassyus.org/speech_hmqr10052001.htm

Oprah: One of the things that we have been horrified by in the U.S., and I've actually done several shows about here, are honor killings. I know you have campaigned against honor killings, the Jordanian parliament however, as I understand it, has rejected laws that would treat those crimes as seriously as other homicides. Where does that stand now?

Queen Rania: It's very important for me to clarify that honor killings are not in any way condoned or accepted in Islam. They are, in fact, un-Islamic. These are more cultural and social aspects that we have to deal with here.

What we're looking to do here in Jordan, and our voices have been heard and many people have been rallying, is to try to explain the whole issue of honor killings, and to try to explain where Islam stands [on] this issue. Once we have this open dialogue and we reach to the grassroots where people can understand this issue, we are hoping through democratic process to change these laws that we have in Jordan.

The problem was the fact that people didn't understand what honor killings were and how often they were happening and all the dimensions of the issue. We need more public awareness about the issue and that's what we're doing right now. It's only a matter of time before these laws that you're referring to are going to be changed.


Of course, it's not like I care one iota about her politics. That's not what's great about her. See above posts.

Anyone who wouldn't want to have sex with her clearly has no attraction to women.
