You can only go against those so much before offending a human dignity or understanding that predates whatever stupid cultural crap you're trying to follow.

This shit about being allowed to hit your wife is simply institutionalized sexism and demonstrates a fundamental weakness in certain Saudi men that are incapable of communicating with women in a healthy way because the society they grew up in didn't teach them correctly.

Lets not forget its not just the men here. Women are brought up to believe that their man can and will use physical force on them if they deem it necessary. Its their culture and upbringing. By stating they are offending a human dignity and men don't know how to talk to women, you are imposing your particular upbringing and morality on an entirely different culture.
As Crompsin noted, is our culture's objectifying of women really any better? Are we so much more civilized because we don't hit our women, but will gladly trade them in for a younger model at a certain point?
Oh, and murder is allowed in practically every society. Just depends on who's doing it to whom.
