This is a photo from the Women’s Safety Initiative in the U.K., an organization dedicated to raising awareness of how mass immigration has impacted women.
College girls like to talk a lot about immigration even if the collective of us all has a tenuous grasp on the issue. When I sit in my political communications class and a topic about immigration comes up (and most of them are about immigration right now), a few themes dominate. Most girls want a considerate and empathy-driven immigration policy while also wanting to feel safe. These are two of the strongest instincts we have as women. We want to care for others, and we want to feel safe. Unfortunately, these two instincts are at odds in modern politics where women have been convinced that a) caring for every stranger from the third world is our greatest moral obligation and b) knowing (but never, ever saying) that the strange foreign or minority man on the sidewalk at night is far more likely to sexually assault us than any random American man.
This mishmash of emotional reasoning has led to a modern feminism that rages against both immigration enforcement and the increase in violence against women. The latter, we are actively importing from the third-world. But, not all (and, I would say, not most) women are so insane that they cannot listen to reason. After all, 53% of White American women and 63% of non-college White American women backed Donald Trump in 2024. There is a coalition of us willing to listen to reason on the issue of immigration, and I truly think that this coalition can be made larger by creating a sort of for women but not feminist immigration policy. When crafting immigration policy and potential travel bans, we must look at how foreign countries treat their women and girls.
There is a lot data to go off of to construct this for-women immigration policy for America and every white Western country that wants to keep its women safe from foreign predators and imported crime.
Georgetown University in Washington DC has an Institute for Women, Peace and Security that calculates a peace and security index that evaluates the safety of women around the world and they rank the countries every year. The rankings go from 0 to 1. The closer a country is to one, the more secure are the women who live there. The United States is a 0.81 and ranked the 31st safest country out of 181 for women. The worst country ranked 181 of 181 is Afghanistan, followed by Yemen, the Central African Republic, Syria, and Sudan. I notice immediately that they are all Islamic countries. If the United States and Europe were to ban immigration from every non-European majority country that scores worse than the worst-scoring European-majority country (Greece!), then the ban would cover 142 countries. The only notable exceptions would be Japan, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Thailand, Mongolia, and Singapore. The ban would cover 4/5ths of the world’s population and almost the entire developing world! It’s a good start but there are a lot of other indexes and qualifications we can use.
I for one want to see immigration banned from every country that operates under a system of Sharia Law. This is because most systems of Sharia Law as influenced by the Islamic scholar Ahmed Shafaat permit the beating and physical abuse of women as long as it doesn’t cross arbitrary and rarely-enforced limits that every country interprets differently. Any culture that permits the beating of women except to the point of broken bones or permits the beating of women except for her face is not compatible with the civilization that Western men built. If America and the West were to ban immigration from any country that has Sharia Law as part of its legal system in any way whatsoever, the ban would cover 41 countries including some I did not expect such as Singapore, the Philippines, India, and Israel. I am not going to complain that any of them are included though—the more Sharia bans we can find, the better! We should combine this with a policy of revoking citizenship from anyone in the Western world who advocates for Sharia-style legal and cultural ideas.
The next sensible ban is to protect young girls from the terrible sexual morality of the third-world. We should ban immigration from any country where there is a higher than 1% share of girls under the age of 15 who are married. Children are incapable of consenting to marriage in any way, and we must protect Western women and girls from being exposed to cultures that believe forcing girls into marriage as young and younger than 15. By using data provided by the international organization Girls Not Brides, this ban would cover 97 non-Western countries including some that many Americans would be shocked to hear.
There are 2.3 million girls 15 or younger in Mexico who are married. This is the same amount as there are in Iran. In Brazil 3.5 million girls under 15 have been forced into marriage, and this is only slightly less than the 5 million young girls under 15 who have been forced into marriage in Afghanistan. In fact, the proposed immigration ban would cover the entirety of Latin America except for Chile and Venezuela, and that is only because Girls Not Brides does not have data on these countries. The country with the most child brides is India with 95 million girls 15 or younger who are married. No, this is not just a Muslim problem in India. In fact, Girls Not Brides reports that of the 12 million Indian girls under the age of 10 who are married, 84% of them are from Hindu families.
Next is the issue of human trafficking that is spiking badly in both the United States and Europe and mostly affects women and girls). In some countries in the world, human trafficking is a way of life and business model. A great example of this can be found in the cartels of Mexico and the organized criminal gangs in Northern Africa that shuffle people onto boats to cross the Mediterranean Sea to Europe. There is no reason to allow people from these cultures where kidnap, rape, and people-smuggling is considered an appropriate career choice. America and the rest of the West should use the State Department’s annually published Trafficking in Persons Report to put in place immigration bans and travel restrictions for any country that ranks tier 2 or higher on the State Department rankings.
This would affect roughly 120 countries and cover most of Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and a lot of Latin America.
Western men worked for centuries to create countries that encourage chivalry towards women and girls. Our freedoms will not last long if we become a minority in our homelands and the cultural criminality normal in so much of the rest of the world becomes normal here. We need a for women immigration policy before it is too late for women at all.
