You are an adult. As long as you understand and don't mind being devalued and dehumanized, you should do what you want. Just my $.02.

Not every Muslim devalues and dehumanizes women and not every Muslim belongs to fundamentalist Islamic groups. Certainly not every Muslim is a Taliban. Ton of Muslims are moderate in their practices and are kind and loving husbands and fathers.
There are Christian groups that very intolerant and don’t respect and don’t value women either. By this logic we shouldn’t date Christians either.
There are many different denominations and groups and cultures that practice Islam, they are all different. There is no collective “Muslim culture”. This stereotyping is unnecessary fear inducing.
This particular man is no good, he is clearly interested in something on a side despite being married, which sadly happens all the time with all kinds of people. It doesn’t mean women in general shouldn’t consider Muslim men as partners. Why generalize...
