Which, conveniently, Islam allows (the last part explicitly). But only with a stick no thicker than your thumb.
Because that would leave marks.
I take back the last part, given this piece: http://www.quran434.com/wife-beating-islam.html
Still, the misogynist environment is most Islamic countries makes one wonder that even if 4:34 actually means "cite her" (to the authorities) instead of "beat her", how could they have screwed up interpreting their own 'perfect' word so badly...
Slave to the Patriarchy no more
