I have seen all her panel discussions and I must admit this video is the first time I've seen Mona finally being open about her bisexuality. And breaking barriers of a taboo society. Mona is being more bold then ever in her discussion, what a brave woman. My concern is when she goes back to Egypt, I hope the regime doesn't hunt her down. Since there is a big crack-down with dissenters.
If she became a political member I'd be part of her security group. She reminds me of a strong sister I have who does not (much to my concern) back down to anyone. A strong woman who I am proud of. Naturally, we should all have a brotherly protectiveness to people like this. Follow this lady's life, she's been through much.
