    Dear Ayaan
    Thank you for inlightment for women conditions in islamic society.
    Our scars from injustice islamic laws against women gave us power to come out of the boat with all the threats.
    When I lost my father in age of 7,they told me don't Cray your father is dead .
    You know what's mean, means the islamic laws will make a fence around you with all kind of limitations.
    they stopped me for continuing my study while I studied hard and I was accepted to university, they took the only hope I had for my future very easy .
    How can this anti human right laws of Islam can be fairly and provide safety for women future when women live under injustice sword??😢🙏♥️
    With hope for better future

    A beautiful, strong fighter, courageous, extremely intelligent, conservative woman. I have nothing but respect for this beautiful woman. She should run for political office.

    Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a remarkable woman -- a true feminist who stands for the freedom of women world wide. Another such woman is Yasmine Mohammed. It was my honour to edit the manuscript that ultimately became her best selling book, Unveiled, How Western Liberals Empower Radical Islam. Her soul searing story is made all the more shocking because the religiously ordained abuse she suffered happened in Canada, and in one instance was actively supported by a Canadian judge, who ruled that we should not judge the discipline employed by people of "other cultures" as that would somehow be discriminatory. As Yasmine points out in her book, no matter the religious affiliation of the parents, all children suffer when they are physically harmed. Despite her success in writing and publishing Islam Unveiled, her struggle continues, as the platform on which her book is available refuses to allow her to use their advertising service because her book is too controversial. Please check out Yasmine's book at this URL: www.amazon.com/Unveiled-Western-Liberals-Empower-Radical/dp/1999240502 Prices range from $5.32 to $24.99 USD

    Some excellent passages:
    31:44
    I'm now going to end with the appeal that when I say as girls and women we should not demonise and dehumanise boys and men, it's the exact same logic that says let's not demonise and dehumanise Muslims, Africans, South Asians, societies that seem to be stuck with those cultural and religious norms. It's not to demonise them or dehumanise them, they are fellow human beings. But it is to insist that when they choose to stick with those ideas, with those norms, then it is of no surprise that their societies get stuck there. Let's not apologise for what we have achieved here. The Islamists do not apologise for their ideas and their norms. Instead of apologising for who we are and what we've achieved, I think we should not only celebrate it but aggressively and intensely and assertively promote it, even if that earns us accusations of racism, imperialism, Eurocentrism or whatever else are the tools that are used to shut us up, I just refuse to shut up. Thank you.

    There is something about, perhaps all religions, but very specifically the religion of Islam that just somehow is so terrified of female sexuality that they've developed an elaborate law to do nothing other than put them in burqas, lock them up… And I've had conversation after conversation: why? why? why? And it came - actually it dawned on me: it's not women's sexuality they're so afraid of, it's maybe men's sexuality. Because men go out and misbehave, and when men misbehave they say it's the women who caused it. And they're just stuck in this.
    1:01:50
    “John would like to know why do you think extremist Islam attracts so many people, and what can be done about it.”
    I think there are so many different reasons for that, but I will say extremist Islamists, they give you a binary worldview. You don't have to think for yourself, all the answers are given, you just have to follow. In that sense they're not different from any of those other worldviews that offer that kind of binary worldview. And the people you don't like, the people that- you have the in and the out so the people who don't opt in, they're your enemies, they're the infidels… you try to convert them and if you can't then you're hostile to them and then you try to kill them. But it is so blank that it takes critical thinking away from you, you don't have to struggle with moral issues, you don't have to struggle with how to live with your neighbours and people with other worldviews, you don't have to struggle with your sexuality… everything is spelled out for you. And unfortunately we do live in a world where so many people, especially so many young men, feel dislocated. And Islam is just 1:02:57 [?a] [?tap, tab, stub, tub, I need help here], they really take advantage and exploit these young vulnerable [?…].

    Wish people would understand her better in other topics than islam. Ex muslims out of all should understand to look at things from different perspectives.
