Headscarves and Hymens: Why the Middle East Needs a Sexual Revolution by Mona Eltahawy
5.0
This is a very revealing (no pun intended) look at sexuality and misogyny in the Middle East, but does not leave out references to this being a global pandemic, one that needs to be stopped sooner rather than later. The real life details of misogyny are appalling, disgusting, and should shame every man who has ever mistreated a woman, or stood by to let it happen.
There are multiple references to feminists from various parts of the world, including the Middle East (no, feminism is NOT a Western construct); extra reading material for further edification on this topic of such insidious abuse against half the world based on the results of a chromosome matchup.
Not for the faint-hearted. Or someone deep in denial.
