[QUOTE]Originally posted by QueenMojo: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Dalia*: [qb] The [URL=http://www.ecwronline.org/]Egyptian Center for Women's Rights[/URL] has been organizing a [URL=http://www.ecwronline.org/english/harassment.htm]campaign[/URL] for some time against the persistent verbal and physical violence against women in Cairo. It is possible to contain it and deter it; it has virtually vanished from several Gulf countries as a result of increased police vigilance, fines, and the publicizing of the pictures of perpetrators. Something like that should be done here. Just because the men of Egypt are sexually frustrated, poor, and oppressed does not mean they can oppress others. Let's do something - go volunteer, anything. I will. We women are Egyptians too and the streets are just as much ours as theirs. http://forsoothsayer.blogspot.com/2006/10/mass-sexual-assault-in-downtown-cairo.html [/qb][/QUOTE]I keep thinking about this "the streets are just as much ours as theirs". Go and volunteer or report. I'm dreaming about something else. What about a demonstration? With Egyptians women and foreigners, covered or non covered, girls and women, mothers, single women and daughters. Women demonstrates for peace, for democracy, for Islam, for Palestine, Irak, Lebanon etc...Maybe they can also demonstrate for their own rights at once. [/QB][/QUOTE]
