    In A Land of Female Eunuchs...

    According to a 2005 Unicef report (http://www.unicef.org/publications/files/FGM-C_final_10_October.pdf), 97% of Egyptian women have been subjected to female genital mutilation, including, assumedly, Dr. Heba Kotb. And yet it is not this that she condemns, but female masturbation (and homosexuality, and sex before marriage, and anal sex after marriage, etc…) That this is what passes for progressivism brings into the sharpest relief how oppressive this world view is, to the point where women themselves help perpetuate this culture of victimization.
