Arab Women

The psychology of Arab women is messed up. So is the psychology of Arab men. The same goes for western gender psychologies. And also human kind.

Women have been and under all forms of government, religions, through all stages of history, suppressed & discriminated against. But that's not what I'm about to write about. I want to write about the way out.

All we need is respect. Self respect. We women view ourselves as weak and thus enforce society's patriarchal view that we are. But originally it stems from us. As long as we feel powerless, we will be. The common mistake is we search for our power every where except within ourselves. Our very own individual selves. We look for externalities to support us. But the real power is inside you. Claim it to be yours! but that's only the beginning. If you don't use it to improve your life and the lives of those around you, you have failed your purpose. Not as a female, but as a human.
