[Reader-list] Fw: Re: (KUWAIT) "Women's election victory attracts crop of headlines"

[Kshmendra Kaul]

I have been told the following:
 
""""" Incidentally, one of the winning women MPs, Aseel el Awadhi, a professor of philosophy in Kuwait University with a strong young following, was sued for blasphemy some time back because she said that there is no basis for veiling women in Islam."""" 
 
Her victory thus would be especially significant alongside that of the other three.
 
The other mail I posted "Female MPs 'must' wear the headscarf" tells us what disabling attitudes and vituperation the contesting women must have faced and will continue to be subjected to.
