El-Ghobashy’s relative privilege as an academic at an Ivy League school affects the rhetorical choices she makes in the essay by serving as justification for her thoughts and actions. She is able to express her concern on stereotypes in a logical and academic way that makes her a credible source. It also serves to defy stereotypes.

Therefore, through this harmful line of thinking, many members of society – even subconsciously – have developed this ideation and this preconceived notion regarding Muslim women, thus why stereotyping is so harmful to society as it separates us rather than connects us. Furthermore, as an individual, this statement harms her as it influences the view others have of her, thus influencing her overall sense of self and identity in a negative manner.

Women are also appearing in Middle Eastern parliaments more often like in Kuwait (“Women’s rights take baby steps forward in Mideast”).

My project on monotheistic religions bases itself on the aspect and influence gender roles in Islam and Judaism has on their followers and comparing the two of the religions.
