Women Pushing Back

The mistreatment of women in Egypt has evolved into the birth pains of their cyber revolution. With the safety of anonymity and audience of millions offered by the Internet, Egyptian women have found their megaphone to the world. Many women have begun to report and record their own experiences of surviving modern Egyptian society. From sexual harassment and torture to job discrimination and rape, more and more women are saying "no" to the cultural standards of what is permissible while forming a global network that pushes their plight past the sloughing misogynistic lens so they may no longer be silenced.

The following blogs by Egyptian women are but a taste:

• Wounded Female From Cairo
  
• Freedom for Egyptians
• being an egyptian girl
• A New Beginning
