Egypt: Harassment against women is all the same
Rantings of an Arab Chick writes: “I read these sadly familiar accounts of sexual harassment from women living in Cairo.

السكوت
مش هسكت
هتكلم
قال إيه بيقولك
إكتبي بالرمزية يافوزية
يإلا تخدي سنتين في قضية
تلفيقة وملكيش فيها يا فوزية
إكتبي زي مزاجك مايقولك
ماهو إلهامك ومشاعرك
بقيلك يافوزية
ماحدش حينجيكي غير أفكارك
ومبادئك وإيمانك
وطز في الرمزية
والسكوت والسلبية
ومن النهارده أنا غير البشر إلي حواليه
مش هكتب بالرمزية ولاهتصنع بالتفاهية
أناهكتب من منظوري
لأن الظلم مش راح يكون مصير البشرية

بفتكروه شىء عبيط

والبيت أهو إتخرب

أتاري أبويا وأبوه كمان كانوا ليهم فيه
وأتاري بيتنا ده من زمان محروق
وغيرناه
بس بردوه إتحرق
طب إيه العمل
يبقى بلاش منه الكبريت
قلت والضلمة ياسيد العاقلين read more »
