Recenzii
'This is a scholarly yet passionate call for a genuine Arab Spring, one that will free both men and women from an obsessive, unnatural, and destructive definition of family and male honor rooted in a cult of female virginity and fidelity. David Ghanim's work is humane, compassionate, bold, and forward-thinking. It deserves a wide, global audience. The ideas set forth here are even more relevant now precisely because the Middle East is in such profound turmoil.' -Phyllis Chesler, Emerita Professor of Psychology at City University of New York, USA, and author of Women and Madness and An American Bride in Kabul
'A timely addition to scholarship on Muslim women, The Virginity Trap is an intellectually through book on why women's sexual conduct defines every area of their lives. The study contextualizes gender, sexuality, romantic love, and marriage in the Middle East. The author argues that the fear and shame surrounding the loss of virginity prior to marriage condition women to internalize patriarchal control of their sexuality and collaborate with men to restrain and discipline their sexual conduct and life in general.' -Haideh Moghissi, Professor of Sociology and Equity Studies, York University, Canada
