I have been thinking and advocating everything you say within this post most of my adult life. You somehow say it better than I could, which is just fascinating. I’m definitely going to share this (even though I know you wrote it a while ago.

1. Those who confuse liberalism as ideology with a lifestyle; thinking that having a drink would make them liberals while they maintain their close-minded bigoted views of the world and everyone else. Ironically, they are the same as those who think rituals of a religion, sans any spirituality, would make pious people of them.

2. Those apply a sort of liberal/secular fanaticism, banishing anyone who doesn’t subscribe to their definition of liberalism (ideology and lifestyle) from their exclusive heaven of pseudo intellectualism. Again, they are like the same religious fanatics they always criticize, unwelcoming of any thought that deviates from their strict (divine) interpretation of religion/liberalism.

Like you, both get on my nerves, especially with their offensive, dismissive attitude.

Brilliant post Razan :)

Why should these to be related? Drinking and having fun is a personal lifestyle. An Islamic state is a system of public governance, not a name of a nightclub or a vodka brand.

Allow me to have my own replies at what these kids keep saying:

“An Arab blogger at the Arab bloggers conference asked me how could a woman like me who’s not veiled supports Hamas and Hezballa”

Because Hamas and Hezballa are about grassroots resistance towards a just cause and not about being vieled or not veiled ya hmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar lol

“But to some liberals, sex is the taboo you should seek breaking it, just for the heck of it.”

Sex is a way of making love, energized by great passion. Its not about female and male organs being liberated. They already are in everyone’s personal space.

“To them, to liberals, a woman should follow western, I mean “universal” values of being a free woman: wearing less clothes, drinking alcohol, eating pork, having sex and partying all night long on the weekends.”

A woman should be allowed to follow whatever makes her comfortable and happy. Albeit veil or not veil, drink or no drink, pork or lamb, having sex or abstaining, coming home at 3 a.m or sleeping at 7 p.m. Nothing should dicate her lifestyle except her own self. This is called Logic 101.

And my favorite part: “He said: “I have the right to kiss you, and you have the right to refuse”. What can you possibly say to this guy?”

Next time tell him: I have the right to kick you in the balls, and you have the right to scream in pain :D

I don’t think you’ll need help in replies, but in case you do let me know. I’d enjot it lol

I do not see why it is so complicated for everyone to understand that a female, just like a male, has the right to decide whatever she wishes to do in any way she finds suitable. She has a mind she can use and a heart that would guide her through. I don’t see why there is a fear of personal freedom when it comes to a female, yet a great lust for control and domination over her. It’s either that they do not trust the female or they do not trust their own selves. I believe it is the latter.

Well said 

بصراحة أتوق لنوع حواري مثل هذا الذي يحاول مع طول الأيام الوصول إلى الحقيقة في عصر الظنون بالرغم من كل الغشاوات التي تعمي بصائرنا عن الحق، مازلت أتابع بشغف أصداء ذلك الهامش الذي يمكن لنا أن نضخمه من خلال حرية تنتزع من أيادي المتحكمين بغض النظر عن اعتباراتهم التي باتت معرقلا لتحضرنا ومنها رزانياتك الجريئة أحيانا والمستفزة كثيرا لكنها تضع اليد على الجرح، الكل في هذا الزمان مخطئ لأنه يمارس الضياع الممنهج ولايريد أن يسمع للآخر ولهذا يسود جو عدائي بين كل الفئات سواء الإسلاميين أو العلمانيين.

Let alone the pressure practiced in their groups on any person holding on to what they believe in.
I can’t thank you enough for the analysis! amazing!
