I remember when the wave of Jennifer Lopez, Salma Hayek and these beautiful Hispanic women came into light, and I looked up to them and I loved them, but I was like, 'Where are Middle Eastern women?'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I do fairly represent Middle Eastern women.
The Middle Eastern woman is sophisticated; she is modern. She knows fashion more than anyone else, and she is really sexy, and she does know how to live fashion, and I think we can all learn from each other.
One cannot understand what's happening to women in the Middle East if they don't realize that the mothers are a strong, progressive force. The mothers push the daughters to get out of the harem, to get the education, to achieve what they could not even dream of.
I'm amazed by the misconceptions about Muslim women and the Arab world that I hear, and that really does hurt me.
Living in the West, you see how there's only two versions of how Asian men are supposed to be. Either they're very nice, yuppie husbands with children in ads, or they're IT geeks.
It would be impossible to be a woman in Western culture and not have your own issues about your image and what you look like.
Western women have been controlled by ideals and stereotypes as much as by material constraints.
As is the case with many Middle Eastern nations, women are nowhere near equal to men when it comes to basic freedoms and rights that we take for granted every day.
I never know where women are coming from.
I like American women. They do things sexually Russian girls never dream of doing - like showering.
