What? Everyone's posting good links!

Her words sounded so simple, but the threat they implied was so cruel that I realized for the first time that maybe "size 6" is a more violent restriction imposed on women than is the Muslim veil in sibylla's journal, linked to by ysabel.

I really want to read some of Mernissi's books. I stumbled across her a few months ago through the feminist_otd feed. Thank you for the link! I'd never read anything that substantial by her before.
