The only thing I agree with in the article is about how Muslim women are only ever seen as two things - the burqa-clad woman or the belly dancer. The moderate, modern muslim woman is never really discussed or portrayed in the media.

Other than that, I don’t think her story is remarkable or anything. You don’t have to be a Muslim in order to be scared of telling your parents that you are gay and do not want to follow their religion. A kid from any religion and culture has the same fears going into that conversation with their parents.
