gizae, Egyptian women are beautiful. Your choices are just one part of the total representation of Egyptian women! If all that is what beauty is (of face), I have a lot to learn. I do not deny that a beautiful make a man faint but that is the skill of beauty? A distraction, useful at times but at other occasions, a problem. IP: Logged |

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder-- Just curious as to why you selected her in particular? What about Miss Egypt and Ruby-the-Singer? I would say the girl does have a lot of inner beauty and calm pretty face.

gizae, Thanks for the fotos. My preference is for the one titled "Dark Beauty". Miss Eqypt has too much makeup, her face is too "puffed up" and too round. Eye of the Beholder!! is right. IP: Logged |

It's a picture of Lilly. She's an Egyptian who briefly posted here. I think she said her family is from Upper Egypt.

It is not because of her color, that I thought she does not look Egyptian, but because of the way she is dressed and her extra heavy makeup. I believe even in Egypt, and especially in Cairo she would be thought of as an exotic dancer/entertainer. If you look at the pictures that I posted, you'll see that I have selected people of many different complexions and hues. The only criterea that I used, is that they had to be at least a little attractive and native Egyptians. Would you care to share some other pictures of Upper Egyptians or Aswani Egyptian Women, please be my guest. thanks! p.s. Only women or girls please thanks, no men in drag!

Somalis have big behinds? Somali and Habesha women actually have the smallest lower area of any African women I seen. I agree that Somali females typically are dime pieces[this is american slang term for fine],but I have not really seen many that were stacked in the back. IP: Logged |

This is her today THE ABOVE PICTURE OF THIS LEADING LADY DESERVES A LITTLE MORE INFO, AS TO WHO SHE IS AND WHY WE SHOULD ALL LEARN A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT HER LIFE---PLEASE READ, ENJOY!!
Nawal Saadawi by Jennifer McBride Nawal El Saadawi is a leading Egyptian feminist, sociologist, medical doctor and militant writer on Arab women's problems. She is one of the most widely translated contemporary Egyptian writers, with her work available in twelve languages. Nawal El Saadawi was born in 1931 in Kafr Tahla, a small village outside of Cairo. El Saadawi was raised in a large household with eight brothers and sisters. Her family was relatively traditional, El Saadawi was "circumcised" at the age of six, and yet somewhat progressive, El Saadawi's father insisted that all of his children be educated. El Saadawi describes her mother as "a potential revolutionary whose ambition was buried in her marriage." Her mother died when she was 25, and her father shortly thereafter, both unable to witness the incredible accomplishments their daughter went on to make. Despite limitation imposed by both religious and colonial oppression on rural women, El Saadawi attended the University of Cairo and graduated in 1955 with a degree in psychiatry. After completing her education, El Saadawi practiced psychiatry and eventually rose to become Egypt's Director of Public Health. El Saadawi met her husband, Sherif Hetata, also a doctor, while working in the Ministry of Health, where the two shared an office together. Hetata shared El Saadawi's leftist views, himself having been imprisoned for 13 years for his participation in a left-wing opposition party. Since she began to write over 25 years ago, El Saadawi's books (27 in all) have concentrated on women, particularly Arab women, their sexuality and legal status. From the start, her writings were considered controversial and dangerous for the society, and were banished in Egypt. As a result, El Saadawi was forced to publish her works in Beirut, Lebanon. In 1972, her first work of non-fiction, Women and Sex, which as the title suggests, dealt with the highly taboo subject of women and sexuality, and also the sensitive subjects of politics and religion. This publication evoked the anger of highly placed political and theological authorities, and the Ministry of Health was pressured into dismissing her. Under similar pressures she lost her post as Chief Editor of a health journal and as Assistant General Secretary in the Medical Association in Egypt. From 1973 to 1976 she researched women and neurosis in the Ain Shams University's Faculty of Medicine. Her results were published in Women and Neurosis in Egypt in1976, which included 20 in-depth case studies of women in prisons and hospitals. This research also inspired her novel Woman at Point Zero, which was based on a female death row inmate convicted of murdering her husband that she met while conducting the research. In 1977, she published her most famous work, The Hidden Face of Eve, which covered a host of topics relative to Arab women such as aggression against female children and female genital mutilation, prostitution, sexual relationships, marriage and divorce and Islamic fundamentalism. From 1979-180 El Saadawi was the United Nations Advisor for the Women's Program in Africa (ECA) and the Middle East (ECWA). Later in 1980, as a culmination of the long war she had fought for Egyptian women's social and intellectual freedom, an activity that had closed all avenues of official jobs to her, she was imprisoned under the Sadat regime, for alleged "crimes against the state." El Saadawi stated "I was arrested because I believed Sadat. He said there is democracy and we have a multi-party system and you can criticize. So I started criticizing his policy and I landed in jail." In spite of her imprisonment, El Saadawi continued to fight against oppression. El Saadawi formed the Arab Women's Solidarity Association in 1981. The AWSA was the first legal, independent feminist organization in Egypt. The organization has 500 members locally and more than 2,000 internationally. The Association holds international conferences and seminars, publishes a magazine and has started income-generating projects for women in rural areas. The AWSA was banned in 1991 after criticizing US involvement in the Gulf War, which El Saadawi felt should have been solved among the Arabs. Although she was denied pen and paper, El Saadawi continued to write in prison, using a "stubby black eyebrow pencil" and "a small roll of old and tattered toilet paper." She was released in 1982, and in 1983 she published Memoirs from the Women's Prison, in which she continued her bold attacks on the repressive Egyptian government. In the afterword to her memoirs, she notes the corrupt nature of her country's government, the dangers of publishing under such authoritarian conditions and her determination to continue to write the truth:
El Saadawi continues to devote her time to being a writer, journalist and worldwide speaker on women's issues. Her current project is writing her autobiography, laboring over it for 10 hours a day. [This message has been edited by Giza-Rider (edited 28 September 2005).] IP: Logged |

By the way Gizzy talks in this forum the man is obviously crazy, so I am not that surprised by what HE calls 'beautiful'! You know what they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but damn! By the rating of dimes, these girls are pennies!! I'm surprised cuz I've seen many Arab/light-skinned Middle-Eastern looking Egyptians that look a hell of a lot better than the ones Gizzy posted! I live down south close to predominantly black areas and know lots of black people, so I'm familiar with the 'big/ghetto booty'. I also live near a Somali community and know folks there. And judging from what I've seen, all I can say is that although Somali women are covered up I can still make out that they are packing a little in the behind but not as much as most black American women. Of course those Somali women that are skinny don't have any, but I've seen my share of curvy ones. As far as Ethiopians, it is the same thing except every now and then I do see one or a couple packing the big round ones! Why is that I wonder? LOL@ Ausar! I need a dyme that's top of da line, thick hips, slim waist, and a big behind!! [This message has been edited by Djehuti (edited 28 September 2005).] IP: Logged |

Oh and just to let you know, Southeast Asian women tend to have more curves than Asian women from more northern areas. I don't know why that is. Chinese and Japs just don't pack as much as Thais, Vietnamese, or even Flip gals... IP: Logged |
