Exhibit A: You are a Muslim. Exhibit B: You are a woman. Welcome to the jungle. Humans of the world might have sent a few specimen to the outer space, but when it comes to nurturing prejudices we hold on to them with dear life.

Sure! And you must have majored in Stereotype-Geography.

2. You Must be OK With Violence? Oh, yes. Muslim and violence are synonymous. Is that not so?

Don’t you see one out of every four women is a victim of domestic violence, irrespective of their faith, color or creed?
