Is it Time to Change Sharia Law’s Perspective on Female Rationality?
<p>I heard this repeated often, to justify unequal treatment in relation to my brother when I was growing up.</p>
<p>He was ‘worth’ sending to private school, myself and my sisters were not. He was attentively listened to, while we, his three older sisters were not. He was treated like the head of the household, when our father was absent, despite the fact that it was we girls who ran the family business while he was out playing football!</p>
