At age 10, she sabotaged her arranged marriage by chewing raw aubergine until her teeth turned jet black.
At age 6, her family held her down for female genital mutilation.
At age 50, Egypt’s government threw her in prison.
From her cell—using a smuggled eyebrow pencil on toilet paper—she founded the Arab Women’s Solidarity Association and ignited a feminist movement across the Arab world.
This is Nawal El Saadawi (1931–2021), the godmother of Arab feminism.
Born in a small Egyptian village, she refused to accept a culture that valued boys far above girls. She became a doctor, exposed the horrors of patriarchy in her groundbreaking book Women and Sex, and wrote landmark works like Woman at Point Zero.
Imprisoned under Sadat, censored, threatened with death, and forced into exile, she never stopped fighting—for girls facing FGM and child marriage, for women’s bodies and voices.
She ran for president at 74, wrote over 50 books, and outlived her oppressors.
Her rebellion started with blackened teeth and a defiant smile:
“No. I will choose my own life.”
And she did.
This is the battle we fight with Islamic extremism.
