On Saturday night, I said fuck the patriarchy in sequins in #Sydney at #UNSWideas via @UNSWCentreIdeas at @Carriageworks. The youngest people in the audience were 10yo & 12yo sisters brought by their dad to hear me talk #7necessarysins. I signed a book for them.
There were also at least three queer Muslim women. As I was taking a picture with one woman and her daughter, the mother pointed to her daughter and proudly said “She’s an 18yo Muslim who just came out to her parents.” Her dad was taking pictures of us. #unswideas #Sydney
There was an Egyptian-Australian man who asked me to sign my book for his daughter. An Egyptian-Australian woman who brought her daughter. Another Egyptian-Australian woman who asked me to sign books for her son and daughters. Lots of love from fellow Egyptians! #unswideas
