Among All The 'awards' That I Have

I Support The Rights Of All People To Practice Their Religious Beliefs Privately, But I Oppose The Idea Of Respecting Religions. In Truth, I Have No Respect For Any Religion. I Believe Religion Is Not Compatible With Human Rights, Women's Rights, Or Freedom Of Expression.

The Focus Of My Research Is How Secular Movements Originated In West Asian Countries And Subsequently Changed To Pan-islamic Movements. The Role Of Western Countries In This Aspect Is Also A Part Of The Research.

I Strongly Believe That No One Can Be A True Feminist Without Being An Atheist. All Religions Are Anti-women. No One Can Be Pro-woman While Supporting Anti-woman Dogmas.

I Have Been Writing Poetry Since 1975. My First Poetry Book Was Published In 1986.

I Have Lectured At The U.n. And Travelled Widely, Giving Lectures On Human Rights And Gender Inequalities In Universities. But This Is A Life I Do Not Wish To Live. I Don't Want To Be A Showcase, I Want To Be In A Battlefield Where I Can Stand Beside The Oppressed And The Poor.
