1. I read this article.
2. It got me thinking about if what she wrote about a specific group (Muslims professionals in the US) is also true for other professionals people such as the likes that post on QL.

You could have also pointed out that the article is about Americans, but that just wouldn't be snarky enough would it? :-)
Tinkerbell--I wouldn't apply this to all men, but it shows how insecure SOME men can be. In cultures where this sort of thing is the norm, I think it highlights expectations of the subordinate status of women.
