In 1998, I spent three months in Tunisia studying Arabic and taking a much-needed holiday from my Ph. D. studies. An Australian woman of mixed heritage (including Cherokee Indian), my multilingualism, physical smallness, black hair and eyes, and yellow-toned skin allow me to blend in, or at least to defy categorisation, in a range of cultures. As a woman travel-ling alone in that region, I attracted an inordinate amount of attention but was also, perhaps due to my liminal status as an anomaly, privy to some insightful confessions and revelations from Tunisians and Algerians I met there [Book Review]

We were in the kitchen, my mother and I, when she turned to me and said,“Did you know Amreekans keep medicine in the bathroom?” I waited, not quite sure where she was going with this. She looked at me as if I was slow and then continued,“They keep it in the bathroom, and then they eat it.” There was triumph in her voice when she added,“And they say we're dirty.”. [REVIEW]Bushra Rehman - 2009 - In Olga Gershenson Barbara Penner (ed.), Ladies and Gents: Public Toilets and Gender.
