We disagree that the fatwa affects only Muslim women. In the larger picture, an issue which infringes a person's rights is a matter of concern for all of us: Muslims, non-Muslims, men, women, the transgendered and the inter-sexed.

The right to self-determination, freedom of expression in the form of how we dress, speak and behave, and our sexual rights are all in the bundle we call "human rights". Human rights are universal, inalienable, indivisible and inter-related.
