Launched on International Women's Day, March 8th 2009, Altmuslimah.com provides a space for compelling comment on gender in Islam from both the male and female, Muslim and non-Muslim, perspectives. "Gender in Islam" has multiple dimensions and evokes a wide multitude of emotions: fear, confusion, defiance, love. Altmuslimah explores all of these dimensions and provides a platform for intra- and inter-community dialogue on a wide variety of gender-related issues. In particular, it looks at the intersection of female and male sexuality and gender identity with society, politics, economics, and culture.
