Re: [wanita-muslimah] Di mana muslimah Spanyol?

saya suka kalau mbak fero, mama mia, mbak mei, mbak tri, bicara. dulu juga
ada mbak rita, herni, anita tamara, mbak aisha yasmina, pada ke mana yah ?
terus terang emang lumayan males sih kalau topiknya terlalu ke politik dan
konflik (serius khas laki laki ..... errrr, orang serius biasanya pakai
nikon ... hehehe).

karena ramainya topik seperti itu, pintu bagi tempatnya wanita bicara ini
jadi kayak kebuka separo, ketutup separo. belum jadi tempat ynag asik buat
perempuan bicara. (mungkin yah).

perempuan, tetapi di sinilah tempat perempuan bicara!"*
