Mr. Wingham asserts that the Western news media portray all Muslim women as being the same, and also in a stereotypical, patriarchal way. He also believes that, as a result, cases of activism by Muslim women are not accurately reported. Mr. Wingham maintains that feminist thought and movements vary in each Muslim country, as they each take place in a different cultural context. He uses Turkey and Iran as examples.
