Beautiful! Yes, I'm a comparatist. I'm studying Arab women writers. This is perfect though. I'll add it to my reading list. Thank you so much! <3

I'm being honest. My adviser, Dr. Dimit, has this thing with "disclosing any previous alumnus's work." Pfftt... I do know someone who has a past thesis I can look at. The only thing is, he's in science, I'm in humanities. But I guess it's better than nothing.

Thank you so much, you guys. To be honest, I got worried. I didn't know if I was allowed to see sample theses. My school is a bit hush-hush about that sort of thing.

I asked what books can help me with the process of writing the thesis. How-to books and whatnot.

I desperately need help...and caffeine. What are some good recommended books that can help me jumpstart the broken car that is my brain?

Hey, guys. Last question, I promise! So, I took your advice and removed Ann Coulter. You're totally right. I don't want my scholarly paper to sound like a rant. I do want to write about Muslim women and the stereotypes we face. But I definitely need an angle. I wanted to deconstruct the stereotypes on forced veiling, jihad, forced marriages, FGM, honor killings, etc. However, how can I make an angle? My thesis at this point is, "Islam is a feminist religion, one that is misinterpreted and misused to perpetuate patriarchal societies." This doesn't sound edgy enough. It needs more of an angle. I wanted to start off by talking about the history of Muhammad, then how these cultural practices came to be associated with Islam. HELP! I'm slowly going insane...or I'm already insane, but any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, GeoDUDE!.

It's about Ann Coulter's misconceptions about Islam. I want to convey that Ann Coulter perceives Islam as a threat to civilization in a process known as "Orientalism." My thesis debunks all of Coulter's anti-Islam remarks and suppositions. It's basically a research paper on women in Islam using different dimensions as the body paragraphs: Jihad, Honor Killings, Polygamy, Forced Veiling, etc. But my advisor says that this would sound like a long book. I would love some advice on how I can refine my topic or limit my focus to one specific question? What do you guys think?
