why write about a culture you don't understand.

I haven't recieved a reply from her as of yet perhaps because I was overly critical about the story topic. Basically I was unhappy about the way that she wishes to follow through with this story which will further fuel misconceptions held about muslim culture.

I agree with you sis, i can just imagine the story the bengali boy and girl go out with eachother, want to marry but their 'strict' parents won't allow it because of their religion, want them to have an arranged marriage etc,
