Social taboos

I have very limited time to blog right now, but would like to point my readers to two blogposts covering issues that has for long been viewed as taboo issues in society.

Isis writes on Amr Khaled´s latest campaign, to help drug addicts take the huge step towards recovery. The Hamaya Campaign is important, most of all in my view because it will raise awareness levels in society concerning the issue big time, and if the number of users is as high as four million in Egypt out of 10 million in the Middle East, then this is long long overdue. As the writer, i´m mildly skeptical as to the impact on the ones using drugs, but the project is highly commendable.

The other blogpost i want to recommend is by a blogger i just discovered recently. Arima uses the classic Salt N´Pepa song from 1990 to introduce us to another topic of social taboo. Let´s talk!
