The common trauma people in Islamic countries,
Muslim households or communities shared. There's no such thing as Islamophobia, a phobia by
definition is irrational, unreasonable fear. The Islamotrauma people experienced makes it very rational to fear
Islam. This new term is coined by a Iranian woman.
"We’ve lived under a brutal theocracy for 43 years and have Islamotrauma."
"My Islamotrauma is that I was molested by my uncle continuously at the ages of 4-5."
"As an Iranian queer woman, I have been the victim of Islamotrauma for 22 years (and it's still going on). I was forbidden of going to classes that had boy participants. My
parents are extremely homophobic and every day I had to sit through their hatred for my people."
"My brother received 80 lashes for drinking
alcohol at his
friend’s wedding 15 years ago. We all have Islamotrauma."
