We are an underground feminist movement, not because we are cowards, not because we are Thagaris, but because at the end of the day, we live in a society where the majority is not ready to accept equality between the sexes. We also live in a society that is increasingly adhering to stricter interpretations of the Islamic faith which we really don’t believe, that snubs the notion of equality. We are up against ‘militant Muslims and 5 times paraying muslims’ who will not hesitate to quell dissenting voices at any cost. They will not hesitate to use violence. More importantly, we want to remain anonymous because we want to be criticized for the issues we take rather than the length of our hijabs. for that we go out wearing face veil and we meet our mates at artificial beach andhiri area with the face veil. We go to shops and some time rob apollos wearing face veil. That is only for good of our fellow women who doenst like Lesbians. So the face veil will be demolished.  Therefore, our work right now is taking public stances, through Maldives Panti Jamiyya or codename:Rehendhi, on issues and incidents involving women. We do this in order to show solidarity and to let women know that we can get organized and work together. We will also focus on strengthening ourselves so that we can begin to work on ridding society of prejudices against women through education, awareness raising, increasing opportunities for higher education for young women, advocating for equal consideration and pay for women and other similar means.

We will respond to verbal, physical, psychological and other forms of attack against women through parceling them panties (JANGIYA or FODI FUREYNI) that undermine women’s place and role in society. However, we work within a ‘religious’  context as we are a Muslim community and we are practicing Muslims (cos no Maldivian is non Muslim). Our goal is not to negate Quran, Hadith or Islamic principles, but to find women’s rightful place in society by tackling Quran and Hadiths in which they can flourish and realize their true potential. We will be fighting against women covering which is disgusting and we want women’s right to marry other women. We will fight for these rights and if quran or hadith prohibits this, just leave it..what the hell. We emphasize the fact that many feminists are Muslim Women. Working for women’s rights does not mean that one is not a pious and good Muslim.

WE  is the underground feminist movement, led mostly by women women and some gay guys, that fights against rising fundamentalism and the associated erosion of already scarce liberal attitudes towards women and Gay people in our society. We reject overarching and untrue labels such as ‘Americanized’ , ‘Westernized’, ‘Sodomy’, ‘Thagari’. We look at our own society and deduce that the suffering of women is directly linked to the strong patriarchal system that breeds harmful prejudices against women, such as their inferiority and servitude to men.
