I noticed the woman declaring 'I'm she's not ashamed of being a muslim any more, if she replaced the ashamed with 'embarrassed' that would perhaps be better, in my view that would be lot better and put her particular belief on a level pegging with all of the other, superstition based beliefs that must be equally as embarrassing.
