FILE - In this Sunday, Feb. 13, 2011 file photo, Egyptian women protesters sit on the ground while reading the Quran, Islam's holy book, in front army soldiers at Tahrir Square in downtown Cairo, Egypt. As demonstrations first swelled in Yemen, the regime distributed a photo of female activist Tawakkul Kamran in a protest test with a male colleague _ cutting out others around them _ to taint her for sinfully sitting alone with a man. Kamran's Nobel peace win draws attention to the role of women in the Arab Spring uprisings, who have rebelled not only against dictators but against a traditional, conservative mindset that fears women as an agent of change.
