Abstract
While the challenge Arab American women face balancing the American way of life with the Arab culture is an unacknowledged issue in our nation’s society, these women have discovered their strength and stability to protect their family, honor their bodies, embrace womanhood, and prove their worth to not only those in their communities, but to themselves. Despite Arab American women having suffered emotional hardships, gender stereotypical roles, undesirable marriage expectations, misrepresentation in society, and mental health instability; they have been known to persevere, thrive, and uplift themselves in a world where they do not belong.
