Sexist, macho, violent stereotypes which denigrate women who are portrayed mostly as sex objects, sufferring mothers and victims and relevant only when they are useful to the mail characters.
These myths of Israeli and Palestinian macho are self serving and perpetuate stereotypes which are insulting and harmful to Israelis and Palestinian men and women.
PS - I am an Israeli, living in Israel, mother of Israeli soldiers and teacher of Jewish and Arab adolescents.
