Source Notes

In May 2021 Giovanni Corte emailed "Recently I asked Mona Eltahawy for her birth info and she kindly shared it! She was born on July 28, 1967 in Port Said (it can also show up as "Bur Sa'id"), Egypt, at noon!"

Sy Scholfield notes that Eltahawy gave this data on Twitter: "Noon on Friday July 28 1967" (when asked by Corte for her time of birth) [1], and Eltahawy has clarified "I was born on July 28, 1967. My parents registered me on Aug. 1, 1967" [2].

Wikipedia incorrectly gives her birth date as "August 1, 1967."
