“All people are mixed blood, the more mixed you are the better.”

“My identity is not fixed,” she [Nawal El Saadawi] says. “It is not an iron jacket but it is changing and is multiple and multiplying. I have mixed blood from Africa, Asia and Europe till Iceland; from Ancient Egyptian polytheism to Hindu philosophy to monotheistic religions. All people are mixed blood, the more mixed you are the better.”
