      L C Hey there, well I do not live in Egypt anymore now but I grew up there and lived the first 27 years of my life there.
      Honestly it greatly depends on what “social class” you are coming from, your family background, level of income and education is crucial to how you see things (liberal/conservative) and how comfortable your life is.
      Majority of Egyptians are in general not that religious or they are but sometimes in a superficial way that fortunately doesn’t stick to every idiotic detail that makes life unbearable (eg: Afghanistan-style).
      Gays, as every society, are not that uncommon but they still don’t dare to publicly state it unless it happens within closed circles of like-minded people as it is still considered an “affront” to manhood.

    Btw the Fatimid is much more famous than the Tulunids and the Ikhshidis, the things you mentioned about the Tulunids btw I didn't hear about before.

    Under Nasser, the Aswan High Dam was approved and construction began in 1960. The waters of the lake behind it, Lake Nasser, threatened to inundate many ancient and historic sites. Many of the most important sites were offered to countries which could house them in a proper manner. One of these is the Temple of Dendur in New York; the large room that houses the temple was built specifically to house it, with other Egyptian artifacts sharing the large space. To this day it is one of the most striking of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Egyptian collection.

    Such a shame that scholars translate Mamluk to "slaves", its so wrong on so many levels that its misleading.. they were more like servants.. and had nothing to do with being slaves... they had free will.. free thinking and education..some of them even reached high ranking in military or even became kings..
    The mongolians wrecked havoc every where they went (especially central and mid west of Asia, thats where the Mamluks are from) the result of destruction left so many families dead those who survived became orphans. The Sultans at the time had a hard time with loyalty from local tribesmen. so they took those orphans trained them hard both militarily and spiritually.. since they are not affiliated with any local tribesmen, their only loyalty was to the Sultan.
