      ab: This article focuses on the experiences of young Arab-Palestinian women in Israel who use feminist services. The mixed-method longitudinal study followed participants in a feminist support program from 2019 to 2022 and uses both qualitative and quantitative analysis to examine the development of feminist awareness and its associations with family and personal risks. The results reveal that increased feminist awareness is associated with greater family risk, reflecting the inherent tensions between feminist empowerment and patriarchal social structures. Participants struggled to reconcile their newfound feminist identities with family expectations and societal constraints. The discussion situates these findings within broader sociopolitical and cultural frameworks and describes the adaptive potential of culturally contextualized Western feminist practices in traditional societies.
