Abstract:While interest in women criminality in Egypt goes back to the turn of the century, academic concern for studying female offenders appeared several decades later. Early studies on Egyptian women inmates have revealed several characteristics that were confirmed in more recent studies. The typical female offender in Egypt tends to be urbanite, poor, middleaged, married, illiterate, unemployed, and instigated by male associates. Women are more likely to be involved in crimes of morality and drug trafficking while men are disproportionally convicted for both property and violent offenses. The family milieu and social environment play a major part in female delinquency. There is some evidence that women who assume the male role get more involved with law violation.
