Don't make assumptions about people you don't know. Most Muslim men may be male chauvinists, but that doesn't mean this specific man is. All indications are that he is a good man who cares about his country.

A true fundamentalist Muslim wouldn't have let his wife go on the stage at all. Her hair and neck wouldn't be showing, and she wouldn't have makeup on. These people are clearly not fundamentalists.
