Saudi Arabia

is it fair women need to be escorted by a man and can't show body parts. why? that must be hell on earth

Lots of things aren't fair even in countries like the us, uk, France and Germany. The real problem in SA is the Sharia law that extends far beyond what women can wear and the complete lack of freedom of speech against the gov't or state religion. Also the rampant nepotism that unless you are somehow related to the royal family you can only advance so far in any area. What's even worse is how the western media has completely overlooked all of this just because they have been deemed a us ally in the region.

No, it's not fair.

Because the men there are cowards.

I'm sure it feels that way sometimes.

Yeah.

In Saudi Arabia, a woman can't travel with a random male stranger if he's not a part of her family (either her spouse or brother). There is an actual identification card that tells whether or not the female is related to the male that she's walking with. There are many police officers and religious authorities who create checkpoints and stop random women to check their ID cards if they're walking with a male.

It's only fair because the US needs oil.

This is too depressing for me to get into right now. I may come unload later & lay some anti Islamic hate speech.

Its their Rules we cant do something

Eh.

@kuroimugetsu: Does that mean no sexy time? :-(

Sharia law. Sexist.

@tomofukuoka: it's disgusting man

i'm not up to date in politics I don't watch the news and didn't watch the videos show above but religion is a huge factor in Saudi Arabia to my understanding. In addition they have different society than america and shouldn't be held to the same social norms.
