Did you guys even read the article that this thread included (as a link) and was intended to promote?
My guess is not. You probably just read one of the two "favorite quotes" that I excerpted, and started off, like so many others on here.
PLEASE read the freaking article if you're going to comment on this thread. The VAST majority of it is NOT about the Gulf or the Arab world. It is about the predicament of women GLOBALLY.
It is NOT about whether Saudi women can drive or work in lingerie stores. It is about sexual exploitation, physical abuse and torture, economic oppression, denial of educational opportunities, etc.

put the focus on Saudi?
