Saudi Arabia : Women can vote. But men must drive them

Small steps in Saudi Arabia. Also a man has to walk the women in to vote |
A step in the right direction is still positive I suppose.
|
Does "walk them in" mean that they actually enter the voting booth and see them vote? Because if so, that sort of just sounds like men with wives get two votes... :hehe:
Though that's the same here I guess if the man has his woman properly trained and on a tight leash :nono: |

Yes into the Room but then the Lady votes alone in the booth Its Normal for Men to be with any stray women in Saudi Arabia |
1,000 women have stood for election, they had to campaign behind screens, if only we could adopt this for Nigel Farage

Saudi arabica is currently pissed off because of the new shale gas technology america has invented.
**** the middle east. i know donald trump is only talking about a wall on the mexican border now, but if he wins and gets a second term, maybe he can build a wall around europe and make the arabs pay for it! more walls, less hate. |
I don't care if it makes me a bad person for saying so, but this whole ideology that men are superior to women (in all aspects) is so wrong and disgusting to me. I'm all for respecting other cultures/religion, but a religion/culture that doesnt let women drive or even show their face is just so wrong and backwards to me.

In the matter of progress, I would rather have the right to vote before the right to drive anyway. This is how change takes place. Maybe women will vote with their men now... But in the long run, if the women in Saudi Arabia want to change their fates, votes from women with independent thought is the way to go.

It's one thing respecting their laws it's a completely different thing to agree with them, but until they are willing to change their laws we have to respect them, try kissing your partner in the street whether they be male or female in Dubai see how you get on. |
I will not respect any countries laws that show intolerance towards anyone that's different to themselves.
|
So women will be able to vote to allow themselves to drive and a multitude of other things now. You don't get anywhere unless you encourage countries that do make changes

You are saying you respect the rules when it means women have no voice, or gays can be beaten? how can you respect that? just because it's their "tradition"??? that is a very evil way of thinking. Shame on you. |

It seems ridiculous to me that one half of the population is treated so much differently from the other half, simply because they lack a penis.

So women can vote (so long as the men allow them to and more than likely vote the way they are told to vote) They are still living in the middle ages.

I think this voting system is an absolute sham. A woman can only vote if her husband, brother or farther escort her to the polling station. Lots of husbands, brothers and fathers won't want their women to vote and simply won't escort them which means only the more liberal families will use the female vote.
They have only provided a certain amount of polling stations where women can vote which means many will have to travel great distances to get there. I don't agree that these women choose this culture and actually I don't believe a lot of the men choose this oppression for their women either. Saudi law is dictated by religion right down to the last detail and men (there have been many) who have tried to speak out against female oppression, risk either being murdered or imprisoned. When a woman's destiny is dependent on the man’s goodness and generosity we have to accept that many of these women are nothing more than slaves. |
