That's interesting because up until now most of the things I heard about it were bad.

Call me old-fashioned but women voters?

Black people on the regular folk's bus?

Automatic carriages instead of horses?

Not worshipping the Sun & the Moon and FEARING them? j/k

Were you aware that voting in general isnt allowed in Saudi Arabia because its a Monarchy?

There are some recent changes are far as voting goes in local municipalities. But its too young to mean anything serious.

And even tho there isnt a specific law that states women cant drive, the majority of people, both men and women, dont like the idea very much because they think it can cause immoral behaviour.

The new generation certainly doesnt think so, infact, theres a rising number of middle class people in Saudi now, and they cant afford to keep a full time driver in the house.

Your obsessed with Muslims aren't you? Ok yes I know that women can't drive cars in Saudi Arabia as I am married to a Saudi man. Why should they be allowed to drive? Saudi is crowded enough without women driving around as well. Also women can vote in Saudi they just have to have proof of an education before they can vote.

And did you know that American women weren't allowed to vote until the 1920's?
And did you know that adults who are allowed to vote in the United States aren't allowed to consume alcohol until they are 21, but that they can still die for their country in war?

There are lots of things that seem unequitable in the world, but that it's not the place for the United States or other countries to change them. Other countries, forcing their way of life upon smaller or less powerful countries is imperialism. We fought the cold war with the soviet union over that. Hitler tried it. So did many other nefarious leaders.

Human rights violations may exist in some countries, but it is not within the rights of other countries to enforce change beyond what may be done politically. I'm sure that you'll find many women in Saudi Arabia who would find the way that American or Western women live quite horrible.

Women are also worth have of a man in court and for inheritance. You cannot build any religious structure that is un-Islamic, non-muslims are not allowed to enter Mecca or Medina, leaving Islam and insulting Islam are punishable by death, religious police patrol the streets with rods and beat people who don't pray, drink alcohol, disobey Islamic dresscode, and talk to nonrelated members of the opposite sex. Also they will amputate your hands for stealing.
