    i mean it is just unbelievable that women are not allowed to drive!
    so well done to the group of women putting pressure on the king!
    thankfully groups of women worldwide are getting together in countries where womens rights are not recognised and taking sizeable risks in bringing their plight to public attention.
    i just wonder how long it would have taken to get a similar subject seen by the king if it were with regard to mens rights? 1 minute, 30 seconds!

    Good point, coming to think of it, it may be better to keep this ban in place:D.

    Saudi Arabia is a terrible stone age country in numerous ways. Woman not driving is just a small detail. There should be applied pressure from the world community. The US will not do that because they are to busy licking the saudis ass getting support in the war and so on. But the rest of the world should act.

    Once women start driving they will want to vote.

    Man, these little whores are being pretty pushy if you ask me. They want to drive? My god.
    Next thing you know they will want to vote and be able to choose who they marry. This is a very slippery slope!

    Islam allows this. So, no problem over there.

    I think Saudi Arabia is very smart about the women not driving rule.
    I mean have you ever seen a women drive? It's scary.

    This will never happen. If the king is seen as a progressive his life would be in danger.

    Its better if they can make roads where only woman can drive. Then we will not risk any interaction between men and woman witch will of course lead to sex.

    Islam good, you no understand, because you read no Quran.
    Quran wants good for women. Women stay home easy life for them. If they go out they must has personal security guard - man brother or fother.
    If not other muslim men think she's looking for sex and they take her and give her such. She knows she wanted it because if she didn't she would have 4 male witnesses to tell the judge she was raped.

    Saudi Arabia is a leader in Islam and they know what is right and wrong better than anybody in the world. They have Mecca in their country you don't in yours.
    Islam is very good if you don't beleive in it you're Kaffir. You should convert to Islam right now if you want to go to Mecca. Then you feel real good righteous muslim man.
