I was completely unaware of how strict Islam was practiced in this country. The journalist cited Saudi Arabia is so much more strict than Egypt or UAE and others. How could the Western World not be aware of such atrocities. I read a review on Amazon from someone who clearly thought that driving, voting, working, and showing your hair had nothing to do with family happiness. That's the Stone Age talking here folks.
I actually felt afraid that this element is allowed to be so prevalent. I hope that after viewing this film I can accept our differences and respect this culture. But how is this allowed to exist in what I previously thought was a progressive country, an ally of the USA. How could a woman president ever interact with such a backward thinking group?
Makes one ponder why these dudes are so deathly afraid of women to enforce so many absurd, arcane, bizarre laws. I watched a show on TV with Anthony Bourdain touring the country and these issues never came up. I guess if I just wanted to sit on my ass and eat bonbons all day and let men be my slaves and drive me everywhere and take me out and never have to do anything, guess this might be the ideal Shangra-La. What a disaster, but bravo for providing this insight! Invaluable.
PS - If you want to compare hormone issues in men vs women, hands down MEN WIN for becoming uncontrollable, maniacal, irrational, idiotic, and plain f'n stupid!
