Saudi Government establishing women-only cities

If anything this is a bid to further curtail womens rights. For Saudi women, driving is taboo, owning property is illegal, as is going outdoors without a male escort. Female victims of rape are prosecuted for adultery and the punishment (whipping and prison) is on par with the punishment for homosexuality.

Womens only cities is an attempt to constrain the rights of Saudi women, not grant them any privileges.

$1000 says women wont be conceiving, planning, designing, building, or maintaining that womens city.

I think this is the idea of the men to get the women out of their hair, shut them up, and/or to show them what life will be like without men.

At least knowing where to get laid should be pretty straight forward now.

bizzare

I think this is great! It will give the women a safe place to discuss female rights in their country. I know that segregation is not a permanent solution but it will help the women gain confidence in themselves and their voice as a gender.

Considering how messed up the ME is this may actually be a good thing.

They've already got a few Muslim-only cites, this seems perfectly in line with their ignorant outlook.

If anything this will be an interesting experiment, it'll be interesting to see how it plays out.

Hmmm .... I wonder ... are women going to be bulding these cities ? Maintaining the Power lines ? the Sewer Systems ? the Roads ? Won't work-MEN have to be allowed into these cities for these tasks ? And wouldn't there be a police force there ? I wonder how the Saudi's feel about training females to be the police officers in this women-only city ...
