Allowing women drivers in Saudi Arabia will be 'end of virginity'

Academics at the Majlis al-Ifta' al-A'ala, which is Saudi Arabia's highest religious council, said the relaxation of the rules would inevitably lead to “no more virgins”.
It warned that allowing women to drive would "provoke a surge in prostitution, pornography, homosexuality and divorce".

Within 10 years of the ban being lifted, it claimed, there would be "no more virgins" in the Islamic kingdom.

All you can do is just shake your head.
How can you take ever take them seriously again.
The final nail in the coffin, the absurdity of it all.

Understanding reality means accepting human irrationality otherwise you must accept that you are the crazy one however nuts that sounds.

In defense of the other society, when a guy gets married he gets something brand new and willing to learn. Since this is a car forum, it is as if one is the first one to open the hood and see everything shiny and new. He develops it. She has waited a long time and she is ready.

Over here, in the name of freedom, its like getting what was once a damn good car and now, who knows how many have used it. we try and fix it but as often we dump it (divorce one in every two). You never see women lining up on the sidewalks or humiliating themselves on some stage for drunken idiots or dropping off babies at their parents.

They laugh at us just as much as we scorn them.

I'd rather have a well engineered, well cared for car with lots of upgrades from experience, track tested and proven for the task at hand, than a brand new untested model, full of hidden bugs, gottchas and needed lots of dealer service and TSBs applied to keep it running.

Not to mention, must be nice for women living in a prison world called life run by a bunch of dillusional and potentially violent control freaks.

It's hard to believe that any man is that insecure about having not been the only one, but that is typically the driving force behind their fragile ego

You seriously think that there is no prostitution or strippers...

It is just more hidden.......as well as the abuse and sex slavery that is also a part of that society

Not to mention the women that are killed or mutilated or the damage done trying to get corrective surgery that is more in vogue....

I'd much rather have freedom
