Saudi Women: No More Naked 'Tempting' Eyes? And No Driving - Stay A Virgin

The following stories coming out of Saudi Arabia evidence some very viewpoints that are most disturbing. Sounds like the women are the body slaves of the males. According to the second report, Muslim men may become homosexuals if these archaic actions are not supported with regard to woman.

European blog -- Wind Rose Hotel:   Okay, let's suppose they pull it off and that the Orwellian entitled "Saudi Arabia's Committee for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice" succeed in getting their claim approved, namely that they have the right to stop women revealing attractive and particularly "tempting" eyes in public, well, do you think their problems will magically fade away? If you think so you are wrong. Read this —especially the last paragraph!— to find out why:
Are we to assume that there will be guidelines set on which eyes are deemed the most alluring? And will the thousands employed by the committee to ensure Islamic laws are upheld get the job of deciding which eyes are sexy and which aren't?

It could lead to all sorts of trouble, this. Those poor men landed with the job of gazing into all those sexy, lash-framed pools; how will they stop themselves from being overcome with lust?

And what about the poor women whose eyes aren’t deemed sexy? They could be well offended.

Can't they see that the only reason eyes become extra seductive is because everything else is covered up?

If Saudi men cannot resist a pretty pair of eyes, why don't they get the veils?

BBC News: 'End of virginity' if women drive, Saudi cleric warns A report in Saudi Arabia has warned that if Saudi women were given the right to drive, it would spell the end of virginity in the country.

The report was prepared for Saudi Arabia's legislative assembly, the Shura Council, by a well-known conservative academic.

Though there is no formal ban on women driving in Saudi Arabia, if they get behind the wheel, they can be arrested.

Saudi women have mounted several campaigns to try to overturn the ban.

Aside from the practical difficulties it creates, they say it is also illogical as in trying to keep them under family control and away from men, it actually puts them in daily contact with a male driver. . . .

As part of his careful reform process, King Abdullah has allowed suggestions to surface that the ban might be reviewed. This has angered the conservative religious elite - a key power base for any Saudi ruler.

Now, one of their number - well-known academic Kamal Subhi - has presented a new report to the country's legislative assembly, the Shura. The aim was to get it to drop plans to reconsider the ban.
The report contains graphic warnings that letting women drive would increase prostitution, pornography, homosexuality and divorce. . . .
