It is in Saudi Arabia's best interest to allow women to fully participate in its society, and this includes the right to vote and run for office.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
On the whole, it is the rights and freedoms of all citizens that are crucial in Saudi Arabia and from those the rights of women will emanate.
The Saudi government's denial of basic rights to women is not only wrong, it hurts Saudi Arabia's economic development, modernization and prosperity.
The way women today are treated in Saudi Arabia is a direct result of the education our children, boys and girls, receive at school.
On campuses, where Liberal softies still rule with an iron fist, feminism is as safe as a city with no women drivers. That is the only thing I support about Saudi Arabia, by the way.
In effect, Saudi Arabia legitimizes fundamentalism, religious discrimination, intolerance and the oppression of women. Saudi women not only can't drive, but are also told by some clerics that they mustn't wear seatbelts for fear of showing the outlines of their bodies.
We won't stop until the first Saudi license is issued to a woman.
Having the vote is just symbolic. There are still many issues on which women don't have any right and, in many countries, where women are given very very few rights.
I'm rooting for Saudi Arabia getting a seat on the U.N. Human Rights Council.
Losing their reproductive rights is the first step to how women live in Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan.
The notion that a contemporary woman must look mannish in order to be taken seriously as a seeker of power is frankly dismaying. This is America, not Saudi Arabia.
