I hope you mean disturbing?

That is really a stupid law no doubt. Except it doesn't exist. LOL
If a female is giving a birth in Saudi Arabia, why does she go to the hospital if no female doctors are allowed and at the same time, male doctors are not allowed to touch her?
 
If you restrict men from examining women, obviously you need female doctors. Common sense. Also, many cases were no qualified female doctor is available, priority is always human life and human health, so any doctor can surely examin her.
 
Anyhow, a good fictional joke. Just only if it was true. Only that.

I'm really glad to hear it... I must admit, I thought it sounded pretty unlogical to me... after all Saudi-Arabia is a civilised country. But that's why I asked, to find out if it was true or not... So thanks for the answer. Big smile

Thanks for clarifying.

Is it true that women are not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia, or is it just a stereotype too?

Yes, that is a fact and a law too.
 
I tried to keep an open mind and read all the arguments in favor of prohibiting female driving, and so far, it is a complete joke.
 
It is a matter of time and I'm sure ladies will drive in Saudi Arabia. The pressure is already as all neighboring Gulf states made it a right for female to drive a vehicle.
