You simply do not get it. The females are not out in the street, they are must be cared by male relatives. This is why inheritance laws gives men greater 
inheritance. You make it sound as if the male family members would nor want to, that it would be burdensome for them, and that this sort of system fosters a disingenuous relationship so the mother can be reassured she is cared for. That makes no sense. Lets say Islam split the inheritance money evenly between male and females. The mother, usually elderly now and not in the job market, would still need to be supported to some degree by her children. Would she indulge her daughters now too since they received an equal portion of her husbands inheritance?

In the US the wife gets the inheritance. In an Islamic state, the son is compelled to care for his mother. Why are you hell bent on twisting this in six different ways to make Islam look bad?[/quote]
My dear, inheritance laws are enforced, culture is not.  We can all safely assume that if male relatives have to be taken to court to compel them to pay maintenance, then there is not much goodwill left in the family.

The elderly mother can invest the money or buy property.

It doesn't take much to make this arrangement look bad.[/quote]
