[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous]I think the big thing you're missing here is choice.  These women CHOOSE this lifestyle.     [/quote]

Some Saudi women also chose that lifestyle...[/quote]

NP here. No, they aren't choosing anything so much as accepting a choice that has been made for them by men. [/quote]

This    I know you will tell us all we are wrong because no one can disagree with you.  8 can choose to be whatever kind of women I want to be.  Sure some people will look down on me (mostly other moms) but [b]I can be a WOHM who barely sees my kid, can be a SAHM who stifles my kids, or can be a SAHM who spends all her husband's money and leaves the kids to the nannies.  Sure, some may roll their eyes and some may look down on me.  But that's about it.   Saudi women have that same lifestyle choice?  I think not. [/b][/quote]

Why do you think not?  There are Saudi working mothers and SAH moms and others who spend their husband's money and leave the kids to the nanny. What makes you think these Saudi women don't exist? [/quote]

First NP here. Now you're just shit-stirring. I really cannot believe you're this stupid.[/quote]

Are we talking about Saudi women living in the US?  Because that's a whole different ballgame if we are comparing American born women in the US and Saudi born women in the US.  [/quote]

I'm talking about Saudi women in Saudi Arabia. There is no denying that Saudi society is sexist and I have stated that on the opening post.  The point I was raising was that the women described in the article have a life that parallels Saudi culture a lot,  however theirs is seen as acceptable while the other is not[/quote]

Do the Saudi women tolerate their husbands having mistresses?[/quote]

Oh come on. As long as he brings home the money and no diseases, many of the women  on DCUM tolerate their husbands having mistresses.  Don't ask, don't tell. [/quote]
