Saudi women launch lingirie shop boycott.

[panamania79 2]

I know most of u think Saudi women are so opressed and yes there are manythings there that are ridiculous for sure. I lived there for only six months but it was enough to get the general idea. I met many women who hate the fact they cant drive, and participate in many things. However many also love it there. Its peacefull, beleive it or not some believe in wearing niquab, they have no responsabilities like here. They never have to worry about bills, or taking theier kids to the doctor or running errands. Hubby has to do that. They get maids to clean and do laundary or even just some who come and iron . They do cook every day and they go to each others homes many times to socialize and have fun. And yes under that niqab they wear very stylish europieon and western clothes with nice shoes the whole nine yards. They can shop for almost anything from Italian shoes to Turkish funrinture. They have the best of the world there. And after arrriving my mother inlaw bought me several items "lingirie" . Yes I hated many things but I also saw many things that were nice there. So I guess I wanted to say that not all saudi women live in miserie some like thier lives. Its less stress, than we live here.

I was at Istanbul IAP a few weeks ago, and saw a flight boarding for Jiddah, and all the women were wearing the same style dress with their faces covered, and the men were wearing the same terry-cloth style dress. It's pretty sad that a country would impose such extreme laws upon it's citizenry.

I imagine that KSA is probably the worst country to be in if you're a woman.

Ok yes to some extent, but please don't associate it with Islam as I wear the hijab and no one is imposing it on me.

So back to the topic. Just what do you wear underneath that cute hijab?

Why you gotta be a hater and insensative to other cultures and their women?!!

The topic is lingerie. NOthin' hateful about that. You are drawing the wrong conclusion.
