Oh yes, women are entrapped by the need to "look good for others" as they're too immature to have their self-worth tied to anything but how others perceive them. It makes sense when I actually think about it, thankfully men aren't as immature and don't care how their looks as perceived, so no need to cover them. I don't know how I didn't see the logic behind it before. 

so you are saying women and men think alike? You should really read up on the differences of how men and women think and act. Oh you are one of those who think we are equal in every aspect? that explains it then! Well keep thinking that way.

Your ability to come up with conclusions about me based on how I re-phrased what you said is astonishing. 

No, women and men are different biologically. To imply that these biological differences make women "entrapped" but how their looks are perceived though is demonstrably false and has no scientific basis, and in the west, your conclusion would be labelled rightfully as "sexist".

I wouldn't object if you actually pointed differences between men and women that do stem from those biological differences, of which there are many, and non of those differences require a women to dress modestly or be one of the four wives of a man.

I still say Saudi Arabia's investments are to force Sharia Law onto the rest of us. That's just how petty and oppressive the Saudi royal family is.

I think you need to read about MBS a bit more. The guy has deep disdain for Islam and its teachings, in fact, a large portion of the royal family in KSA has always been liberal and care little about Islamic teachings (a large portion of the same family is disturbingly religious though). Foreign policies aside, MBS is the best king to rule Saudi Arabia when it comes liberalising the country and giving it more social freedom, women can finally drive (the bar for MBS was never high)

KSA has always managed to use Islam to successfully cast a huge sphere of influence across the globe and inside the country itself. The country was built upon an alliance between between the royal family and religious extremist Wahabis afteral. However, MBS seems to realise there are other ways by which you can rule and manipulate the people, with and without religion. KSA and China will continue to influence the world and moderate content that critical of their policies, I just don't think MBS cares at all about content that deconstructs and criticises islam. If I were you, I'd worry more about how certain factions of liberal societies are hell bent on treating Islam with kid gloves coming to its defence in the most bizarre contradictory ways imaginable.
