Or maybe we should be patting ourselves on the back for inventing the telegraph rather than twittering about Google Wave on our iPhones. #women

truly truly sad and horrifying - what exactly are our national family values? #women

That's utterly appalling. I never realized the situation was quite that bad for American women. #women

This is an important point, and an interesting one that sheds light on the discussion, but could you maybe explain why you wrote "whites" and then "minorities"? Shouldn't "whites" be "majority"? Especially since this is a discussion focused on gender/sex issues - so including using "whites" in this context, instead of "minorities" makes it stand out even more as odd? #women

I've been waffling on which newsweekly to keep: Time or Newsweek. This may be a point for Newsweek.
I appreciate Shriver for bringing it up, but they could have done a whole issue on sexual violence and rape culture. That's a huge indication that no, we have not come that far. #women

Errr... did they just stick this sentence into that paragraph at random? Because a statement like that is pretty powerful evidence that there's a long-ass way to go, and they're listing it in the section that seems to imply we're catty self-sabotaging whiners. What? #women

Saudi women face some incredible structural and cultural challenges in their efforts to enter the workforce. However, in the time I spent living there and meeting Saudi students every day, I was very impressed with how these women were determined to forge a place for themselves in the workforce without turning their society on its ears.

My problem with these places being the pioneers is that if anything bad such as sexual harassment is reported (highly unlikely), it'll make society's acceptance of mixed gender workplaces even further away.
ETA: I mentioned he's a Prince to imply that he gets to do whatever he wishes in his companies without fear of prosecution.

My point is, I'm not sure if it's a sentiment felt by women across the Middle East but outside of Saudi, but from personal experience I wouldn't say that MOST women in the region agree with such limiting rules regarding gender separation in public, etc. Younger generations and the work of women described in the article are bringing about - slow - change.

Also, when I exercise, I think about food less -- I still want to eat and stuff, but I experience fewer cravings, so I make better choices.
To sum up, they can pry my Nikes from my cold, dead feet.

For a good laugh, google their study on the benefits of ephedra.
