    Alright, and here are my questions.
    Are women allowed to read or be out in public without a man? I think you said they could be out in public before but I'm not sure about reading.
    Are women considered as equal as men? Like if you wanted a divorce your wife also had the same rights as you and if she wanted a divorce she could get one.
    Would a boy my age be considered a man in SA?
    Is singing in public allowed? I know it sounds really stupid but I remember watching this old American Dad episode called "Stan Of Arabia" (That episode is actually how my fear of SA even started) and Francine nearly was put to death for singing.
    Speaking of that episode, have you seen it? Thoughts?
    And one more women question: do they have to wear hijabs, and what happens if they don't?

    Thanks for answering Koolo

    because if no one challenges it, how can it ever change? it's quite simple...

    and it doesn't matter how many people oppose the change if they're in the wrong.

    how are they dumb for fighting horrible laws that basically enslave the country to a particular religions way of life? it's not dumb, it's necessary if it's ever going to change

    wrong based on who? your beliefs? if an entire country BELIEVE something is RIGHT..and they apply it ONLY to their citizens...the f--- you want?...is harm being done to you?...if people will break clear rules then they deserve what follows..or is the rules ok to be challenged just because its related to religion? you cant flush a toilet after certain time in Switzerland...but im not fighting it, im just gonna accept it
