A few western myths need to be dispelled I think.
The UAE is ranked as a leading country in gender equality in the region, according to the World Economic Forum.
Women in the UEA have increasing roles in government, the state sector, business and the military. The Constitution of the UAE guarantees equal rights for both men and women. Under the Constitution, women enjoy the same legal status, claim to titles, access to education, the right to practice professions, and the right to inherit property as men. Women are also guaranteed the same access to employment, health and family welfare facilities.
77% of Emirati women enroll in higher education after secondary school and make up 70% of all university graduates in the UAE. 46% of UAE university graduates in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) are women.The literacy rate of women in the UAE is 95.8%.
Women graduates in the UAE excel in government, engineering, science, health care, media, computer technology, law, commerce, business, entrepreneurship and the energy industry. The UAE is the first country in the region to enact legislation requiring female board members in every company and government agency.
Can they do all that withought permission though?
Woman cant marry withought permisson,woman cant open a bank account withought permission,they can leave there home alone or travel withought permission.They cant dress as they wish,nor can they interact with men.They cant seek important medical treatment nor have custady of there children in the avent of divorce.
I can onley imagin the punishment for breaking these laws.
I am scared to imagin what punishment that princess is getting if she is still alive.I can understand that she is the doughter of a crown prince,and that her safty is a factor in them not wanting her traveling the world withought protection,however her father is alowed to travel.
I am sure it will take a very long time to relax some of the clasical sharia laws.I do think its time though that woman are given some rights.All they want is human rights.These principles and laws were written thousands of years ago.As you say Mooose its the men who are stopping woman getting there human rights.
For me iv never wanted to go to Dubai.I watch the news,i have seen that people have been arrested and tortured.Jurnalists.acadmics,arrested asked to become spies.People for having a kiss on the beach,for having a drink.I have no interest in the money or bling,id rather go to Egypt for the historey.Never seems to be the right time though,there always seems to be danger or some uprising.

I wouldn’t !! not now
I saw that program Mooose.I dont care where people go on holiday or what they spend there money on,there busines.
I did feel very sorry for that young woman.The onley freedom she had was sky diving,can you imagin that.A very brave young woman,she dident just moan about it all,she escaped twice knowing she could be killed.Woman have no say in that country,its a case of not seen and not heard.I really hope she is alive and that she helped in some way changed things.Perhabs if Dubai can change so quikley from a dusty old town to the las vagus of the middle east in 50 years,then there might be a chance that some of the laws on people can change too.I wont hold my breath though.I think evryone who watched that film would want to know how she is.

I think the more mental health is studied the more is learned.Having been ill with mental health problems for so long it has gave me an insight in to my illness and a little insight to geniral mental health.
I think yes,they would be very depressed and that depression due to the circumstanses would be considerd mental illnes.I think they would be put on medication to help them deal with the worry and stress.circumstansual depression if sever enough would cause black depression that would need medication,i would think anyways.Just my vew.
I think it’s the term mental illness which I have a problem with. The definition of a mental illness is ” a condition which causes serious disorder in a person’s behaviour or thinking.” To me that signifies a way of acting which isn’t conducive to “normality” or logic and not within the normal parameters of behaviour ( if normality is deemed to be aspired to). If someone is depressed due to circumstances which would depress virtually anyone, it isn’t a mental illness or sign that their brain needs treating but their circumstances. Mentally ill people in my eyes are people with disorders of their brain and not people who are depressed due to lifes events which would depress anyone.
Like certain illnesses, such as diabetes, anxiety disorders might be caused by chemical imbalances in the body. Studies have shown that severe or long-lasting stress can change the balance of chemicals in the brain that control mood. Studies also have shown that anxiety disorders run in families, which means that they can be inherited from one or both parents, like hair or eye color. In addition, certain environmental factors — such as a trauma or significant event — might trigger an anxiety disorder in people who have an inherited susceptibility to developing the disorder.I think this to be true.Ifeel that prelonged stress is bound to triger an imbalance in the brain in some people.
