Saudi Restaurants Putting Up “Women Not Allowed” Signs

Mohammed was the original feminist. He was just like Bill Cosby except he didn’t bother with the pills. And today’s Muslim countries continue to carry on his horrible terribly legacy. And no place carries it on quite like Saudi Arabia. (via Religion of Peace)

As “Women are not allowed” signs have been spotted in front of some restaurants in the kingdom, people took to the social networks to express their displeasure or their satisfaction with the merit and implication of the unusual situation.

Saudis in posts on social networks welcomed the move, explaining that the presence of women in restaurants “caused several social issues.”

“The best thing is to keep women away from restaurants unless they have a male custodian. That way the restaurant is not shut down because of the misbehaviour of an adolescent or mentally unstable woman,” he said, local news site Al Marsad reported on Sunday.

Another blogger, Talal, said that the restaurant managers were right to protect themselves from possible social issues.

“My brother has a restaurant and he says that even though there is a section for families, there are often instances of embarrassment. Several women would come in and would speak loudly without any respect for public behaviour. He says that it is difficult for him to get them to lower their voices,” he said.

Arab Muslim men are of course notorious for not raising their voices above a whisper in public places.

    It would be interesting if all of the women of Saudi Arabia banded together in one gigantic march for women’s rights. There is always the possibility that they would all be shot or hung as “unIslamic”, but then what? Hmmmm…. no more women.

      No more women? Then all those Saudi he-men would have to settle for goats, sheep, and little boys.

            You have an easier time handling smooth stones.

    They can’t get women to keep their conversation down? Welcome to the world.

    The restaurateurs should put up another sign saying, “Rapists, sex-slave traders and executioners receive VIP treatment.”

    Simple business… If burqua covered faces can’t eat, they are taking up seats where paying customers could eat/spend meals!!!

    LOL – and the feminists spend all their time hating Julien Blanc. Gutless cowards.

    Well, we already have the same thing with lesbian bars. I don’t see where the west gets off complaining. Frankly, as far as I care, feel free to exclude anyone from your private business. Men, women, Jews, blacks, whites, gays, Muslims, Protestants, straights, what have you.

    Why do we give a dime to Saudi Arabia? They are behind this whole world mess with Islam, and we just keep on funding them.

    I really don’t care. I have zero empathy for any of them.
