It's only funny because the makers of American Dad and Family Guy make fun of EVERYBODY, EVERYWHERE and EVERYTHING. Including themselves, all the time. Even in this song they kinda make fun of Americans too. I just thought that the comment at the end by the yt video poster was off. I don't think it's an "Islamic treatment of women" rather than a certain interpretation mixed with many other issues. However, I never lived in Saudi, so I don't know much. Can anyone give me some light?
ouch that's a lot of false stereotyping, some of it is not so false but i think most is pushing the stereotype to the max. but hey who said it was comfortable being a woman anywhere in the world?
No it isn’t :) For some reason, even when all my friends dislike living here, I think it’s not the worst place for woman. I’ve been to many countries and KSA suits me the best. I’ve been in situations where “alhay2a” questioned me and my friends for no reason but it wasn’t a big deal! But gotta say that’s only in the eastern province. I’ve studied in Riyadh and looking back, I admire my self surviving during that phase :b
