They cannot drive. The ordeal of the “Qatif girl” is a horrifying reminder of the insecurity and injustice of women’s lives in Saudi Arabia. In 2006, the young woman was gang-raped and later was nearly victimized again when the religious-dominated justice system sentenced her to 200 lashes for being alone in a car with a man to whom she was not married. She was only spared after King Abdullah heeded international protests and pardoned her. The country still has the lowest female employment level in the world. Unesco figures show that women make up 58% of the total Saudi student population, but only 16% of the workforce. Segregation and the state policy of male guardianship mean women can only work in all-female environments, normally schools and hospitals. Women can lose their jobs if a male guardian informs the employer he wishes her to leave.
