Just a note:
There is still alot of discrimination in the US against women. Most of it goes by completely unnoticed because we're so used to it. The pattern, as it appears to me, is definitely the religious influence in our country.
Same with Islam. Except it is more noticeable because it is allowed to be so extreme. And I do believe it is fear of "pussy power." I think the mindframe is something like this - "If we let them get educated, then they'll start thinking, then organizing, then we lose control." And who wants to lose control? Hey, if guys are getting all excited (bad pun intended) over Viagra pills to maintain "authority" over women by fucking them, clearly control is crucial. I don't think its the pussy itself, but more the loss of control over a gender that they were always allowed to do whatever they wanted with. That kind of unquestioned power - just for being born in a culture that happens to revere male domination - goes to a person's head. And as it is so excepted, nay, considered the laws of their religious beliefs that govern them, it does not surprise me that they would try to reel women back in where they can keep a closer eye.
Religion. Always there to help us discriminate against SOMEONE.
