Saudi cleric warns driving could damage women's ovaries

Quote:

A leading Saudi cleric warned women who drive cars could cause damage to their ovaries and pelvises and that they are at risk of having children born with "clinical problems."

Sheikh Saleh Al-Loheidan's widely derided remarks have gone viral as activists claim a website urging women to defy their country's driving ban has been blocked in Saudi Arabia.

"If a woman drives a car," Al-Loheidan told Saudi news website sabq.org in an interview, "it could have a negative physiological impact ... Medical studies show that it would automatically affect a woman's ovaries and that it pushes the pelvis upward."

Explained Al-Loheidan, "We find that for women who continuously drive cars, their children are born with varying degrees of clinical problems."
The controversial comments, published Friday, were widely interpreted throughout Saudi Arabia as an attempt to discourage women in the country from joining a popular online movement urging them to stage a demonstration by driving cars on October 26.

....

So it is OK for a woman to ride in a car, but if she drives, it affects her ovaries? I think we need to instruct Saudi women on how to use a stick shift. I suspect they are doing it wrong.

Yep, women are inferior in so many ways. Someone should tell Marilyn vos Savant. And scientific studies have proven that black people aren't as smart as white people, but they forgot to tell Neil Degrasse Tyson. It's truly amazing what people will claim studies have "proven". And it's truly amazing how many idiots will believe what they want to believe and claim the "studies" are the absolute truth.

I heard a few days ago a Saudi nut head warned the danger of women to Saudi Arabia becoming loose lesbians. Heard it on the radio and well you know...
