A stand to end male guardianship in Saudi Arabia

I've come accross a very optimistic article and I've decided to share it with you.....
Women in Saudi Arabia started "The Saudi Arabia Movement", which aims at ending male guardianship over women. The women in Saudi Arabia demand equal rights, including the right to vote, drive, work, study, marry, or travel. Up to now, the women need their husband's, father's, brother's, or son's permission even to have access to health care. The movement started as a Facebook and Twitter page. The women decided to end their daily suffering by registering for the upcoming elections, which take part in September. No wonder they were turned away, as women in Saudi Arabia cannot take part in the elections. Eventhough they were denied participation, the women made a stand for equal rights. Let's hope that one day women in Saudi Arabia will not be treated as property owned by men.
