RIYADH (Reuters) - Tired of playing second fiddle to men in conservative Saudi Arabia, five women decided if you can’t beat them, join them.
Al Watan newspaper said the five women underwent sex change surgery abroad over the past 12 months after they developed a “psychological complex” due to male domination.
Women in Saudi Arabia, which adopts an austere interpretation of Islam, are not allowed to drive or even go to public places unaccompanied by a male relative.
The newspaper quoted a senior cleric as saying the authorities have to fill what he described as a legal vacuum by issuing laws against sex change operations.
An interior ministry official told al Watan such cases are examined by religious authorities, and sometimes by psychologists, but those who undergo sex change are never arrested.

As soon as they start to think outside the box…
For now, they are trained to believe what they are told…Islam equates terrorism, Islam oppresses women, Wahabbis are enemies, democracy is good e.t.c. e.t.c…

I hope not…People who think like me offend too many people…People are just happy with the status quo and they don’t like their thinking to be disrupted…
It’s just safer and easier to believe whatever we are told…If democracy, liberation, freedom and justice means millions of dead and dying, so be it…Why challenge it?
