How are women treated by male strangers in the middle east?

Are they attacked on the streets just like the way the cologne nye attacks happened?

    They let them know they aren't people. People don't realize the by very definition women are not people. The definition for the word person is: "A human with a penis being regarded as an individual." That definition definitely doesn't fit women now does it? Women are treated like animals in the Middle East because they instead of falling under the definition of "person" they do however fall under the definition for "animal." Trust me, I'm a Doctor, Dr. Jazzercise.

    It depends on where in the Middle East and what kind of woman you are. A local? An expat? Speaking in general, women in the Middle East are treated with respect. Of course there are always exemptions (like everywhere else). Expat women may not be respected when not dressing/acting accordingly the culture and local women may experience some kind of hardship in rural areas of certain countries.

    There are many different cultures in the Middle East and women are treated accordingly.

    in Islam.. Men are actually there to serve women.. we are queens of our homes.. Men are the ones who are supposed to go out, get a job and support the women totally.. AND if we work, our husbands dont get a dime of our salaries.. that is Islam.. How is that for womens rights?... My husband treats me like a precious pearl..

    Yes there are men the world over that abuse their women, but then there are those that dont.. Its the same the world over.. middle east is no different

    I'm a girl from mid east.here everything depend on your appearance and age.if u be a pretty girl or young behaviour it's better.but overally I don't think men consider females as human.we most are used as the s...xual objects .and they always think girls are a lot and we don't have value for fighting for us.and when they marry a girl they easily cheat her and they don't feel guilty.plus all of a proud Ness of a girl Is finding husband unfortunately in our culture😐😐😦😦

    The worst a woman can be treated. However the men aren't as shallow so its easier for a woman to find a mate.

    if you are fully covered you are ignored, if not - expect to be harassed.
