The ramifications of this are really confusing, as many hasty decisions here in KSA are.\u00a0\u00a0If every woman who wishes to smoke shisha has to drag her husband, brother or son with her, the result will be scores of men and women mingling together in public!\u00a0\u00a0 Didn’t they think of that?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The message here is that women are not capable of making their own decisions and that men are more intelligent and superior in every way and must decide what is best for their wives, daughters, and sisters, regardless of the women\u2019s wishes.\u00a0\u00a0I don\u2019t buy into the BS that a man needs to decide what is best for me.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
By now we all know the harm that smoking can cause to humans.\u00a0\u00a0But as long as there is no law against smoking, adults should have the right to decide for themselves whether to smoke or not.\u00a0\u00a0I am an adult and I am perfectly capable of making my own decisions regarding my life, my image, and my health. \u00a0Ahmed Al-Shamman tweeted,\u00a0\u00a0\u201cI am totally supporting this idea because it is sad when I see young women smoking shisha in public.\u00a0\u00a0It makes them look cheap and easy.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s okay for men to smoke shisha because it makes them look cool, or what?\u00a0\u00a0Sadly this is the mentality of so many ignorant and backward men in Saudi Arabia.<\/div>\n

Double standards for men and women.<\/div>\n
