Yes, but most Muslim countries don't enforce Shariah law. No seriously, this is from Saudi Arabia, a Saudi actress in a Saudi film festival:
Also, FYI I'm not a Muslim.
Cite sources, bring up numbers, and then prove they are more because of Islam. So far, you are just posting noise. In Saudi Arabia it is safe to go out at night alone as a woman. This is not true for many rich and developed western countries.
I'll just agree to disagree with you as an ex-Muslim who has traveled the world and has seen the differences. I don't have time to do research for you. Also, I don't think that just Islam is the problem. It's all abrahamic religions. They are all terrible. Islam just seems to have the largest pockets of areas dedicated to denying women's rights at our current point in history. Even my less conservative Muslim family members have a terribly antiquated view on them.
Your personal experiences are yours alone. Don’t project them onto others, and don’t assume all 2 billion Muslims will have the same experiences as you.
Are you Arab by any chance? It may be your culture and not Islam.
