    Yeah, the US has moved backwards pretty quickly regarding women’s reproductive rights.

    Do women in Saudi Arabia need male permission to have an abortion though? Because that’d be a strike against them. As well, I don’t imagine sex outside of marriage is allowed…

      Yes

      Not really, because there’s no reason for a married couple to want an abortion, birth control is legal and a woman can choose not to get pregnant. Children are guaranteed welfare, including healthcare, in Saudi Arabia.

      No it isn’t.
