tan117933, I am afraid your comment is not going to help the fledgling development of democratic and equality ideas in the Middle East. To say that "women are more powerful" is in my estimation an in-the-face insult to both men and women. You would be engaging the very oppositional ideas you hope will diminish, and simply hand a male-dominated society additional ammunition to dig in its heels.

It heartening to note that young women assert. That is indeed a good beginning for male dominated islamic society. This clearly shows clergy's days are numbered even in Islamic society. So also conservatives days are also numbered. It is true humanistic approach of democracies are asserting and that is a very good sign in the 21st century. The Sheikh should change with the times and give appropriate and acceptable person he should appoint as PM lest he is houned. After all 21st century of re-engineering of human perceptions for better world.
