'vexed' makes it sound

almost whimsical. 'vexed' makes it sound like they're brushing a fly away. well, they think of women as possessions. they think of women as below a pet. they, without hiding it, ridicule a woman for SITTING AT A TABLE IN A RESTAURANT (even while wearing the veil). they KILL women for simply talking to a man who is not related to her.

they are pieces of steamin shite in my book. fuck them and fuck every man who is afraid of women (as these 'men' obviously are) and takes that fear and uses it AGAINST an entire gender.

that's right fuck them all

Generation Faithful
Young Saudis, Vexed and Entranced by Love’s Rules
By MICHAEL SLACKMAN
............................That suggests that Saudi Arabia’s strict interpretation of Islam, largely uncontested at home by the next generation and spread abroad by Saudi money in a time of religious revival, will increasingly shape how Muslims around the world will live their faith. Young men like Nader and Enad are taught that they are the guardians of the family’s reputation, expected to shield their female relatives from shame and avoid dishonoring their families by their own behavior. It is a classic example of how the Saudis have melded their faith with their desert tribal traditions.
“One of the most important Arab traditions is honor,” Enad said. “If my sister goes in the street and someone assaults her, she won’t be able to protect herself. The nature of men is that men are more rational. Women are not rational. With one or two or three words, a man can get what he wants from a woman. If I call someone and a girl answers, I have to apologize. It’s a huge deal. It is a violation of the house.”.............

.....................Three days later, in a nearby restaurant, Nader and Enad were concentrating on eating with utensils, feeling a bit awkward since they normally eat with their right hands.
Suddenly, the young men stopped focusing on their food. A woman had entered the restaurant, alone. She was completely draped in a black abaya, her face covered by a black veil, her hair and ears covered by a black cloth pulled tight.
“Look at the batman,” Nader said derisively, snickering.
Enad pretended to toss his burning cigarette at the woman, who by now had been seated at a table. The glaring young men unnerved her, as though her parents had caught her doing something wrong.
“She is alone, without a man,” Enad said, explaining why they were disgusted, not just with her, but with her male relatives, too, wherever they were. ......................
