Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Saudi Arabia ends gender segregation in restaurants
Until recently, restaurants in Saudi Arabia were required to have men-only entrance and women and family entrance separately, at least officially. But now, it is up to restaurants whether to maintain segregated entrances, according to the ministry of municipalities and rural affairs. This will certainly help restaurant owners save space, equipment, and people especially for cafes and fast food restaurants. But won’t women feel secure or comfortable to have a dedicated entrance for them?
This is part of the liberalization moves in the oil-rich super-conservative kingdom under the crown prince who took power in 2017. Last year, women were allowed to get driver’s licenses, and this year, they became free to travel abroad without the consent of a male guardian.
Enjoy reading the article and think if a women-only entrance or cash counter is a segregated or preferential treatment.
