Instead of "thinking something is true about an other country" why don't you research the topic? Laws are easy to find.

While yes, there were some Sharia laws back in the 1980's, many recent laws in the last 20 years have been giving more rights to women.
And that is the problem with many of you Americans, you read something online once about an other country or hear it on one of your news stations, and you instantly believe it without ever checking if it is factual or not.
The same type of people exist in other countries of course, but the blatant ignorance of Americans about other countries is staggering.
XD ah yes, legally it's the same, so that's how it shakes out on the ground for sure!
