These innocent looking photos of 2 Muslim women selling tea on the street in Saudi Arabia have sparked outrage around the world.
The oil rich Saudi Capital of Riyadh cut back on paying oil dividends to its citizens while urging its citizenry to go out and find skilled and unskilled jobs.
As a result, Saudi women are working outside of their homes, according to Breitbart.com.
In the photos circulating on social media, 2 young women are seen selling tea from a stall set up on a street corner in Riyahd.
Women’s rights are nearly non-existent in Saudi Arabia. Most women must depend on their husbands or the Saudi government to provide for them.
The average monthly salary for men in Riyadh is 15,722 SAR or $4,245 U.S. dollars a month.
“Work is not a shameful thing but I wouldn’t want to see our daughters sinking this low, especially as long as our natural resources are plentiful and are disseminated around the world,” tweeted wrote one user.
He added: “May Allah punish the corrupt”.
Another Twitter user blamed foreign feminists for corrupting their women.
“It’s all because of the foreigners, who are allowed to do whatever they want.”
“Will these women’s rights activists be required to find work for these respectable girls? Of course not. All they want [is] depraved freedom.”
Twitter user Albandari wrote: “Work is not shameful but in all honesty nobody would want to see his mother or sister do this job, for heavens’ sake.”.
Interesting…
Princess Deena come get your ppl..
I…don’t know what to say…..?
“Work is not shameful but in all honesty nobody would want to see his mother or sister do this job, for heavens’ sake.”.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Well carry your ass ’round to the Starbucks where all men work at then. FOMF. This isnt religion its chauvinism
How is freedom considered depraved?
Stopped reading at “breitbart”… will look for the story somewhere else in order to get it straight.
Meh. It’s a different culture. Different doesn’t necessarily mean wrong.
Shrugs
So can we get a medical minute update on Jennifer Boyle. Don’t know who she is? Google her. LOL.
Yeah, I have nothing ?
Folks aint outraged about this Flat Tummy Tea EVERYBODY and they mammy in LA and Atlanta selling, and they should. so…….
Dead
When I first came in here that’s what I thought they were selling. ?
that WWoman lost her mind
Bank robberies should be easy: unidentifiable person flees on foot, blends in with crowd.
These poor women can be beaten and hung for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. ?
@Sahara we need your input on this.
Rose Scowlers; y’all ever heard that White Out is racist?
chile whet??? Since when https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cb784b50c1e075c0c7f39f709a7c7b60b07da1a49ba86d27d24d134f70687920.gif
Okay a few things about this article
1. This is my first time hearing about this from Muslim men. I’ve worked with a few Muslim women and my campus has plenty of female Muslim students
2. I can’t understand the blame on western feminism. Yes there is a divide in modern day feminism between women of color and white women, but they all advocate the same things. The problem is the social climate everyone lives in. The only harm to the Saudi women is when they try apply these principles in an overwhelming misogynist environment.
I stopped following a fitness chick when she started hawking that crap. Bish you a lie. And I always thought her butt was bought not worked for.. That solidified it for me
Like that liquid stuff you use to correct things written in pen? Is that th white out you’re referring to?
that’s what I wanna know lololol
But it was invented by a white woman, the mother of one of The Monkees.
This! If you hawk teas, waist trainers, teeth whiteners…. I can no longer be bothered
I trust nothing coming from Breitbart. com. Moving on.
This gif ?
rofl ….dead my expression chile for real dead
She needs help.
…all in these folks business..let these women be oppressed or fight for their own liberation…tend to ya own front yard…we got issues right here at home…
I agree. Just because people live a life different from you doesn’t make it wrong. Everyone has their own beliefs.
Stretch mark removal creams…I’ve tried all that bullshat…these companies need they ass beat for lying…
Me either. I have a client there A WOMAN who owns a real estate company and employs about 40 people…soooo hmmm

Quoting Breitbart now? Naw, I’m out.
They never have to worry about me visiting there ???
This isn’t the first time Jennifer Boyle has done this, she did it to employees at Pete’s Coffee and Tea shop in Chicago.
Mix 1 teaspoon of Organic Turmeric Powder and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice in 2 tablespoons of Cold Pressed, Organic Coconut Oil and massage over stretch marks. Leave on for as long as possible and reapply daily.
lmao is this a real question missy. i feel like you’re just fuggin with me.
Whatusay now?…the road map belly can be gone with turmeric…never knew..?
Ewwww, she quoted the Breitbart site? Dang. I miss the days of reporting on Atlanta’s “elite”. A switch has been flipped off somewhere.
Turmeric is magic! I’ve used it to even my skintone … straight glow!
? Try it!
Thanks for that reminder but Still I don’t see nothing wrong with the picture, am I missing something??? And just like I said, we are here and they are over there so Ummm yeah that’s all I gotta say
I tried it before on myself in a facial…and it stained my skin..so I just cook with it now..but I will try it..?
Damn, that must be some lemonade stand! sheesh
I was there for 10 months while serving in the military (GULF WAR). The women over there want to be us. They constantly stared at us and would turn their heads quick fast and in a hurry if caught looking at us. I would not want to live there or go back there. They have to walk behind their husbands – their husbands have 2-3 wives. Its sad the way women are treated over there. They can miss me with all that BS!
Wow. Thanks for your service. I have seen a hidden camera documentary about Saudi Arabia. It was just awful. One lady was slammed to the ground in the grocery store because she was there alone without a male family escort. The women are property and are treated worse than animals there. So sad and frustrating.
All systems are not firing correctly. ?
On any day in NYC you can go outside and see homeless people BEGGING for money … so I feel like I’m MISSING something here …. Dunkin Donuts Starbucks Orens ALL SELL COFFEE AND TEA … I go to a job everyday to support MYSELF … so I don’t understand it being an abomination for these heffas to work ???? this is an insult to working women EVERYWHERE … foh
No it is a REAL question. And there is a woman running a diversity program telling folks this mess
You’re welcome! I could go on and on about the stuff I witnessed.. sad
I wrote a post about it. I’m not saying it’s a scam, but…
It does that. Get a microfiber cloth to help get it off ?
Oh really?!!? She is just plain miserable.. Someone needs to put that dog down!!
“according to Breitbart.com.”
I stopped right there. You trolling us Auntie?
^^^THIS ALL DAY^^^
I’m disappointed @sandrarose, that you would write an article with so many outright lies in them. First off women are allowed to hold public office 2ndly, it’s not considered an abominable sin for a woman to work – women work in Saudi Arabia; my wife works full-time – where do you get your facts from? 3rdly, while most Saudi women don’t work, their husbands provide allowing for them to better raise their children. Are you arguing the American model of children out of wed-lock, argue over child support for 18 years is a better way to do things? In their culture it’s considered shameful for an elderly lady to stoop selling tea on the corner – exactly what is your issue?
i had to fast forward most of that because her voice is so annoying…and so is she.
Im surprise their controlling men let them sell anything.
The best comment ever!!!

Lololol I know thats right
Thanks for your input from a personal perspective. I made the necessary changes to my post. And I agree that women should stay at home and raise their children to be productive citizens.
Please do! Go on…..
Hello !
I’m Moroccan aka North African , you couldn’t pay me enough to go there . Although women can’t drive there , they do work , open businesses and wear the latest Runway fashions under those tents . All I know is my friends living there are not complaining .
They live better than most Americans , I don’t know why we have to defend them if they like it .
I had a Saudi friend who was also my classmate , she wears the tent ( as I call it ) when she goes back but booty shorts and showing her boob job while popping bottles in HER VIP section in the nightclub every Friday / Saturday .
Never heard her complain about anything , sooo…?
Work ain’t honest but it Pays the Bills. In my Funky Dineva Voice
Hey Girl, hey! I haven’t seen your font for a while. Hope all is well. I figured you are the only Rose that may have more insight. Lol.
I saw a documentary and the ladies did wear designer clothing on their abaya robes. But deep down they were not happy. They just accepted their lot in life.
I’ve been busy with work but life is good , I m on lurk mode until the end of year ??, hope you are doing well .
Them and I can switch places right now , tired of working , driving and not affording Versace gowns LOL.
It’ll probably stop now its International news.
