or are you referring to societies that lived 100 years ago? Where do you get your information from?
If you are not a Muslim, then you better ask Muslims here and then generalize and tell your personal opinion.. Who said that women are not allowed to study? Who said that women are not allowed to work? Who said that women can not speak about the decision of alpha families?...etc?
And men are given the freedom to stare? This is one of the most naive and funny comments I ever crossed by in QL. Are you telling that Islam is giving men the freedom to stare at women? Do you know that any Muslim man who stare at a woman (with bad intention) is considered similar to a man committing adultery? Do you know that the prophet "Mohammed" said that as any human being, we have eyes that will surely cross by things that might seduce us and play our minds, and that is okey as far as it was a natural and innocent glance (because we are not blind and will surely see things like that), BUT looking back again and staring (with bad intention) is HARAM and considered as committing an adultery.
Islam did not say any of what you are telling. Quran is written in a complex Arabic language which can not be easily understood by everyone. Some non-Arabs in some countries understand the verses in other ways and come up with their own conclusions and rules. It is not what religion says, but what they understood due to language barriers.
You might say, for example, hey then why a Muslim man can marry more than one and a woman can't. For each of these questions, I can give you an answer. Just don't blame any religion that you don't believe in and come up with your own conclusions.
